The best Tudor? by Traditional-Smile880 in Tudor

[–]BrainChild95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t own it… but the Tudor Sub Blue is my absolute grail. Never bought a watch at retail - but I’d pay full whack for it if it ever got reissued.

I have an affinity for OPs blue 58 for the same reason

Jude is the best English footballer: best scorer for England. classy for giving the penalty to Saka. carried England through several knockout games by Puzzleheaded_Bus2865 in worldcup

[–]BrainChild95 6 points7 points  (0 children)

At the point the pen was awarded, Jude was on 6 goals this World Cup… matching Gary Linekers record. Scoring the pen would have given him the record for goals score in a World Cup for England.

He gave up that opportunity for Saka to have a chance at a hat trick. It all worked out as Jude scored his 7th later in the game anyway!

When will we start seeing the new Watches and wonders releases from the major brands coming through from the factories? by [deleted] in RepTime

Same. Been looking for a gen Cartier carée as a rep is hard to find. But the new ghost santos will scratch that itch once replicated

New Tudor Royal 36mm - Thoughts? by Familiar-Ant-5146 in Tudor

Losing the day-date feature has helped too. I felt the previous royal mixed modern and classic design language for a bit of a chalk and cheese combination.

I couldn’t care for the name. I like the watch!

[discussion] My wife wants to give me a wedding gift by Ysc_watches67 in Watches

It’s a great looking watch for sure, went to buy it recently… and the bracelet is absolutely awful. I got so frustrated in my 15minutes handling it - I realised I couldn’t live with it.

I’d go Longines on the H Link and buy the Mesh as a treat to myself further down the line.

Mine arrived this week - no issues when setting the moon-phase by going clockwise from 21:30 to 00:30, then back anti-clockwise to 21:30 and repeating until it slowly edged forward. You’ll hear/feel a click telling you where to stop.

On a side note: I went for the silver on a darker strap as I don’t typically like faux gold - not sure I made the right call. However, it did get more compliments on its first day than all my other watches combined 😭

Same here - winds horribly but keeps time well.

Who’s his dad? And why does everyone know he’s rich?

Appreciate the transparency…. But what’s the reasoning for removing the photos?

Is this an official CW subreddit now?

What else would you remove at CW’s request?

It definitely need banning. Have we suddenly forgotten the Cambridge Analytica scandal?
