Butchered Tudor

What do we think of the Bucherer Tudor LE Blue. I think it's one of the best looking watches around.

your thread title is quite ironic.

I'd say it's my favorite Tudor. Admittedly, I'm not a huge Tudor fan, but the Bucherer Bronze is a great looking watch. Greys charge too much for it, though.

I think it is a uniquely awesome piece. I agree with previous points that’s it’s not worth the grey prices we see here in the states. I mean no offense, but is there an ulterior question to your question?

I thought Anne Boleyn was beheaded not butchered by a French swordsman in the House of Tudor in 1536

It’s beautiful, but I think bronze watches may be a novelty that could pass in the next few years. I’d consider it at a strong discount, but not at the premium this watch currently commands.

You have a point. It will be interesting to look back in a few years and see if they've aged well (and I don't mean patina).

Speaking of trends, I would have thought faux patina lume would have already been deemed passe, but it seems some companies are doubling down on it. I'll be interested to see what Omega's divers look like this year.

I think Omega way over cooked that with their trilogy line. Personally, I don't like some else's old. If you know what I mean.

She was, and the brown dial colour was modelled on the River Thames that flowed right by the Tower.

I love it, its has aged very so far. When I originally saw I had to source one. It has moved to about 2-3 days a week in the rotation...

Sources say that now that Bucherer has bought Tourneau, the blue bronze BB will be available in the US soon.

Only Tudor I would wear, but agree not even close to what greys sell for.

Personally every Tudor you should be able to get 15-20% off

Pictures like this make me want to pay the premium. You got a pretty one, that’s for sure.

Boucherer won't allow any form of purchase other than in store. So if you are not a Londoner you can't buy one without visiting.
Is this good practice.

I like the colors a lot and wish it was a regular production model.

I enquired through their website and phone in October last year, I have spoken to them again this week and I should be getting it in the next few weeks.

Sorry for my poor spelling of Boucherer Butchered etc. I am quite good with English but not when I've had a drink.
