Incoming New Tudor BB heritage 79730

Passing Time yesterday in Trafford Centre Manchester, due to usual British Bank holiday weather ( rain ) & came across the Tudor BB heritage Steel in AD. So in a Flash I was sat down trying it on & didn't think these would hit the ADs until end of June /July time . So twenty minutes later I walk out of the AD as the proud owner of one the 1st Tudor 79730 sold in the UK . Haven't yet had time to give comparisons or reviews but so far very impressed & the build quality is excellent . One slight moan & there always is , there is no glidelock, or half links on the bracelet. Which means the bracelet can take some adjusting to fit comfortably . It certainly has some weight also & you know your wearing it but soon feels Ok . There are some nice touches to the vintage models & its nice to see lovely chamfers on the case , Riveted links on the bracelet & red line text on the dial. Please enjoy the pictures .

Congratulations. I agree that Tudor should do a half link for each of the bracelet models they make. Great looking watch. Enjoy.

The one I picked up was the only one in the AD . I did ask about the leather strap version,but the Assistant doesn't know what model or variation will be the next incoming .

I really like the watch a lot but just not a fan of the rivet bracelet. If it had the pin screws, I would really considering this just an awesome bang for buck divers watch.
