Discussing the future of Tudor....

[Alfredo.]

Hey all! So I've been thinking lately...

Tudor has certainly had its ups and downs through the years. Where I'm from Tudor has always had a strong market presence, like most of Europe. I understand Tudor was re-introduced to the US Market with the launch of the Heritage line.

Seeing that the Heritage Chrono was launched 10 years ago, where do you now see the brand heading?

Here are a few questions or thoughts I find interesting:

-Tudor makes hundreds of watch variants, its crazy... I've never seen anyone sporting a modern advisor, for example, out in the wild. Much less the dressier watches.

-The Black Bay family becomes the staple of the Tudor brand and is gradually upgraded or revised much like Rolex.

-The Black Bay family is split up or dropped and the Tudor Submariner makes a comeback.

-Seeing that the Heritage Chronos have been replaced by the Black Bay chrono, and no longer made- or at least that's the info given to me by my AD... What's next for the brand in regards for chronos? I'd personally love to see a return of the Big Block / Prince style watches. I think people are finally starting to pay attention to these older watches and realizing how great they really are.

-With all the crazy things going on in the watch market, I'm sure this moment is critical for Tudor if it wants to remain where it stands today with all the love we see for the 58 models, for example.

-I personally fear that, as we saw through the early to mid 00's, that a return of a model the likes of the Iconaut would doom Tudor.

-Finally, a weird thought I had the other day that I keep fantasizing about: Precious metals... If Tudor made a PM version of the 58 I'd be ALL OVER IT... What about you?

It's all meant to have a little bit of fun and see what your personal thoughts are, I'd be very interested to know as I love my Tudors.

All the best,
Alfredo
