Tudor Newbie from VA

Hello to all! I actually registered on TRF back in May 2015, before I owned a watch. I started doing research about Rolex watches mid 2014, before exiting the Marine Corps and thought a nice time piece would be a great way to celebrate my service exit.
I really only like the Sub, GMT, and Explorer I models because I feel they are models that fit my lifestyle (active) and I had my heart set on the no-date, 2 line Sub, until I wandered around this forum and the net and discovered the Tudor Heritage BB model! I enjoy the learning about the lineage the two brands share and aesthetically, I began to appreciate the features of the BBB model over the Sub. I'll eventually add a Sub as my second watch, but for now, I couldn't be more pleased with my BBB!

Great watch, congrats. I like that black polishing cloth, never seen one before!

Thank you Old Expat! My AD was actually kind enough to hook me up with that Tudor cloth, the red Tudor book (diary), and the black Tudor product book in the background as well. My AD definitely goes above and beyond for customers, they're both watch nuts!
