Also has the BB always had a domed crystal or is this also a new addition?

I'm with you on this one, though I have to say Rolex has done it with the black and green Submariner, the GMT Master with its different colored bezels, and Deepsea, Exp 2, YM and Daytona with their different colored dials.

Personally, I believe the best looking BB is still the original red one.

Given Tudor's apparent strategy to update movements to their in-house one, a new Ranger next year, perhaps? That said, I have a suspicion it's probably not a good seller so maybe they won't bother.

I love the new BB36! It'd be perfect without that snowflake hand... and I don't care how similar it is to the Explorer. That's my bag, baby!! I've just got to hope it's price is over the top otherwise I'm suddenly going to have a new watch at the top of my list to buy

I'd imagine an updated ranger is quite likely at some point, it does appear popular too more so than the style range for sure. Don't forget there's the style and other dressy watches to update too and all the chronos.

Saying that the new 36mm bb uses an ETA!

I am really loving this new BB, it really does look slick without a bezel.

I agree! The proportions are spot on... Apart from the crown, that I feel looks a little out of place

Really like the bronze BB and the 36 BB. The riveted bracelet is a really nice heritage update. As for the PVD, the dial is awesome but that's about it!! Now it's rolex's turn!!

Also the new Tudor Style with fluted bezel has been presented in almost endless dial, bezel, material, strap/bracelet combinations.



I think my girlfriend might be getting the 34mm or 28mm :) Also, the bezel to dial ratio looks a lot better on the smaller models.

The "Chronometer Officiall Certified" on the dial should tip you off!

Looks like most of the line has been updated to the COSC in house movement. Except maybe that BB36.

the movement in the 41mm models is way too small for the watch, leading to the date window being too far to the center.
