Hey Guys, For some of you ADs are plentiful in your local city.In mine we have one and today I visited that dealer. The first thing that grabbed me was that are basically a Rolex store.Nothing but Rolex watches and Tudors. Yes Tudors,Some nice watches but the dials on the new ones especially the improved Tudor Chronograph Daytona (It's got a date ;D ;D) are a little out there. They have the word Chrono in large letters super imposed on the dial.A shame as they would be very stylish. Anyhow on casual chatting I found a discount can be had on some models.A SS Daytona was in stock and the new GMTs are very hard to get. As I said earlier,for some this experience is not new but for me it was a Buzz considering I have quite a few Subs,GMTs and a Seadweller already. I also got a neat Rolex catalogue.the only problem is I got a dirty look from the wife when I got home. ;D Regards Aaron

Hey Aaron! I got to sample Tudor for the first time when I was in Zurich on Monday. You're right...a little "out there" on some designs. Man....you should've snapped up that Daytona...were they charging retail?

Does Tudor use ETA movements, or are they in house?

I believe Tudor movements are outsourced, probably to ETA, but I could be wrong...
