For all the talk of the new Tudor Coke...

[JParm]

I still come back to the rose as my "1" Tudor. One that I don't wear too often, but is still a beauty every time I strap it on.

While I have a collection of Rolex, I can't seem to bring myself to adding another Tudor to the box. Some Tudors look nice enough and the Coke definitely looks intriguing, but for some reason they just don't sway me enough to necessiate spending the money on them.

In fact, Rolex is the only brand that I have more than one watch from. Anyone else?

I've owned a few Tudors, with the last one being a BB58 Blue. I'd have been content to own a Black Bay as my only watch and live the rest of my life without considering another piece. However, due to this 'watch disease' resulting in a collection of watches, I found myself not wearing the Tudors often. They always became the last option when deciding what to wear, and if I did decide to wear a Tudor, it would always end up back in the safe after a few hours. I no longer have any Tudors in my collection. I prefer a Grand Seiko and Omega in that price range. They’re much more interesting and unique than Tudor.

I have three Omegas, a Mk40 Speedmaster, a Seamaster, and my late father in law’s Chronostop. I’m often tempted by a Tudor (during lockdown i got interested in the 925) but i’ve never pulled the trigger. Only one Rolex.

Something special about that rose on the dial! Not sure why they went back to the shield tbh

[Beto737]

The rose chrono is cool… But the new “coke” is underwhelming to me…

[Guppydriver]

I'm not keen on having more than two models from any brand other than Rolex as well.

That said, I have two Omegas purely based on the distinct difference between the Speedmaster and Seamaster lines.

My Pelly LHD is my one Tudor. I could eventually add another, but I could see them being replaced by Rolex when/if I got allocated for the watches I want.

My collection is comprised of predominantly Rolex and Tudor. Tudor’s releases are always more exciting than Rolex for me but there is never a need to add another Black Bay because I already have an ETA Black Bay. That being said, I am very interested in the solid gold Black Bay 58. Also waiting for Tudor to update the heritage chronograph line or release the big block in a gulf color scheme

I love my Black Bay Pro and find myself wearing it more than any other watch at the moment. I tend to wear it on the t-fit bracelet during the Autumn / Winter and a generic Crafter Blue Black FKM strap during Spring / Summer or if I want a more under the radar look.

I think the BB GMT is unbeatable for the money.

But I do love the new Cartier Dual Time

Tudor black bays do look alike.

Just the opposite for me. Haven't been tempted to buy another Rolex for almost 20 years. Tudor, on the other hand, has continued to release watches that hit the right chord for me. The 5 digit vintage design aesthetic, modern proportions & performance, new cutting edge releases, as well as affordability & availability, have positioned the brand beyond anything I thought possible back when I started this hobby.

I absolutely love the ceramic and I’m so glad I added it to the collection!

[bioyuki]

In my collection of Rolex, Patek, Grand Seiko, Seiko, Omega, etc., the Pelagos FXD probably gets the most wrist time. I think in terms of value, excitement, catering towards enthusiasts and what they want, I think Tudor is at the top of the game right now.

What you get for ~$5k from Tudor is absolutely insane. Real talk, Tudor is what Rolex was 15 years ago.

[Hollie_Rollie]

The original black bays were amazing! I loved the rose dial. Wish they would bring those back…

Yes black black bay hmmm?

I love the idea of the new BB58 GMT but i'm not a big fan of gilt so i'll wait until a different colorway to come out to try to buy one.

But yes, I will almost certainly buy a BB58 GMT at some point. It checks all the boxes for a GMT for me.

[Dave O]

I have three Tudor's and love them all. I really like my Opaline GMT on Jubilee. So much so that I also ordered one for my black GMT (Uncle Seiko using the Tudor clasp). I also like my Panda Chrono on leather. I like the thickness of the new GMT, just not thrilled with the gilt color.

[TheHulk]

Bought Tudors in two different occasions and neither say one month. They do nothing for me personally

[Scottyboy]

I have an awful lot of time for what Tudor are currently offering. As a brand, they seem to listen to their customers and give us watch geeks something to get excited about every year, same can't always be said for its big brother.

I have an issue with the faux rivets, and I honestly believe Rolex big wigs have told Tudor they are not allowed to release any sports models with a traditional 3 link bracelet. I know the Ranger has it, but that for me sits in a slightly different range.

I've had 4 Tudors over the years, GMT, Chrono (first iteration), BB58 blue and I currently own a BB54 on rubber. The latter is the only Tudor I still own, I love the rubber strap and clasp combination, and the size of the BB54 is wonderful. And I have 7.25 - 7.5 inch wrists.

Nice pix Omar.

[Krash]

New Tudor Coke had a lot of potential. The faux rivets are something I could live with but the gilt is a deal breaker for me.

I am a Tudor fan and have owned most of the Black Bay line-up at one time or the other.

[watchwatcher]

For me, it's all about finding balance in a watch collection. That number is going to vary, as you can see by the responses to this thread.

[MDMH]

Big fan didn’t see too many posted on here. Not sure how they’re gonna transition the lineup? Seems like it’s gonna take years 1 color at a time

[Lightsped]

Love my single Tudor. Unplanned purchase at the Tudor AD in Milan. I am sure I will be adding a second Tudor sometime this year.

[alphadweller]

I've never wanted a Tudor. Never found their watches inspiring nor good looking. Would much rather add an Omega or a Breitling in that price range.
