Frankt8242 1 Posted January 19, 2014 (edited) geesh..!!.....I guess I stepped on somebody's pet snake!! i never said you shouldn't respect Tudors, I just said I do not hold them in high enough esteem to consider buying one.... In reality, they are similar to the Rolex replicas we treasure, in that they are in fact, Rolex style cases, sans the Rolex movement... And IIRC, the Tudors were made with ETA movements... (Just like ours used to be).... :giggle: Edited January 19, 2014 by Frankt8242 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnG 41 Posted January 19, 2014 So a Tudor is beneath you but a fake Rolex made by kids working fourteen hour shifts is not.... gotcha. Myself? I would be proud to wear a fake Tudor made in a sweatshop.... made for people too poor to even buy the WANNABE Rolex. I am not a snob, like some people on this forum. I can't afford the Rolex, I can't even afford the wannabe Rolex, so for me it is a copy of a copy. Fuck yeah. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

George. 34 Posted January 19, 2014 Wasn't convinced on this particular one till I held the prototype in my hands yesterday. Fucking damn, I need one Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
maxwas 0 Posted January 19, 2014 I couldn't handle it any longer, I emailed puretime a couple of days back about the BB, not heard back yet. The Pelagos however looks an absolute belter. D. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Olly 0 Posted January 19, 2014 I hope to god they make one !! i will be No.1 on the list for preorder Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted January 19, 2014 I must be "queer" or perhaps, something else, but that watch does absolutely NOTHING for me!!...Just another lame Rolex attempt to reinvent the "Sub" genre IMNSFHO!! Maybe it's because, back "in the day" Tudor was what you bought if you couldn't afford a "Real" Rolex...??? :treadmill: +1 Not really..it's just these subs..all the same.. It's a rep of a wannabe Rolex, that's all, don't know what the fuss is all about. All I can say on the matter is this... Wasn't convinced on this particular one till I held the prototype in my hands yesterday. Fucking damn, I need one Amazing quality on the rep, I've not held the gen but I literally would never have guessed it was a rep. Awesome fit and finish, TIGHT endlinks, a bracelet that is superbly well finished, a dial that looks perfect... I wanted to hate it but I think I will have to add it to the list... WANT.

hnic 1 Posted January 20, 2014 i really like it but didnt know it was a 41mm watch that might save me money after all Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnG 41 Posted January 20, 2014 Anyone know how long before the other dealers will have this - what is the typical lag time between Angus and the rest of them? I just went to order and it is $318 plus FORTY FIVE for shipping. Fuck that, I will wait. Anyway, historically, how long is the wait? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnG 41 Posted January 20, 2014 Well if that is true, I will wait - there are other dealers that ship certified first class mail with tracking for a fraction of that.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Realism 72 Posted January 20, 2014 ^ what kind of shipping costs $45? Surely you don't need triangular shipping to get it to Spain Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
austinsom 47 Posted January 20, 2014 Was never really one for a Tudor, but every time I see this thread I get more and more tempted, stop talking about it and I might 'forget' about it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
JohnG 41 Posted January 20, 2014 I don't know - but Puretime quotes $45 on the shopping cart page and $15 for parts/orders under $100. That's pretty pricey. I wonder when Intime will have the BB? Ten days? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dfq23 131 Posted January 20, 2014 Pure time and the cartel are all $45 for shipping and now won't even give any other options to most countries Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Frazzle 5 Posted January 20, 2014 $35 to UK. $353 all in. It's the most I've spent on a rep watch! I'm pretty frugal, but there was something about this watch that made me forget my conservative spending (tightness) and hit the order button. I have been loosely following the thread on the Geek, but having watched the Puretime video and seen the work that went into the watch I felt it was one of those super rep must haves in the collection! Also I've noticed Higs seems to always have all the reps that have superior build quality and style. He ordered one so it's a no brainer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
