Congrats Faz it looks great on you. It's one of my favorite Tudor references and I was fortunate to find a nice one here locally last year.

I like the looks of the leather strap too, but from a few sources I heard/read that the Tudor strap is uncomfortably thick and not preferred to aftermarket ones. I will look at some aftermarket leathers for sure. The color of this watch works well with leather options from what I have seen.

Another bay arean. Great looking BB with leather too. I checked a couple of local ADs but all they had were the 79230’s, no ETA that I could find.

Thanks. I picked this up FTF in a private party sale generated from another forum. It was originally sold with the Tudor strap but the buyer hated that strap so he sold it and put it on the Bulang & Son. Congrats again on yours.

Rose logo is as part of the appeal for me, but I actually like the shield too.

Thanks for the info on strap. Read about Bulang and checked them out, a bit pricey but looking good.

Found out a mate can get staff discount on Tudor, don't think he will be able to on the BB GMT I have ordered but one of these might be coming home in next few days!

Love this watch congratulations!

I've really been holding myself back from trying to source one and incomings like this make it so hard.
