Cubic Hare 494 Posted March 21, 2017 I hope it's not repped with the A7750 timebomb chrono. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr_B 2,401 Posted March 21, 2017 I hope it's not repped with the A7750 timebomb chrono. Hopefully a nice handwind should do the trick, don't know if it's possible with the date Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
jdog 1 Posted March 21, 2017 (edited) I love me some red-headed stepchild that is Tudor, but that sh!t is horrendous Edited March 21, 2017 by jdog Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Genius 281 Posted March 21, 2017 I love a tudor chrono.... But just not that one The design of the watch is nice but the hour hand is not right for that model too much else going on for the big "snowflake" also not totally sold on the round hour markers Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
WatchaholicMallorca 2 Posted March 21, 2017 Haven't seen many rumors outside of the Rolex releases, looking forward to see what everyone else is up to! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
G_sus 549 Posted March 21, 2017 I'd even take it in a Quartz :) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GenTLe 1,509 Posted March 22, 2017 I hope it's not repped with the A7750 timebomb chrono. Not a lot of choices: if it'll be a 7750 it will have sunken date. If it's a Venus handwind, then it will have wrong pinions and no date. The only proper choice would be a 7753, but does this Tudor have the quick date set pusher @10?

GC 4,507 Posted March 22, 2017 I can't make up my mind about that watch. Things that make you go hmmmm...??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Article says "as a foolproof date that can be adjusted at any time." so I asssume this must mean a quick set pusher, though maybe not at 10 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

James. 4 Posted March 22, 2017 Hideously, vomit inducing, ugly watch that tudor, as is the SS bezel black bay. Just a bunch of yuck this year from tudor. The well has run dry for them, flogging the black bay horse. Speedy 60th anniversary... popcorn time, and rail master. Rollie.... who the shitballs knows. Sea dweller 50th anniversary, please have a red liner. Wtf could the chrono be??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Kleen™ 45 Posted March 22, 2017 Busy bezel + illegible subdials = no go. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
dilip 0 Posted March 22, 2017 I mentioned this on rwi as well, but isn't it weird that the snowflake takes up so much of space on the dial, almost covering an entire subdial? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
James. 4 Posted March 22, 2017 Srsd... lol I'm already on the list for the new speedy, off to the local rlx boutique tomorrow as well i suspect. Fkin love it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Del 4,463 Posted March 22, 2017 I mentioned this on rwi as well, but isn't it weird that the snowflake takes up so much of space on the dial, almost covering an entire subdial? I think that's a bit of an exaggeration! You could say the same for hands that cover a date window on a watch. At least the snowflake hand is easy to see. ;) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
