Hey Rolex and Tudor lovers out there, let's see them!

I like all models and makes of about any watch brand out there. Heck, I think I like 'em all. And about vintage pieces...that could be another thread!. But I'm partial to Rolex and Tudor watches, they are really sweet watches for me. Some tastes >

....
And I'm pondering about getting myself a Tudor Black Bay, a really cool looking and great watch. In Europe you can find them in every Rolex AD. They are soon to be available in the USA. Really like the snowflake hands,

[font=arial]They come with a bracelet, a great vintage looking leather strap and a fantastic looking, specially made NATO fabric strap,[/font][font=arial][img][/font]

[font=arial]Also would love to have in my collection a great and super cool Pelagos. This one have a heart in the form of a ETA 2824.[/font]
[font=arial]Really, you [i]can't[/i] have it all....,[/font]

and a Deep Sea Sea Dweller, which I'm wearing right now. This is a huge and heavy watch, with a BIG presence, I absolutely love it. Not for everyones taste I guess,

Here is a Tudor snowflake, another pass down from my father. Unfortunately in the past this watch as went through water damage and left in drawer. When discovered years ago, rotor was rusted and so is many parts. Luckily the dial is still OK. The watch guy secure a donor vintage ETA movement, new hands and had it moving again.

That snowflake it's a real beauty! That magnificent piece sure worth restoration. You can find not-so-expensive used Tudor's ETA movement at eBay, lots. Thanks for posting :clap: [quote=alhamady89]

What a wonderful specimen of a 5513, appears to be minted. This is a watch that holds its value very steadily, the 5513 are selling today from around $6500 ++.
Beautiful watch!

:great: for some pretty impressive photographs! :clap:

marsimaxam · Jul 11, 2013

All wonderful watches....

The theme seems to be mostly subs, so here are three I've owned for a very long time. I prefer the vintage models which I guess is a good thing.

1961.. 5512 with gilt dial, 1969.. 1680 Red Sub, 1974.. 1665 Double Red Sea Dweller

cyma · Jul 20, 2013

Some very nice Tudors, but not one mini-sub,so here is a pic of mine.

That is probably the top three most sought after (withinn reasonable measures) Vintage Rollies you could get. :bravo_2:

Definately agree with that. My 14060m is my go to watch and daily wearer. One day it'll be handed on to my son (if I can bear to part with it) ;)

Take another great diver from switzerland, SQUALE. Their top of the range 1000m Professional is run with a 2824-2. How much? $1299. The BB is a beautiful watch with a proven movement but so is the SQUALE. With one your paying for the watch, with the other your paying for the advertising too.

Good point. If I remember correctly Tudor takes the basic ETA calibres and completely refinishes them, including adding there own balance cock. Similar to what IWC used to do with the ETA movements in their pilot watches. This would account for a bit of the price difference I would imagine.

They can add what they like but at its heart it's still a stock $200 movement. For three and a half thousand bucks it ought to have a Rolex movement in there;-)

Wow, that 5512 is spectacular. I love the way the seconds track is set away from the edge of the dial on these early subs.

gatormka · Aug 15, 2013

Tudor Black Bays rule. With the response they're getting, do you think Rolex goes no crown guard on the next sub?
