That black dial is sharp, love the contrast of the white subdials.

I saw these awesome Tudors and thought to myself...

1. I need to add one to my collection.
2. Being the Rolex nut that I have become recently, should I get a Tudor over a Speedy Pro? I love the fact the Tudor is the lil bro to Rolex but the Speedy Pro has history. I can't go down to my local AD and try on a Tudor so its kinda hard to see if it signs on my wrist.

Your thoughts fellow TRF'ers on picking a Tudor over a Speedy Pro. Keep the photo's coming.

SubGMT is that a 79160 ? Were the big blocks the only ones to come with the oyster bracelet ?

Nope...that is the little sister of 79160 big block....the 79260P....it is cheaper, slimmer and have a sapphire crystal that can withstand abuse. Notice the polished lugs...but you can put an original oyster bracelet like mine.

I love the Tudor chronographs. I wish the Daytona had the date function. Here is my favorite watch, a blue Tudor Sub from the early 1990s:
