Put my name down for the Tudor panda chrono

[JParm]

Got on the list for the white dial with black sub-dials; a true panda.

Just sold my vintage Snowflake and Apollo 11 50th Speedy about a week ago, as those funds are going towards a different toy. Well, the watch game always finds a way to bring you back

Waiting on my OP41 in Turquoise that I ordered in September, and now this new Tudor chrono. Time will tell which comes first...in the meantime, I'm sticking with this today.

Obviously you need a vacation. Get outta town. Get some rest. Take some pictures.

I know it

We are heading to Delray Beach without the kids next week and skiing with the kiddos in Breckenridge the following.

I need to get my mind off of watches and cars...

I’ll be ready Jesse! What time do we leave?

[Etschell]

I did as well.

I'm waiting on a CHNR and DSSD JC or I would as well. I wonder what the average wait times will be at the AD's for this one.

I'm hoping a couple months at worst, considering they're supposedly available "now".

Something tells me this chrono will punch way above it's weight.

Can't wait to hear your thoughts.

My AD said they’re getting their first shipment of the new Tudors today so hopefully it’s not a long wait.

Yeah Dan, this is going to be this years winner in my opinion.

I totally saw you selling off that A11 when you were on the hunt.

That's the 3rd Speedmaster that has come and gone in my collection. I think I like the idea of the watch more than the actual watch itself, once it is in my hands.

Let's be honest, I probably still haven't learned my lesson and will be back to a Speedy at some point...

Of course. I think you need a Soyuz Speedy.

I’m on my 3rd Speedy as well and I’m considering selling it. Something’s wrong in my head.

i dont care if it has been to the moon. that does nothing for me. i just dont like the design of it.

[bp1000]

Ordered the black dial on bracelet too

Don't think it will be too long. Looking forward to seeing it in person.

The case seems to sit almost flat on the wrist, despite it still being 14mm thick. But I have some speedmasters of this same thickness. They work for me.

[bp1000]

Just get one of the new classic speedies - a solid all rounder.

[samson66]

You kept the right one at least. That's my grail watch right there!

Sent the Apollo packing huh? What didn't you like about it? I was so looking forward to that release since I was born the same year as the moon landing. But it just never resonated with me for some reason. I still like it be don't regret passing on it.

Looking forward to your panda incoming!

It looked great in pictures and felt nice on the wrist, but two things bothered me:

1.) It felt a bit too chunky / think on my wrist, and that's saying a lot as I've gone through a few PAMs before
2.) I never found myself reaching for it...I would always pull out my other watches first

The 2nd one is a big one for me; if I'm not showing you the love that I'm showing others, then why keep you around?

[Chadridv]

Looking good! The new Tudors look great.

i agree. cant wait to get this one.

[turkeysub93]

Cool looking watch.

Just get held up on the fact that it is a chrono/diver hybrid. I get that this makes it twice as useful...but feel like there's an underlying identify crises.

I've got a couple watches that can perform double duty. I call that a benefit, not a crisis.

[JParm]

Well, that was fast.

Just got a call from my AD and they got both the white and black (as well as the silver cased 58). They sold it all except for the white one, which they will hold for me until I visit tomorrow.

Would love to skip out on work, but my son has a soccer match tonight and I'm not missing out on that for a watch.

We'll see how it goes tomorrow; I hope it sings to me like it does in pictures!

Look forward to seeing it on your wrist JP. Think we have similar build

[Tensai]

Definitely Daytona-like.
I guess it's all relative. I am waiting to get out of town too (and I live in Palm Beach).

[garyk]

At last, an actual Panda to talk about on this forum!!!
