Ahh, got it. Thanks!!! Also for reference, do you happen to know the weight of the THC?

Thanks, I was just looking at some sitting in the dealer's display case today; very nice looking and prominent.

I always like when a post starts "I just spent thousands on a watch because I'm saving my money..."

Well, I got it basically new at a very good price so I should be able to come close to recouping my cost if I decide to sell someday.

My pleasure; I really had very little understanding of the watch when I first got it. I thought others might gain from the insight. Besides none have written about it prior.

Congrats on a great piece!

I actually did the same thing with a Tudor Chrono ('big block' seems to be what people call them now?) bought new, about 15 years ago, Lee. Back then, an SS Daytona was just too scarce and way out of my range. Beautiful watch, but for reason I never really bonded with it. It was just a tad too thick for me (back then), and it just made me want a Daytona even more. My Sub and Speedy ended up getting way more wrist time. On a positive side, it's still mint now.

Your Tudor has it's own great look. Enjoy and wear it in good health!

I'm happier with the more modern look then seen on the THC. For me this fit the bill.

I agree that it is a real looker; don't want to tick off the Daytona owners so I won't go quite that far.

I agree, I don't want to take it off my wrist.
