Foxindebox 465 Posted November 19, 2014 OK Guys, My Blue and White (actually more beige/grey) Tudor Heritage Chronograph arrived today. I'll give some very brief first impressions as I go, but here are some pictures: - Firstly unpacking. It was well enough wrapped using both bubble wrap and a Jiffybag The dial looks a little greyer than I thought, but still looks nice. There are a lot of tells on this watch, so I am not overly bothered about absolute accuracy, more the look of the piece. What is nice is that it has both a screw down crown and pushers, which is a big improvement over the previous Quartz chrono. Also, the sweep is much better than previously. I think that it's a microstepper as the jerkiness of the previous movement isn't there. The bracelet feels really nice and not too dissimilar to my V2 Black Bay. One noticeable difference is that there are steel ball bearings instead of ceramic in the clasp. All in all it feels really well made. And here are some pics on a NATO strap both on the wrist and with its brother (or sister depending on how you choose to anthropomorphise your watches) Anyway, I love it and it'll be getting plenty of wrist time I'll take some decent pics with my SLR, but that's all for now.

rusty peters 0 Posted January 19, 2015 MM338, I believe this model is exclusive to Kuvarsit Watches. They are a TD here and the watch is about $150 ish if I recall correctly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mm338 0 Posted January 19, 2015 Thanks rusty. I'm looking over the site now. Does this model come with the blue nato or do you have to order that separately? I'll try emailing the TD sorry for my lack of common sense. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rusty peters 0 Posted January 19, 2015 No sweat. It does not come with the nato. Go to Natostrapcompany for the strap. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mm338 0 Posted January 19, 2015 The one on kuvarsit is a Quartz model. Any idea where fox got his with the sweep? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rusty peters 0 Posted January 19, 2015 It is mecha quartz and it is the only option besides the genuine article. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ishmael 92 Posted January 19, 2015 I have the same watch: Only Kuvarsit sells it to my knowledge. Toro tried to get it for me and couldn't. And Fox doesn't have a different "sweep" model - there is only a quartz version. The only "sweep" he could be referring to is the chrono hand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mm338 0 Posted January 19, 2015 That is one of the coolest looking watches I've ever seen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was indeed referring to the Chrono, as all other hands are parked Whilst it's no 7750 or ST19, it is more of a sweep than the one second "jumps" on a non-microstepper quartz Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

ringobingo 1 Posted July 23, 2015 Beautiful watch. How does micro stepper work? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
redducati 2 Posted January 11, 2016 one of the best looking chronos ever. Still crossing fingers that they come out with a super rep or at least a automatic movement version. I'd be overjoyed to be found wrong and someone direct me to a TD site that has an auto. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
