Hi all

hot off the press, I've just made a new Tudor Heritage screensaver

page not published yet, but I thought I would give all my TRF friends a private release

Here's the link http://www.grima.com/screensavers_4.html

Look forward to any feedback

Hi John,

I don't have a Tudor (yet), but that looks pretty good, thanks for posting.......

Hi John I went to Grima today.

I saw for the first time the new Tudor Chrono Heritage.

Man it looks absolutely fantastic, you would love it. I will be getting one for sure, when I can save a few $$$ after my recent vintage purchases.

My guess is you are getting a black one ?

Hey Steve, don't tempt me man..., I'm down in September to see Chris (and hopefully catch up with you). I think if I see the Heritage in person I may jeopordise my marriage by coming out of the store with 2 (TWO) new watches

(there's already another "surprise" with my name on it

)

John you will love it, the dial just sings....
I think it has anti-reflective treatment on the underside of the crystal, so the dial (I saw the black one) looks fantastic, and the dial/hands are very legible (maxi) and classic retro.

The watch box is amazing (piano black timber finish with leather interior), and better than Rolex boxes IMHO. It's really a great package.

Love it - Thanks!!

I got the call from my AD this week and I'm going to check one out today

Not sure if the black or grey dial looks best, will have to see it in the flesh to decide

PS: Thanks for the screensavers John, they are great

Let me know what you think Pete, love to hear your opinion of one "in the flesh".

BTW, which AD do you prefer in Sydney?

PS. I think the grey will be my choice... a few reasons
- has more of a vintage look/feel
- matches the slightly faded/washed out shade of orange used
- a nice change from most of the black or white dial sports model Rolex's
- it may be a little less common, most folk will gravitate to the "safer option" and choose conservative black

but then again, I could be WRONG

I'd be next to you dead in the ground Rob!

Only one new planned, unless I can convince him to give me a free sample as well!

Thanks for sharing John! It works great and it was a great choice. This will probably be my next watch AFTER I recover from the Green Gold Sub! Thanks again!

I won 't say to much so that people think I am shilling because I currently have to put mine up the block.

But... the 22mm bracelet, the way 42mm case hugs your wrist ins amazing ... the quality of this Tudor puts the twice as expensive Rolex sub C to shame.

To me the black dial is beautiful. The grey dial gives you that instant vintage look but once faded the grey dial will probably look to washed out while the black will be like that of the old matted 1680/1665/5512/5513 dials IMHO.

Congrats BTW !
