Had one and flipped it. The bracelet isnt great and that hour hand is horrible. Sold it to a mate of mine and he loves it (his daily was 5 digit Sub) so it all ended well.

It looks great on your wrist, I've always found this blue bronze the most beautiful reference in the line, even considering the new grey dial. That watch is a looker!

PS. Sorry to have missed you in Vegas this year. Was hoping to talk watches, Brazil and lots of other stuff. Next time, my friend!

Definitely the angle, it’s only 2mm bigger, I think that’s 5/64 inch ? By its self you'd barely notice the difference in size.

Yes, that would’ve been much fun to talk at GTG. One day soon we’ll get together, possibly in Brasilia if everything works out.

Espero que tudo esteja meu amigo !

Well I got an email today and a phone call to say my BBH is ready to pick up. It was Tyler's post that inspired me to put my name down. Looking forward to picking this up as I love the green bezel.

Picked this beauty up today. By far the best of the black bays , I have most of them. Take it with a pinch of salt but I don't think they are going to be around for much longer. Get on that list whilst you can.

Yours will probably be ready soon then, wait seems to be 3/4 months at the moment.

Early March. I did ring to double check my name had been registered as the first attempt didn't register. If you like the black bay it's a must have. The green bezel is so beautiful.

I received mine in May, and its in the 1800s. My colleague also has one, in the high 1900s. In case anyone is wondering.

I had a friend like mine so much, he called and put his name on the list. They couldn't give him a timeframe because they mentioned production may stop soon.

there are stock readily available at the counter, I could have bought it right there right then, as long as I buy another piece at the same time. (bronze / GMT / 58 etc)

I have just spoken to an AD about a Black Bay Dark, really not sure whether to pull the trigger or not! Decisions...

This is the exception to my “I don’t like Tudor”... I’d like to try one on.

List was not closed as of last Friday.

If you call and ask to be put through to the watch room Tudor section they can easily confirm.

Its a special edition, not a limited run and a 4 month wait suggests not that bad a list.

Spooky - I put my name down in May. I had all but forgotten. I just got the call at 7:30pm from Harrods to say my watch was waiting my collection - 10 minutes after reading this thread!

Anyway - in the interim I bought and sold number 909. I tried to love it but failed

I'm not going to collect - someone else can benefit.

Will Harrods only call when it's ready? I put my name down via email in April and haven't heard anything yet. When I went in person in July salesman told me late Aug/Sept and I'm wondering if they only call UK phone numbers.

I got mine after 6 months of waiting. After getting the watch wore it for a few weeks but the size wasn’t for me. I kept the BB Harrods till I got the call for my hulk then sold the black bay to a friend. If they made the BB Harrods in the dimensions of the BB58 then. It would be a no brainer for me

I tried one on today. Nice watch and makes my Hulk feel positively dainty.
I liked the toned down green bezel.
Waiting for the call from Harrods.

You have 7 days to pick it up or the watch will go to the next person on the list. My two options were ....1- know someone like a friend or relative in the UK who can pick it up for you - or -2- fly to London when the watch was available to pickup. - Since I have friends in the UK I sent the cash via PayPal for the watch plus a little extra for meals etc. They picked up the watch and sent it to me via DHL which took 4 days to receive.
Hi Bobby.
I live in Singapore and the Sales rep just contacted me after a year, after i send them another email to ask for the status. But my friend is currently in UK. What are the requirements/details Harrods need for someone to collect the watch on your behalf, other than the payment amount? Thanks!
