Great video! I really appreciated your enthusiasm for the watch and its bezel (I also prefer the coke colors). By the way, what are your thoughts on the automatic version of this watch?

79263 has gold insert

Oh cool - thanks for the shout-out!

Great review. Which do you prefer between this and the BB58?

Really beautiful example - I want a white dial 89190 now! 8:13 I can see what you mean, drawing the parallel between this and the Explorer 2. But what this watch really reminds me of is the Cream Dial Explorer 2 Ref. 16550. Not only because of the cream color dial, but also because of the unpainted white gold hands and surrounds.

Mi dispiace per te ma stai confondendo il Reduced con il Date , è per quello che dici che è il peggior movimento non so cosa , in questo Orologio è incassato il ETA- Valjoux 7751 , un gran movimento invece dico io, pensa che in IWC sono riusciti con quel movimento li' a fare una modifica e farlo diventare anche rattrappante , parlo del Flieger Crono , un saluto dal nord Italia Bye

This video should have more views!

Nice client. Getting the Tudor representative in trouble by sharing the advice he told you. That will be the last time he shared some information.

If it already came out, then make a video!❤🎉

5514 avec des index cerclés .. dommage cadran de service

What size was your one in this video I’m looking at buying a 36mm but am worried it may be to small for my wrists

god what a whinging cry baby there is nothing wrong with the watch. To say you have been scammed just shows me you have some serious issues.

Sinn is a very solid brand for sure, a bit over priced for what you get in my opinion. Nice review 😊

How much did you pay ?

Great Review regarding about the servicing of the Tudor. I owned 3 Tudors as well. Prince Oyster Date (ref: 72033), Big Block Chrono (ref: 7170) this watch was the last gen with the Rolex's parts (Case back, pushers, & bracelet), and Prince Date Chrono Tiger (ref: 79280p). I was wondering what the cost for the overhaul service, then i saw your review regarding about the service cost. I bought all of them from Chrono24. I'm going to my local Authorized Tudor and speak with them in regards about the services.

do u usually wear your bracelets that loose?

Thanks for sharing! Do you have a link and where to purchase the book from? 😊

The slimming down of the lugs on the 36mm OP is in keeping with slimming down across the full model line. This wasn’t to target the female market, as its been across all model lines. The super case marked Rolex’s foray into the modern updated steel/ceramic era and is now scaling back across the board to appear more streamlined. The substantial decrease in size say the 34mm OP the 124200 vs the 114200 however was done to achieve that, with its 18mm bracelet and 40mm lug to lug. Perhaps even the newest 36mm Explorer with its 19mm lug width and significant taper to 14mm. However the 36mm explorer does have historical Rolex roots dating back to 35mm precisions of the past which had the same bracelet width and taper, so there was a historical precedent in men’s size so its difficult to say for sure. The new 34mm OP however was never made in its current diminutive dimensions….but again there were 31mm oysters back in the day for men that wore even smaller so who knows. I personally think the perception of ladies wearing men’s size watches is far less common than talked about. Sure there are niche (and wealthy) women who will wear a Daytona. But most women opt for the 31mm datejust more than any watch on the market still. I think if a woman wants an oversized watch…they wouldn’t be put off by .35 mm lug widths, I’d think that would actually be a plus to achieve a “chunkier” oversized look. Just my 2 cents!

I got the Tudor Pelagos LHD as it didn't look like a Rolex, in any way , I also like the north flag ( now discontinued) for the same reason. I love Tudor but think they have too much obsession with the past and should have more unique models in the collection too

look gay

chrono listing def overpriced, come to hong kong u will know how low the price is

That’s picky pickles

I own the same watch with a gray dial. Excellent watch and great value.

My wife gifted me this watch for our wedding. We found it at the Chicago Tiffany store and she knew I had been searching for it (the golden one, but that one seems to have sold out when it launched). I enjoy wearing it and seeing the display back. Also cool to see that Michael B. Jordan wore one in some events and also spotted Jeff Goldblum wearing the golden one in a Tiffany commercial. A special watch for me!

I watched this video a couple weeks ago. I had heard about this Tudor book but have never saw it in person. After watching, I decided to hunt for one. Found it listed on Chrono 24 in Germany. Ordered it last week and it arrived today. Absolutely blown away with the information provided. I'm having a blast this evening searching for Tudors I didn't even know existed. Thanks for the tip! 👍

I'm literally wearing my recently acquired, identical model. I absolutely love it; perfect weight, fit, love the styling, just a great piece.

I purchased my 5514 with HEV from a vintage watch shop in the UK. It still has the COMEX in that case back but my etched number has significantly worn off, but at certain angles you can kinda still see it. As I understand it the PRE COMEX watches were the "testing" watches. I'm not 100% on that, maybe someone has heard differently? Nice video. I also have a double referenced 5513/5517 MILSUB which is extremely rare.

Calibre 3230 movement....im not impressed with it....3 years later my watch is -5 seconds per day...ive heard there is generally an issue with calibre 32XX movement

36mm more balanced than the 39mm, double batons on the 3 6,9..

Call it what they want, I would like to see a Tudor 40mm Submariner.

I am turning into a Tudor Fan boy, I have a Tudor Submariner 75190 36 mm, the white dial Hydronaut 89190 on its way from Japan , and a Tudar date Day 36 mm 76213.

I just ordered this watch, Rolex triple lock crown,white dial, Love the TIGER on the dial. Rolex Quality for a better price. Great Video thank you. I paid under 2000 USD tariff will be about 100 usd, not too bad.

The 5514 is a very special watch but here it has a service dial (probably hands) and service bezel insert. Very little interest here. Would have been much better with the original tritium matte dial

What you have is a franken watch

Great vid . These were real working divers watches . The latter dual signed ones tended to end up with the execs and given away as freebies to the US Oil Executives in order to monopolise the North Sea IRM contracts. They were delivered to rigs and DSV ‘s in deco chambers without boxes ;)

You got hair on your nuts yet?

Very interesting - great video!

Great video mate! Your genuine enthusiasm is infectious as well as your love for vintage Rolex/Tudor. A fond memory wherein I encountered a vintage watch and was taken aback would include my best friend's 1964 Seiko World Time Tokyo Olympics Special Edition. It had belonged to his father who enjoyed it to the fullest (as seen from the scratches on the plexiglass crystal, case wear). Keep up the great vids - always looking forward to your next one!

Superb piece

I saw one of these in Tokyo for around 10k cad was pretty surprised

Thats how all helium escape valves should be, barely visible lol very cool piece

I am not interested in metas, but if the blue 58 had a better clasp, less text on the dial and blue lume, I’d buy it tomorrow.

I saw a silver case with gold numbers on the dial. Is it from the recent release?

How much was the watch selling for?? Just subbed!

I hbe a 16600 seadweller without out the bezel click and thats by choice. No one needs a 120 click bezel. Theyre for virgins.

I feel ya. So many 16610s - and other older references for that matter - gets molested to the extent that folks like you and I will not consider them. Older Rolex watches from the 80s, 90s, and early-2000s are often customized by resellers looking to make a quick buck, too; and sometimes you cannot restore these customized Rolex watches to their original, authentic state. Rolex will not service them, because Rolex considers mods or custom Rolex watches to be counterfeit. The only market for these watches are non watch enthusiasts, i.e, the general public that just want Rolex on their wrist. Unfortunately, that makes up the majority of Rolex consumers. I was talking to a fellow that is four months away from graduation of med school. His father gifted him a two-tone ceramic blue Rolex submariner - reference 116613. He wasn't aware of the legendary watch on his wrist; he knew nothing about it. I asked him if he knew about Tudor, and he replied "no." I was baffled, because while he has a respectable college education, he knows absolutely nothing about wristwatches, or even anything notable about the watch on his wrist.

First

Lucky you. I would have enjoyed attending; my inner nerd would be on full display. The education coupled with the display of amazing - and even legendary - watches in one event would make anyone like us happy. I have studied incabloc on the net. It was cool to see these physical educational model displays (the incabloc display is expensive).

I owned one exactly like yours for 10+ years, I miss it, should have never sold it!

Thank you for sharing your wonderful experience. You are very expert.👍
