Watches - another OCD problem

[bbrtns]

The new Tudor looks great, I wonder what the availability will be like..

I went to the AD 2 weeks ago to go look at the new Ranger and was met with a "If you'd like one we can put you on the waiting list".

When asked when I would receive it he either told me "No idea, but I imagine it will be this year" or "No idea, but I imagine it will be within a year", I was not really paying attention at that moment.

The perfect grill timer and damn near perfect watch. It weighs almost nothing, has a timeless design (my opinion of course), is a quartz chronometer making great for grab and go, and it’s a real working tool used my pilots the world over. I’ve owned three Aerospace models, an 80s two tone, an Avantage, and now the Evo. This one wont be going anywhere.

Beautiful! I wish they still made it in 39mm and they were readily available.. Instead I'm leaning towards the Tudor Ranger, for which they've put me on a bloody waitlist.

@bbrtns you'd get used to the smaller size in a few days. Alternatively buy an Air-King, which has a similar dial in a larger case.

[bbrtns]

I'd have to try it on to see it. I have a 36mm day date that is very small on my wrist. It has a more formal look and looks great with a dress shirt one, but it's a watch I can't wear every day sadly.

Grand Seiko ‘Shunbun’…..

Birthday present to myself. Titanium and completely different from my other GS. Weighs next to fuck all on the wrist.

[mention]Cutlasshound [/mention] that’s a beautiful watch, wear it in good health.

I was in St Martin last week but didnt buy anything of note. I was severely tempted by an IWC MKXVIII but the deals werent strong enough to make me open my wallet.

About my Explorer, it makes me sad but I dont wear it hardly at all because of the risk of it getting stolen.

Well this I didnt see happening but here we are I went to my local watch shop to do some pricing on IWC models, and they had the one I wanted in stock at a good price. I was ready to whip out my credit card whenever Another jewelry store Clerk asked me if I had been on the tutor FXD list. Apparently there was one on order and the guy never came to pick it up so BOOM! Perfect Bday gift to myself.

[Matt]

So you got both, right?

[goosehd]

What a great B-day present!

[Cutlasshound]

Awesome! What do you think of it?
