Looks interesting. I like the 'snow flake' hand.
But will have to see it in normal lighting before
I have a firm opinion.

Of course! Gray market or from other collectors. But you can't buy it at any store.

If it didn't have the rehaut merged into the plots I would buy one, but the way it does that reminds me of a Seiko too much.

That would be nice. Honestly, I can't imagine why Rolex would voluntarily limit its market share by excluding Tudor from the USA for so many years.

The subs are, IMHO, the best offerings Rolex/Tudor have this year.
It is just sad that Rolex/Tudor have abandoned lug holes.......this old curmudgeon will now go & hug his old watches w/ lug holes.........

Lack of Cyclops maybe due to depth rating of 500M/1640Ft

Good that they had the sense to exclude the name of this watch on the dial.

That is just for service. It actually says on the same page that Tudor watches are not for sale in the US.

They'll service them, but not sell them. Crazy.
