ryaku Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 There are gorgeous Tudor watches but almost no replica. Rolex are inflated and we all know they're, worn by most of us, not credible watches for their prices and fame. Tudor brand doesn't have these drawbacks.

robertk Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I've got a couple of Tudor sub Gens and they are great watches. Still can be bought for a low price. but not for long. Once price goes up Reps will become available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once price goes up Reps will become available. I love chronographs and i long to to see some good reps asap. Most Tudor chrono aren't so cheap at all unluckily.

HighDef Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I saw a Hydronaut from Narikaa once. Not a fan of that model though. I like to see the rep of the tiger Prince Date of the Tudor Sub. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
purspeed Posted June 24, 2006 Report Share Posted June 24, 2006 I don't really like the Tudors. Seems like a poor compromise. If you're going to spend the money, make the stretch and get a Rolex. My opinion only, try not to get offended. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

alligoat Posted June 25, 2006 Report Share Posted June 25, 2006 Instead of typing in ROLEX into the ebay search box, I guess it's time to start typing in TUDOR! There are still some deals to be had w/ Tudors, but the chrono is going run $1,200 and up depending on condition, etc. Retail for a good chrono is $2,500. Here's an interesting Tudor/5513 that I've been watching: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewI...A%3AIT&rd=1 More reps, ultimately I guess it's not percieved as that big a seller.

The dial is off, and not a very good redial in my opinion (lots of flaws); bezel insert is making me scratch my head, the case back is wrong, and of course, the movement is incorrect for a 5513 anyways. I think you'd be better of converting an MBW 1680 into a Tudor, or a 5513; It would cost less to do such a project, and you'd have essentially the same thing once it's done (An ETA based Sub). Just my $0.02... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
infinitime Posted June 26, 2006 Report Share Posted June 26, 2006 Hardly being ignored... here's my Tudor Day-Date.... the dial is nearly spot-on indistinguishable from the gen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
