And right now both of these watches are appreciating day by day. If Chrono24 is to be believed, anyhow. Well done.

it is a fine piece. you may see 100 lvc but you'll rarely run into that tudor ever in real life. that in and of itself makes it very cool.

This pic illustrates why I would never aspire to own a ceramic Rolex. If both these models said Tudor on the dial would anyone buy the one on the right, really? Kind of looks like a plastic bezel next to the B.B. to me (sorry).

It’d never grow old gracefully with you either would it! It’s like Rolex killed off the future of vintage rolex when ceramic came about. One of the best things about Rolex bezels is how they change over the years.

if you are serious they do come up often. that said youll pay a premium but unless you are already taking a trip across the pond there is a reason to pay it.

Absolutely gorgeous. I love the Harrods and how they added the perfect amount (and shade) of green. Enjoy it!

How many Rolex watches do you own? Or are you someone who can’t get their hands on the watch they want...

At the price point it is a real good buy.

How long did it take from initial call to pick up?

There are so many things to like about the Harrods
Prefer the green to the Hulk, narrower lugs for vintage look, price, likely future value, rarity.
These reasons are why I bought one.
That said the hour hand, to me anyway, is fugly and why I will let it go at some stage

Congratulations. Both are great watches but I do not think it is a fair comparison. I like both brands but there are enough differences on most levels that they are not similar.
