The rivets were a hold back of mine too until I wore it a bunch and never even noticed them again.

I’m a fan— love the blue on black. Picked one up on C24 about a month ago. I chose the older variation as I prefer the rose logo and non-riveted bracelet. The ETA movement has been performing incredibly well at -0.5 sec/day.

I love that color combo. I wish they made that combo in 39mm.

It looks ok for me but I still prefer the look of the older vintage Tudor’s

That seems to be a common theme. The ones who complain the most about the rivets are the ones w/ little to no experience with them. To me the vintage styled stair step taper is well worth a few tiny stainless steel dots that end up virtually a non issue to the wearer.

You’re on to something… A common trait many share is echoing preconceived notions about a watch before ever inspecting the thing in person, much less actually trying it on.

Just wait for Watches and wonders that’s coming up. Without fail, you’ll see a whole lot of it.
