2018 Tudor Qatar

Woo hoo...after much searching.....mine arrived yesterday....albeit at a significant premium to msrp. What do you do?

My Tudor contact shared the following:

"Apparently were talking about 100-150 watches commissioned to the royal family and some business leaders in Qatar. They were never actually available to the public but the sale was brokered through a boutique, probably 51 East, though they deny. They won't come up on the primary market so the only chance is secondary market or auction now."

it took me a very long time to find one and then I ended up finding two!

Agree re the difficulty to source one and the fact that supply is supposed to be very limited.

I am considering sell one and may post it on the for sale section should I decide to let it go.

I got mine from the local AD back in Feb.19. I had to pay full retail in advance and they handed it iver to me during the Qatar Juwelery exhibition.
I am living since 10 years in the Country.... so that will be my rememberance timepiece for this part of my life.

Beautiful!!! I LOVE this watch!

Been thinking about picking one up as well. They're going for anywhere around £5-7k on Chrono24 and the odd ones at around £14k.

Edit: Just realised this thread is about 2 years old lol
