There’s actually a valid argument that Tudor is reliving the golden age of Rolex in its toolish, more affordable nature. Rolex is moving upstream, and so is tudor. Is it the “new” Rolex? Yet to be seen. Do they make an excellent product that caters to what people have been wanting? You bet your sweet ass.

Tudor stays. Sorry buddy

I think the blue bezel version is underappreciated. Really a great looking watch!

I'm not a fan of Tudor and never will be, but I have no objection to the Tudor threads. I just don't read them.

But I do wonder if OP was drunk when he posted this thread.

Clever marketing perhaps by the sales people among us who are looking now to Tudor as a cash cow?
Don't be sheep guys, if you want a Rolex then wait.

OP is in Brisbane (according to profile), same timezone as me so its just past 11:30am

Entirely possible if the OP is Australian as today is Friday.

Thanks - I love it! Also love my Rolex collection. As far as I’m concerned plenty of room for both brands in my casa!
