Nice pick up. I tried one on the other day.
Just picking up on that old chestnut that it’s a poor man’s Rolex - I think that’s horribly phrased but here’s how we should probably think about it. Rolex is positioned against a particular market based on resources, tastes, desired use. Let’s face it, not everybody can afford a Rolex or a Tudor Black Bay for that matter. I think about the Tudor in terms of being more accessible but with really good genes. So no, not a poor man’s anything. It’s a legitimate watch of first choice. I like the red but couldn’t sell the colour scheme at home. |

I just really like that watch a lot, congrats and hope it gives many years of great service, out of curiosity how does the watch time ? I’m sure it’s within COSC specs but have heard lots say that they are getting better accuracy.

I bought the red BB and the red strap at a Rolex AD. They then called me two weeks later and said they had a sub no date for sale. I bought it as well. Both are great. I will say, the rose gold and red with the BB are stunning. Rolex is more comfortable and a little thinner. For the price however, the BB is a great deal. Quality awesome. The $175 red factory strap is very comfortable.

I had told myself after I got my Tudor Date Day that I probably wouldn’t get another Tudor. It was a bit clunky, the height just seemed too tall for a dressier watch, and the bracelet wasn’t as comfortable as I had expected.
However, I just last week purchased the BB with the red bezel after trying it on. I can’t take my eyes off it. It fits similar to a 5 digit sub, other than the case is taller, yet it seems to be very well balanced. I originally was put off by the faux rivets, but those don’t bother me enough to pass on the watch. The dial, rose gold hands, and the rest just really do work well together. I am very satisfied with the purchase. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Funny I tried in the GMT Tudor and am currently waiting it’s delivery. I know many people comment on the rivets but I just literally didn’t even notice them. Complete non factor for me.

Looks amazing bro, how is the accuracy? I read they are some of the most accurate watches you can buy at the moment
