Yeah, I was going to say $19k is massively expensive.

Wolf is running a 60% off sale on some of their winders, boxes, etc. I picked up a roll. I almost pulled the trigger on a winder, but I just couldn't convince myself I'd get any value out of one.

I'm assuming that is third parties selling through the Walmart website?

Have no idea. I had to order something for my mom and that popped up. I didn't even look. If you search "Rolex" on Walmart it does bring up results

Zenith came in, great watch for the money. Gorgeous dial and bezel and the tricolor dials give it that bit of unique ness.

Also quite smallish for 41mm but not too small. Wears very comparable to the submariner, but feels larger than the Daytona, which I felt was way too small.

You guys with Tudors... care to post some pics? I'm interested in seeing how the different color dials look.

I have pretty much narrowed my first "high-end" watch purchase to a Tudor BB or BB58 (pending size on my wrist once I get to try them on). I know these still aren't high-end as compared to some on this thread, but compared to the couple of Seiko autos I have, they are a big step up.

FTAC, are you able to get Tudor? And if so, are we looking at MSRP, higher, lower?

Can't post a picture right now, but if you can look back through this thread for my posts, I have a couple of pictures of my Blue BB58, both on a bracelet and on a strap.

The size of the BB58 is wonderful and super comfortable, particularly if you have a smaller than average wrist (as I do).

And FTAC got me the Tudor.

Thanks for the post. I found your BB58 and like the look a lot. My wrist are about the same size as yours, so I'm expecting the BB to be a little large for my liking and will probably end up with a 58. Although I really like the GMT.

Yes I can get Tudor. New will be running very close to msrp on just about everything. Some are going higher right now like the new chrono.

Feel free to hit me up when you decide on which one you want.

I love it. Doesn't have the date function, but that also makes for a very clean look, and not as thick as the BB.

Really feels like a perfect size. Also is a strap monster. I haven't used the bracelet since I bought it. Just on a bunch of different straps. Fun to change them to fit what I'm wearing or mood.

Black Bay 41 Blue. Came on a blue nato, but I wear it on a black Everest strap. It's my favorite summer watch for Houston weather. More comfortable than a leather strap, nato or bracelet once we hit maximum humidity time of the year!

Straight ball, I hit very much.

I saw the new Pelagos FXT in person and it's definitely worth adding to the list to look at between the 58 and BB. It's a 42 but seems closer to a 41 or 40 in real life due to the bezel extending past the case edge. It would make an awesome everyday beater between the titanium case, ceramic bezel, and fabric/rubber straps. I also like that it's a countdown timer vs count up.

Here's a pic of my 58:
