Just had an email from Frazer Hart today , it was advertising the Tudor range being available from the 19th Sept.
Seems to be the Rolex outlets that will have the Tudors (although I have only dealt with the York one for a couple of Rolex's .

Sounds like watching Father Christmas' progress via NORAD.

As a fan of the brand (my first mechanical watch and currently a 79260p chronograph) I'm sure you'll enjoy.

I've always thought of Tudor as the thinking mans watch.

Looking forward to seeing one in the flesh at my local AD from 19/9.

This is driving me insane; I can't decide whether I want a Pelagos or a Black Bay. Obviously I want both, but can only really justify one atm & I think I've set my heart on one of them for my next purchase.

Black Bay please biggrin

Red or Blue?

I think I'd go Red Black Bay over Pelagos but maybe Pelagos over blue Black Bay!?

In case anyone is thinking of picking one up in Singapore :

List here is S$5530 - less a max haggle able discount of 10% at some shops ... Equates to just over 2400 GBP at current FX rates .

Black bays on metal retail for S$4530 IIRC - just under 2000 GBP after haggling etc.

I compared a blue black bay and Pelagos today - Pelagos felt better on the wrist and also lighter / better balanced.

BB felt a bit top heavy to me .. But looked good / slightly better than Pelagos - though out of the 2 I'd go for the Pelagos for wearability and date function - pity it's not also sold with some jazzy bezel colours!

I have tried on both the Black Bay and Pelagos and ended up choosing the Pelagos. Three reasons - one the display/lume on the Pelagos was superior and secondly the balance on the wrist is much better with the Pelagos than the Black bay which is unbalanced in either strap form or bracelet. The third reason was the innovative clasp mechanism on the Pelagos which works very well and is very comfortable.
