I hate when I have to guess what new acquisition a member has coming their way.

But I don't have to................YOU DO!

Here are few hints:

-has at least one feature not found on any Oyster I have now.
-a long ago discontinued reference.
-never seen one on TRF [yet].
-the size has JJ's SEAL OF APROVAL!

The winner will have the chance to pay my American Express bill.

Delivery from the other side of the world so it might take a week or so to get here.

What do ya' think?

unclesallie · 10 April 2008, 11:32 PM

Trurolexer · 10 April 2008, 11:35 PM

Dan Pierce · 10 April 2008, 11:36 PM

Can't wait to see what it is! Congrats!

redshirt1957 · 11 April 2008, 12:03 AM

Is the new, to you, feature a 24 hour hand? I can answer that as I know you have a JUB GMT.

timackerman · 11 April 2008, 12:11 AM

Ok I give up, please just tell us

Chris B · 11 April 2008, 12:13 AM

C,mon Dan just spill the beans,

toph · 11 April 2008, 12:14 AM

If it is not what redshirt says, is it an explorer 16550 with cream dial

Dan Pierce · 11 April 2008, 12:16 AM

No 24 hour hand. Does have a bidirectional rotating bezel.

BINGO Peter! Can't afford a Monte Carlo

but yes, it's a Tudor Date+Day.

Here's a borrowed pic. Mine will need a thorough cleaning and a bit of polish.
Now Peter, where shall I send my Am Ex bill?

I'll pass on the bill Dan

....But I will gladly take that Big block off your hands.

I guess that because I passed up on a Tudor DD last year.....and have been kicking myself ever since.

I'm glad at least 1 of us did not make that mistake.

Congrats on the choice.Peter.

Thanks Peter.

But the Big Block stays with me!

I 've been eyeing a Tudor DD since I heard my wife say having the day display would been a nice feature.

You don't see them often however lately I've seen more than ever. But I've been lookin' real hard.

Tell me about the one that got away.
