Incoming: Tudor 75090!

Picked this up on eBay this weekend.
It's getting delivered today! I am beyond excited!

Quick question - are the blue versions much more desirable than the black ones?
How much up charge do they command?

Very nice. Blue is a little less comon than the black, but they seem to go for similar prices here in Hong Kong (just under us$2k on average).

looks cool, do they use the 16610 case for the tudor subs? or is there no 40mm tudor sub?

I'd file those under "Questions you should probably ask BEFORE you purchased the watch"

Yeah, the "mini" version is 33mm, if I remember correctly. I was thinking about one for my wife, at one point.

Asdfhswhwhsk! It's gorgeous! My relatively small wrists are going to save me some money.
Mid-size is where my wrist is at.

It fits you very well- the polar and the blue tudor make a great pair.

Congrats and enjoy...!
