Im heading north of the border in 2 weeks to see my folks and will probably head into town to peruse the watch windows. Any dealers in Glasgow known to hold Tudor stock?

I had a good trawl through the Argyle Arcade (if you haven't been its where a lot of the city centre jewellers are located), and I didn't notice any displaying any Tudor stock.

I'm from Dumbarton as well!! Well Alexandria but you know what I mean.
They may have some in the new watches of Switzerland at the top of Buchanan street. But I never noticed when I was in last week buying the wife's Omega. (which I actually got in omega on Buchanan street)

Where in Alexandria? I grew up on Strathaven (so not quite Dumbarton, but almost).

Tudor are not in the UK yet so only grey imports available or a order by a Rolex AD.

Yeah, was just wondering if any of the dealers had any grey stock in their itinerary.

Ha! What age are you? I probably knew you. I lived in Helen way and ran the weekend paper round in the mid 90's.

As are mine, although they've moved away twice for work reasons. We moved in 1990 after the house was finished, moved to Plymouth in 94 and then back to the same house in 96. They moved to America for nearly 4 years with my dads work in 2009 and returned in 2012 where they set about redesigning and improving (my brother gave it a hard time whilst they were away).

You're 9 years my senior so i doubt you'd have been on my list of mates at the time. But, goes to prove PH is a great community and another part of making our world smaller.

Were you a Vale Academy, St Pats or Dumbarton Academy pupil? Or were you posh and attending Keil?

Glasgow is a great place for watches. Watches of Switzerland at the top of Buchanan street ,Omega boutique and Laings with Patek,IWC,JLC,Rolex,zenith etc mappin & webb has become more a jewellery store in the past year (than a watch shop) though they still sell cartier etc
