... Or at least a corner of the rolex forum this month! Not really a representative sample of the broader market. I guarantee you that something like 90% of he general watch buying public have either never heard of Tudor watches or think it's a brand that disappeared years ago. That's not necessarily a bad thing though!

Probably simply because Tudor has it available for sale the same day as it is announced - instead of Rolex that announce a new model, but buyers must wait weeks / months.

I'm definitely lovin' mine! Its fun factor is way disproportionate to its modest price tag. One favorite element: check out those beveled case edge chamfers!



Cheers

Depends what country. Tudor is a very well known brand in Hong Kong, which is one of the very largest luxury watch markets in the world.

True, the interest does seem to subside somewhat after the announcement if the watches aren't there for the buying.

People know their watches in Hong Kong.

In Australia Tudor has had a very small presence in recent decades and of course was out of the USA market completely until quite recently. Really I'm just suggesting that the knowledge and enthusiasm of members of this forum would not necessarily be reflective of the big wide world out there!
