Sometimes you just have to pick up unknown numbers!

Was thrilled to get the call literally right before I left the office to start the long weekend.

Had my name down at two separate places since the beginning of my search which was well over 6 months. Even more surprised to get the one from the new boutique that opened. Must be a stroke of luck as I happened to pick up the phone when I usually ignore unknown numbers.

Extremely ecstatic since I was also secretly hoping it to would pop up right before my birthday and it did! Special thanks to the local Tudor Boutique.

Been wanting a full ceramic piece and Black Bay for a while and this one is just top notch in person. Ceramic, time only, thinner and lighter. Perfect! First Tudor after long time dipping my toes into the usual brands like Rolex, Omega, etc. etc.

I present to you all, the Tudor Black Bay Ceramic!

Thanks for the read and Happy Easter!

Very nice! I like the idea of ceramic as a case material and probably incurring fewer incidental scratches.

It is beautiful, but I am afraid of its possible fragility.

Thanks!

Definitely something to be mindful off, but still pretty untested. Not like it really matters but I'll be more prone to scratch my watch than ding/drop it under normal wearing conditions... well that's the rationale I took for this one. Hahaha
