Icon12 2nd Tudor....By Coincidence (BB41 5-Link Monochrome)

I've always wanted to add a Tudor watch so in 2023, I purchased my first Tudor, a Black Bay 58 Blue. You can see it below next to my Omega Seamaster 300M in blue as well.

As for Tudor #2, I was at a local AD to compare the green and white dial of the Santos de Cartier in large. I ended up choosing the green one.

The lovely shop manager then mentioned that the new Tudor from W&W2024 just arrived from the courier and asked if I wanted to see it. This was last Saturday (April 20) and she barely got back from the event herself. Needless to say, it's a stunning watch and I had to have it as well. No questions asked.

How does it wear in comparison with the Omega? I have a BB58 on strap and want a second Tudor. Had a white dial Seamaster 300M but parted with it. Felt my 6.5" wrist didn't wear the way I would have wanted it to.

I have a 7.5" wrist but to be honest with you, I haven't worn it yet since purchase. I wear my watches on a monthly rotation - 1 watch per month. This month is occupied by the Santos.

I suggest checking it out personally at your local AD. There's also the Burgundy to try as a substitute if this is unavailable. They all come with the T-fit clasp, which is awesome, and your choice of 3-Link, 5-Link, or black rubber strap. For me, the 5-Link did it. If it were the other 2, I probably would have passed.

I'm surprised by how widely these seem to be cropping up.

ADs that were supposed to let me know when they got the 2023 Burgundy or 54 still haven't followed up lol.
