Really like this watch

Nice and substantial. The bracelet is superior to my Rolex bracelets. Running plus 25 seconds over the last 28 days.

Agreed,
Gorgeous! I have a feeling Tudor and Omega and the like will start booming with the lack of Rolex SS sport models available. I’m waiting on my first currently myself a Sub with date, and man it’s hard not to go to a Tudor or Omega while I wait!

Love it! I think it would look great on a navy blue nato too.

It is a cool watch .. a bit chunky IMO, but cool. But other than the BB58 and BB gmt, tudors are easily obtainable as is any non-LE omega . Is business booming for Tudor and omega bc of the incr demand for Rolex ? They prob benefit , but nobody knows by how much. And those who really want a Rolex will eventually find these to just be a place holder in my experience.

It's a really nice piece, no doubt about that. I've never been the biggest fan of modern Tudor watches but hearing what you say about the bracelet in addition to the lovely design have me thinking twice.

Regarding the bracelet, is this in comparison to the current solid centre link versions on the Rolex models or the previous hollow ones?

I wanted for a long time but they are a little bulky for me.

I like the watch, especially on the strap, but it’s too thick for my taste.

I had this watch and truly loved it. Sadly it didn’t get much wrist time due to the smurf being my go-to blue dial piece. Nonetheless, fantastic piece.

Totally agree, I’ve wanted a Rolex for a while and now that budget allows, can’t get one, but I’ll be patient though I do love some of the omegas as well as tudors it would just be a place holder till a Rolex came my way. Now once the mission for the Rolex is accomplished all bets are off!!! ;)
