dbane883 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 What's with all the Tudor BBs for sale recently? Seems like a disproportionate amount. Has that model lost its cache value? I know I owned one for about 5 mins and sold it right away. Just didn't feel right on my wrist. I think there are at least 4 for sale on RWI right now. Mostly blue
StormTooper4 Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 As much as I want one I have had to stop myself . I look at my Watch box and say Do I really need another " Diver " the answer is of course yes, but just not any spare slots right now . I think once you get it you might think is this "THE" diver , i guess a few are saying no
Hyjynx Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 The blue BB just never had the same appeal as the red for me. It just seemed like an afterthought and very ordinary. That said, the rash of sales is not uncommon. There is a lot of impulse purchase with new reps. We are all prone to the phenomenon. A while back, it was JLC Navy Seal Divers sales that were popping up like mushrooms. They sold fast too. The good thing is you can unload most reps with loss no more than your shipping costs.
HaydenM Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 To me the blue doesn't have the same warm vintage feel as the red. I have a red but it's currently in a bunch of pieces with a broken movement and a crown with a stem stuck in it, otherwise I'd still be wearing it.
highoeyazmuhudee Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 still own my blue, its a nice homage with several notes to the original big crown. while the dial and insert are the weak points movement runs +5 a day I vowed to wear this one into the ground
jackflash Posted October 31, 2014 Report Posted October 31, 2014 Interesting. With the advent of Pelagos rep maybe some are offloading.

danielv2000 Posted November 1, 2014 Report Posted November 1, 2014 Blue doesn't cut it for me. I borrowed a friend's Red gen for a weekend and fell in love with it.
Bc1221 Posted November 1, 2014 Report Posted November 1, 2014 I think the Pelagos + new TClv has everyone making room IMO. Lots of bbs have goin around lately. Lots of omegas too. PAMs. APs. Patek all seem to have the same sell pattern. I'm just waiting for the right TCLV V1.2,3 or a YM. To come at the right price.
