I'm super curious about the numbers available in North America. My AD has 142 and I have to call a few to see which number I like the most (when you number things it becomes so personal)..but each AD only has 1 and hard to get...
Please share if you already got one and what your number is! I figure it can't be more than 999 cus the engraving at the back is only large enough for 3 numbers...unless they reduce the font. That's just a guess anyway. If so it would be highly collectable down the road.
I'm thinking maybe all the lucky number 8s went to Asia...

Ian Macdermott · 19 November 2016, 07:47 AM

Not much use as I got mine in the UK. Also unless they shrink the font down I cannot see how there can be any more than 999.

speedmaster73 · 19 November 2016, 08:31 AM

the 'numbered' series is not a limited edition...there will be multiple 143 151 166 etc....

the numbers are a 'homage' to the past. it does not represent an LE piece any many buyers will have the same #'s

its a gimmick

thats up to you. i was just pointng out its not a LE watch and the 'numbers' are a homage to the past.....

multiple people will own watch # 189 etc

to be fair Tudor never stated it was a LE model

tifosi · 19 November 2016, 08:45 AM

Yes, this is not a limited watch. Sorry OP.

Evad3 · 19 November 2016, 08:47 AM

Oh wow, I never really looked too deep into the model but due to the numbers assumed it was an LE

No problem I was as we say in the UK "pulling your plonker"

I have no intention of returning it.

Orangejoe · 19 November 2016, 08:48 AM

How's does "not limited" translate to "there will be multiple pieces with the same number"?

tifosi · 19 November 2016, 08:50 AM

Does not say "individually numbered". It's just meant to replicate real military Subs from the past.

Old Expat Beast · 19 November 2016, 09:47 AM

Is the number on the card or receipt?

Negative.

GB-man · 19 November 2016, 10:00 AM

My AD claims they aren't limited but the numbers aren't being used twice. Take that fwiw this was a sales rep and not the manager I usually deal with.

Palermo · 19 November 2016, 10:48 AM

Definitely being sold in the UK as 'unique production number'!

pacific17 · 19 November 2016, 10:52 AM

hmm.. they really reviving the past.

How sure are you of this info?

osamu · 19 November 2016, 11:47 AM

I'm hoping it's not limited, as probably a few years before I'd even consider buying one. But would be disappointed if the number is just for show and not unique. You'd think if Rolex can have unique serial numbers, they can do unique casebacks, but if it is unique, would assume would definitely need more than 3 digits.

You can go to Tudor Brand Managers Instagram and he made comments. Search Russell Kelly
