Beautiful watch! That reference is high on my list but can't stomach the price. I look at them daily. Maybe one day the market on them will calm down or I'll get just get plain lucky.

Enjoy it!

I love the Tudor Big Block. It trumps the Daytona for me. True 40mm diameter plus a date window equals win/win.

Very nice, the Big Block is a great watch. Its a little unsightly on a strap unless you have end links.

I tried some end links I had for an old 1680 and didn't think they looked awful.

Also tried an Everest strap (from a 16600) and it sort of worked too.

I do prefer on the bracelet though.

Ditto! You guys are killing me with your stick dial Tudors. I want one SOOO bad. Cant find one at a price I'm happy to pay, so I "settled" for a 1st gen Omega PO chrono.

Love the Big Blocks. All three of mine are unpolished full sets that I have owned for a few years and am very glad I bought them when I did. Still a lot of watch for the money and a joy to own and wear.
