Happy early Father's Day to me from my AD



Are you a lefty? Gotta be even more awesome if you're a lefty. Congrats either way

I'm a lefty and I can't get myself to wear a watch on the right wrist. I've tried this on a couple of times and couldn't get used to it.

I heard wearing a watch on your right wrist was the same as only wearing an earring in your right ear

I am a lefty and life long right wrist watch wearer. So this watch is meant for me.

On a related note I discovered today I have no idea how to set a watch or unscrew a crown with my left hand.

+1. Even prior to getting my Aggie Ring but 10x more so with it.

Same thing happened to me. I finally bought a destro and it felt weird winding and setting the crown. It is backwards of backwards, since it winds and sets clockwise instead of counterclockwise.

Tudor has never been on my radar but came across this today and have come back to it a couple times. 70 hr power reserve is also attractive...

It kind of has a Panerai vibe. I like it.
TulaneAg

Agreed and I've been on a Panerai kick lately so that makes sense. But this is 39mm and reasonable thickness which is hard to find in the Panerai. This one is $2200 which I think is reasonable for the spec.

If anyone is having a panerai itch I've got the limited edition regatta PAM00526. Watch only for $7300. Badass piece. Look up comps.. this is cheap

Love the new 100th anniversary of the 24 hr of Le Mans Daytona that Rolex released today. A reverse panda.

If I'm blowing 60k on a watch it's going to be that black/grey bezel solid gold gmt.

Fake Barnes would have had the first prototype of each.

Barnes is to busy *****ing about trump on politics board to care about watches

That's fake Barnes that can't get both watches I assume
Daytona22

Yeah. They've said msrp will be $52k. Bet that secondary will be around $150 I'd imagine. Pretty cool
To switch to a 24 hr chrono.

WOW I was thinking it'd be about $22k or so, and sell on the secondary for 3x. Is it white gold?
Daytona22
How long do you want to ignore this user?

Yeah it's white gold. Ceramic bezel. Updated 4131 movement they're calling the 4132. Changing it from a 12 hour chrono to a 24 hour. Also has a display case back like the new platinum.

Nice looking watch, but I have to imagine Steinhart (or a variety of other German companies) have made very similar watches for much less.

I love that Ranger. If they had that Ranger available when I was looking, I probably would have bought that instead of my BB36.

The scope of Genta influence in horological circles is pretty amazing.

Although I've been looking closely at Milsub, Rolex GMT and IWC bit pilot, as well as Patek and A Lange, I do keep returning to Swiss-German pieces, and Steinhart in particular.

To me, the most critical component is quality - I prefer European construction, and similar Swiss movements as Hamilton, Tissot, Tag Heuer, IWC. I'll write-up my next purchase.

I'm in OKC on business and went and visited the local Rolex AD. They had zero Rolexes available but they were super cool; and they did have one of the new Tudor Pepsi Opaline GMT's in stock so I bought it
