Stopped by my AD today, he “hasn’t seen one yet”...

Regardless, I’m not a nickname guy - but can we call the P01 the “ninja” at this point??

I am looking forward to seeing what we can come up with for strap/bracelet modifications. I have to believe that some alternatives already exist they just need to be tried. I have some older Tudor bracelets and may see if any of them will work. I have to think RubberB or some of the other manufactures will jump in. If anyone figures it out please let us know.

All we really need is a connecting link or adapter.

I bought the first one that came in and they don't know when they will get another one. I expressed interest since Baselworld. She said there was a wait list for it (but somehow I don't fully believe her, maybe 2 people expressing interest she calls a waitlist :)

This watch is so different that I can't see a hype around it. It is a very nice, unique looking tool watch, and I love the besel lock mechanism, but the only thing I really don't like is how there is one bracelet link between the case and the rubber strap... Why not connect the rubber strap straight to the case? It would sit much nicer on the wrist and appear smaller.

Has anyone in the UK taken delivery?

And what are the strap options beyond the one it comes with? Would love to have it on a black composite strap instead.

I dropped my off at the AD yesterday. They were having a big yearly event and the Tudor rep donated a bracelet to see if it can be fit. They’re supposed to let me know something in the next couple days

The Tudor Ninja - I like that. BTW, in 1946 Hans Wilsdorf, founder of Rolex, started Tudor as a more affordable brand to its big brother Rolex. It's like he designed Tudor with Ninja in mind.

Zero discount on mine, in the beginning at least they will not offer discounts but if it proves that it is not selling over the next few months we may see discounts becoming available. Just my take on it
