Prettiest and most sensible watch at Basel:
I know, my avatar and screen name give away my bias.
But still - isn't this not only the prettiest but also the most sensible watch (price) coming out from the Rolex company this year? Tudor-BW14-001.jpg |

I might agree with that.
That's super sweet.

I like the new blue color but I wished the dial was also blue.

The crown tube completely kills this watch for me, regardless of color.

I've already called my AD. It's the pick of the litter.

Nice pix. The more I see, the more I like.
Unlike the red, which looks best on a strap, the blue looks better on a bracelet, IMO. |

I think I like it most in this picture.
Maybe there's one for me in the future. |

Very nice, with a matching blue dial I think Tudor would have really hit a home run.

I'm digging it more and more! These pictures are the best yet!
As much as I'd like to have seen a blue dial a matte blue dial may have been too much for this watch. I bet Tudor considered a blue dial, tried it, and went with black for that reason. |

Beauty except for the snowflake hands. They should have been either Mercedes or Lollipop hands.

Beautiful, now if only they put a chronometer inside it then it would be nice.
