I don't think the BB looks bad at all in bi metal,

I really, really like that!

Nice isn't it, mind you, if you forgo the bi metal bracelet you don't get a lot of gold for your money! Still at £2580 it's not an awful lot for a bi metal watch is it?

I can't get past the hands. Just don't like them at all. The Tudor name reminds me of Henry VIII. He was a tt. Sorry, just too many negatives. Other than that they're quite nice watches.

The hands don't match each other.
The crown doesn't match the pushers.
The blobs for numbers scream (I couldn't afford a) Rolex.

The love. Not getting it. :shrugs:

Awful! I really do not get the Tudor thing at all.

The watches look ok, but what happens if it's not ten past ten?

Well at least it's right twice a day.

Of if you were on a long distance flight, maybe more than that?

Haven't seen a 45min chrono for while.

The snowflake hand will obscure the left chrono counter if you try to time anything between 8 and 10 o clock (either am or pm).

Very cheap indeed, given everything else has gone mental. I've got the BB Red on leather and love the gold accents it has. I love left-field choices.

I love my Tudor North Flag with steel bracelet. Simple and relatively understated.

A lot of the appeal for me is that it isn't a Rolex and it is a good quality piece with an in house movement at a reasonable price.

This watch also looks interesting..... Maybe another one to consider.

I feel the same about mine. It's a little different and I've yet to see another in the wild. I like the subs and toyed with a sea dweller but I decided on the path less travelled. I've also got a zenith rainbow fly back with a coloured dial for the same reason.

I sometimes see people glance and glance again at one or other of my watches as they try to work out what it is. That amuses me. There's not many ways for a chap to show his individuality, especially in the office environment, so this little display of difference appeals. Each to his own though.
