Thought I'd post a pic of something I picked up over the weekend, used but very good condition and a favorable price.   |

Thanks for the nice comment! I was about to pull the trigger on a more bling Day-Date in 2-Tone with the stepped bezel, but I figured it a little too "Can't afford the real Rolex". At least this one was a little less identical. |

The early Tudor Subs have really caught on as I think have the chronos, but the rest of the Tudor lines don't seem to be as popular. I know that sometime ago Tudor went about re-inventing themselves as a watch brand to seperate themselves from Rolex. Also, Very Nice pickup JKang  Last edited on Mon Feb 9th, 2009 06:35 pm by murphy j |

Shady: Don't know what sales are like in the US, but over here in Asia, they've always been seen as the "poor man's Rolex" with numerous sub-models like the Subs, Prince (Oyster Perp Jr) with stepped and plain bezels, and the old Rander (Exp I Jr). Murphy: Your observations are correct. A lot of Tudor dealers in Singapore are also adopting the vibrant Art Noveau look of the new website, a clear delineation from the more stoic, prestigious Rolex site. Same goes for the models. The new Prince models have a different bezel design to make them a little more "umph" and the Hydronauts now bear very little resemblance to the Subs. The Chronos are also farther departed from the Daytona look. Looks like a step in the right direction. |

The early Tudor subs have shot up into the galaxy price wise! I am busy trying to restore a '67 vintage with 390 movement, and have been watching offerings for spare parts on the Bay. $500 - $600 for a scrapped movement only! A complete watch in poor condition is closing today and last time I checked it was already at $2200! http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&item=310120600973&_trksid=p3907.m32&_trkparms=tab%3DWatching Dials are selling for $350! and so I can carry on...... Must say they do look nice with a Nato strap... Attachment: tudor33iu (320 x 240).jpg (Downloaded 7 times) Last edited on Wed Feb 11th, 2009 10:39 am by Graham |
