BadPickle 2,738 Posted May 3, 2016 Walking past the local AD ain't good for the wallet!! Saw a Tudor Ranger and just had to get the rep on my wrist... After a little shouty box chat with my new mate spike, I was steered towards PureTime and their specials page was just too good to be true, so pulled the trigger straight away. I know they're not a dealer here, and I've never actually used them before, but that didn't seem to make any difference whatsoever, comms were pleasant and to the point. Oh, and I only paid 15usd shipping Ordered Wednesday 27th April QC's in my inbox Thursday 28th April, approved same day Shipped and tracking number Friday 29th April Arrived at PickleTowers Tuesday 3rd May And yes!! There was a bloody public holiday in there too :lmao: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Genius 281 Posted May 3, 2016 Love the watch but can't get over how the bracelet fits, not a criticism of the rep it's tudor that are the idiots. Anyone know if a black bay bracelet fits? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadPickle 2,738 Posted May 3, 2016 Cheers peeps, it's a real looker for sure, right up til I put it on the wrist I wasn't sure if it was gonna be big enough really, but I'm loving it!! @genius, you have a point about the end links, they look much better in the flesh, but this is where it's heading if I can get one--->> Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Del 4,437 Posted May 3, 2016 Love that! I was looking at the same watch in an AD's window about one hour ago, no joke! I've admired it for some time, especially on the tan leather bund strap. Love it on the camo NATO too though. Enjoy it mate! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ShovelnTC 31 Posted May 5, 2016 Mate these are great watches and particulary good with the prices available now, paid a little more for mine but still very happy. They look great on the Gen camo but I believe are around $200 which is waaaaaay over my budget for straps but I'm wearing mine on a Brady (taken today) and also had it on distressed leather that I actually bought for my BB but looks great with the Ranger IMO. Enjoy yours. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ishmael 92 Posted May 5, 2016 Cheers all, gonna buzz the AD today, find out what a gen nato comes in at $$$ Cost me $180 for the strap, $120 for the buckle, and the AD tossed in the extra keeper (which is it's own part number FYI, sold separately for $60 ) Sold now :( Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jagsman 20 Posted May 5, 2016 Lovely, wear in good health, it looks great on that BB distressed strap too! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Snuffbox 0 Posted May 5, 2016 I have one on the bund and it's my favourite go to watch. Everything about it is just so right. Had to get mine serviced by our trusted watch fiddler Nick and it is now just lovely to wind and it's time keeping is spot on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
