Completely unexpected call....

Put my name down for this the day it was announced with my local AD. Never thought I'd get one as was boutique only and seemingly pretty limited, even the AD said probably no chance! However a couple of weeks ago my AD reached out asking if i'd like the one they'd been offered by Tudor, took around 2 seconds to say yes. Really pleased with it, one of those pieces that is much nicer in person than photographs.

Love it! Saw one yesterday in the metal at Tudor event at Bucherer Pentagon City Mall. It wasn’t for sale unfortunately.

Takeaways:
+ great looking watch
+ size was perfect for my 7.5” wrist
+ movement felt really good when winding
+ love the pink dial (really pops)
+ bracelet was really comfortable
+ thickness was ok

- wish it didn’t have snowflake hour hand (clashes with round hour plots)
- knurling on crown not easy to grip
- wish hands were black to contrast better against pink dial

Overall, way more pluses than minuses so I’d buy in a heartbeat. Only Tudor I can say that about … at least for me.
