Its a solid question that I don't know the answer to but I can tell you that they aren't in as high demand as a SS Daytona. I'm looking for one like Dan's myself

I have been after one in the UK for ages without success.

Sorry. I found one. But the price was a joke. I fancy a white dial with black inserts but black dial mmmmm you never know!

Carry on looking for me

Best of luck in tracking one down

Enjoy

Don't think Tudor is sold in Canada so finding new might be tough. Ebay or sale forums are your best bet. Only time I've seen an AD was in Guam.
To answer your question, I think they run in the $2500.00 US range.

me thinks the tudors available at your AD are the newer generation - they look quite different than the classic tudors.

The current line up has it's own design vs the classic Tudor chronos that have Rolex cases, crowns, and bracelets. Not up on the current models, sorry. They might have a few 792XXP models that look very similar to the classics though.
Good luck,

that's probably because they look like something other than a rolex. i don't really care for them myself.

+1 I love the chronos with the Rolex cases, crowns, and bracelets. They just cost so damn much. Oh well, hopefully if the US dollar continues to rise, the watches will go down in price, right?

I bought a NOS Tudor Tiger Chrono off Ebay for about 2100 shipped (not including $130 customs tax coming from Canada )

If you are referring to vintage tudor chronograph, dpending on the model, it may be even more difficult to find than SS daytona.
