trksh-bzr 3 Posted December 13, 2012 Here she is.... I had my doubts about this one. I was on the hunt for a Tudor Big block, and found this watch locally, thinking that oysterdate dial automatically was a BB. FAIL. That was just wrong. Apparently there is a model inbetween the big block and the later prince models, called 79260 (prince ref) oysterdate, which is a prince case, with oysterdate dial and rolex CB and crown. In the end I didn't really care what it was, I just love the watch!! On the way home from the store: Let's see what came with this old lady: Inner box, outer box, card holder, booklet, warranty and a spare SS bezel. the braclet is soooo nice I asked if it had been replaced along with the NIB plastic wrapped clasp, but only the clasp had been swapped, bracelet is just really nice. -The nato is a gunny I have had for a few years. (gunnys prototype actually ) And off she goes to live with all her friends in dada's wardobe: I got my present early this year, but I'll still be eyeballing it come x-mas eve.

trksh-bzr 3 Posted December 13, 2012 Im glad you finally got her! Great piece for a great man ...great man you say, but remember, Kinky is still the greatest man alive on the planet.... I love it, it's the closest gen you can get from a paul newman within realistic finances. I actually think so. that's what I love about it, oddly, the tudor that shows up in a "tudor paul newman " google search is something like a monte carlo, which looks nothing like a PN..? guess the similar age must be the connection Beauty!! Mine says Hi nice -is yours a he or a she..... Nice watch. Why is your dresser levitating? obviously.....I'm a fly guy ... That is one beauty of a watch. Sooooo, you are still in the closet with Elvis? I knew! when I did the wardrobe, Linda asked me why I wanted a photo of the king in the wardrobe, to which I responded that I couldn't see any elvis photo in there, but if she was referring to my mirror, it is because it has followed me since I found it in an deserted house in israel in 1993... I am still in the closet though...just ask the greatest man in the universe...that cheap man whore kinky! MMMMM i love that dial..very very nice the thing is, amit, i was gonna give it to you as a present at the GTG....WHYYY were you not there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
trailboss99 996 Posted December 13, 2012 Niiiiice! I still think you paid a bit much but if you like it does that really matter? That bracelet is too good to wear mate, they are much harder to get looking new again than the watch case. Find a rep one and a used gen clasp, seriously. Not too shabby, not too shabby at all! You need more shoes though. LOL, I have a pair of thongs (flip flops to you northerners/Kiwis), a pair of roping boots and my fire boots and that's about it. Oh, there is a pair of black dress shoes for weddings and funerals but that's it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Frankt8242 1 Posted December 5, 2013 I just can't get my mind wrapped around anything marked "Tudor"...It will always be tainted in my mind as a watch you buy because you really want a Rolex, but can't afford one... And as WE all know....THAT problem has been solved!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
