Incoming Tudor GMT!!

Our first Tudor in the family! I put down a 20% deposit last Sunday for the watch. We wanted the warranty to say that it was purchased in 2018 to commemorate the birth of our son this year, and we hope to hand it to him when he graduates 18 years from now! On the 31st I received a call from the AD that it had arrived and they were ready to ship it out to us. We received the watch today, and it is the first Tudor in our family. I think I showed more enthusiasm than my husband so I would say this is a "joint" purchase, although he gets to wear the watch. Beautiful hefty piece, here it is looking the correct size on my husband's wrist - we still have to have the bracelet resized. Very, very happy about this purchase

Congrats! Great looking watch. Now what’s next for yourself? I’m liking that BB58!

Slowly narrowing the choices before I mark another decade older in 2 years... I love the vintage vibe of BB58, but not my top choice so far

Love the GMT! congrats! I just got the bb58 that I will pass on to my son as well 18 years down the line. Hopefully, it ages well ;). The 58 was my first tudor too and I am seriously so impressed with the quality and the value!

I'm glad we're giving Tudor a shot. Definitely excellent value. Of course, even better it belongs to the Rolex family.
