These are trickling in. I registered interest when rumors of a new release started coming in and my AD called me when the first model came in.

It wears well on my 7" wrist and is quite comfortable. The matte dial has a cool shimmer effect in direct sunlight and I like the color of the lume.

The bracelet feels quality and I appreciate the T-fit but haven't quite figured out how to make it work easily. That said, I also ordered the stock fabric and I think it will work really well on that strap or a distressed, brown leather strap.

One thing I noticed that I commented on in another thread is the second hand sweep: it doesn't seem as smooth as the vph would suggest. But as it's a tool watch, I think it works well with the overall vibe.

Now that I have two Tudors, they both just “feel” like tool watches and that they “want” to be used and abused.

Overall, it looks and feels quite nice and I look forward to seeing it on the strap!

How much does the fabric strap run?

I think a little less than $300. So…pretty pricey but I’m sure it’s much less than having to buy a bracelet.

Congratulations well done

noshame · 16 July 2022, 07:06 AM

Congrats, OP.

JWillard · 16 July 2022, 07:16 AM

Nice! I got one as well...look forward to seeing yours on the brown leather! I'm finding it less weighty than the BB58, and more comfortable.

JohnGingerwood · 16 July 2022, 12:57 PM

The new ones look great. Congrats!

sickened1 · 17 July 2022, 01:35 AM

Congrats! I'm still rocking the ETA version.

Ksbi · 17 July 2022, 02:44 AM

EndlessEight · 17 July 2022, 04:16 AM

Very cool! I liked the idea of the prior Ranger but never put one on. I think this new one begs for a strap.

Litflynt912 · 17 July 2022, 07:11 AM

Just got back from my AD and tried it on. Was thisclose to pulling the trigger
It wear really well on the black rubber/nylon with the deployment clasp.

The only thing that I hesitated in was whether I would wear it enough to justify the 3k

Ideally this is a treat daily and value play

Then you have many different options.

HogwldFLTR · 17 July 2022, 09:26 AM

Congratulations; this watch is definitely growing on me.

I like the new Ranger. I wish it was 36mm as I have small wrists and my 75090 hits the sweet spot.

Man that’s a beautiful piece!
