"AVAILABILITY: Unavailable"
Call them up, they don't have this watch in stock.
Maybe its just showing stores who have it on there stock system. Probability sat waiting for someone on the list."AVAILABILITY: Unavailable"

I spoke to the manager at local goldsmiths a few weeks ago and he said Tudor are odd for stock. they wait ages for some then tons come in at once.
Also does the GMT on stainless come with a nato strap as well or have Tudor stoped that ?

Can anybody confirm how links are taken out? usually I would get the AD to do it on collection but the AD I have paid a deposit with and had guaranteed July delivery is in Glasgow and I'm in MIlton Keynes.
are they screws or pins?
Screws, I did mine myself. Really, really carefully!are they screws or pins?

Similar to this, has anyone tried to remove the bracelet? I read on hodinkee that the bracelet can only be removed with a specialist Tudor/Rolex tool but others say it's no problem with a £3 spring bar removal tool. I change my bracelet about twice a week on my other watches so this is an important detail. are they screws or pins?

£100, yea no.. Are they normal spring bars? if so I'll mask the case up and take my chances
Yep, standard spring bars. It is fiddly with a regular tool but as you say if you tape up the lugs it's not a big issue. I do like the Tudor GMT but prefer the older Black Bay Bracelet to the newer riveted one.. wonder if mine would fit it as I mostly wear the Black Bay on a NATO anyway.. cool Greg. Yea I do like a metal bracelet but it may wear slightly too formal for its intended use with me and if I do wear it to work it will scuff up in no time and I'd rather keep the original bracelet as scuff free as possible. My option will be a Phoenix admiralty grey NATO which is in keeping with the heritage theme of the watch (sorry I'm OT here talking about the black - apologies) as Phoenix were the first manufacturer of NATOs for the MOD and admiralty grey the original colour; as far as I can tell from a little research.

That's funny, I've been meaning to buy one of those Phoenix admiralty grey NATO's for a while. The Tudor one, whilst not a true NATO, is actually really comfy and nice quality and I can also recommend the Zuludiver ones (I've got a couple of Bond style ones, a light grey one and the green Marine Nationale type with the red stripe).Just been into a dealer near to my clients office. They have every model except the pepsi. The sales guy was wearing one with the nato strap which he left me try on. I quite like it. They have a 2 year waiting list for the steel bracelet version. The leather and nato have no waiting list at all and so I will pop back in a few days when they have one in. I can then order the strap separately.

Wonder if some of these AD's are going to order ones without bracelet's and purchase the bracelets separately then sell them as bracelet versions. I collected mine from my AD on Thursday. It really is a lovely watch, especially so at it's relatively low price. The muted bezel colours, domed glass and lack of cyclops make a nice difference to the Rolex. Here's a few photos of it and my BLNR GMT in different lights for comparison.
annoying as some UK AD's have them sat in the window with no buyers. Gassing Station | Watches | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
