How Do We Feel About Ceramics?

[jshell]

Here to stay, or flash in the pan, or something else? I know Rado have made an industry out of them, but with these three offerings, what do you guys think?

I'm having wet dreams over the JLC:



Love the DSOTM, but not at that price:



Or how about the IWC:



Audemars....I do love this too:



One for the Paneristi:



Even a Hublot:

Isn't there a picture of an impressively shattered high end watch?

Found it:

Crikey, you were quick! But, how many times have you dropped a watch on a tiles/concrete floor - I know I haven't...

I do like that Tudor, the Omega as well. That being said its not that I dislike them as such but on the whole they are way down the want list for me. Throwing a bit of fuel on the fire ceramic always strikes me as something for a woman's watch.

In ten yers time they'll look awful IMHO. I like metal for watches

My Rado ceramica. Must be over 10 years old now and not a scratch on it

It's on sale but not in the UK, though Tudor are rumoured to be re-entering the UK market later this year. Some UK Rolex dealers have been willing to do a special order on Tudor models.

It`s a Tudor Fastrider Blackshield, there is also one with red batons too but I REALLY fancy the one with the gold batons and beige alcantara strap (I know it sounds revolting)

A few of the red on Chrono 24 but I`ve never seen the black/gold/beige for sale, though as mentioned before a UK Rolex dealer could get you one!

Apparently the Euro list price is 3,930 EUROS but can be had for 2,950 EUROS

Just had a look at the black/gold one on Tudor site, that is lovely. Gonna drop into the Tudor dealer local to me on Sat to see if he's getting any in! Comes on beige and rubber straps too..

If you were serious, I'm sure you could ask either if they also have the other coloured variant.

Glad you agree that it`s lovely, when you describe it without someone actually seeing it too it sounds awful though!

I want one but it`s been a naughty 12 months for watches so I need to sit on my hands for a while!
