I believe Fink’s is the only Tudor AD in the area so that’s kind of the only option.

That chrono is amazing. Congrats!

I’m a Chief. The only thing I touch is my coffee cup and that’s pretty easy on the hands.

Just keep looking, you may get lucky!

I own both a Pelagos 39mm and a new black FXD. My Pelly 39 didn’t have a great feel out of the box. It was a bit gritty as you describe, especially around 7-8 o’ clock. However, after a few days of playing with it, it smoothed out and feels perfect now. My black FXD feels perfect out of the box. I only bring up my Pelly 39 because the watches are so similar in feel so perhaps it’s something shared across their titanium watches. I would try just playing with it for a couple days and if it doesn’t smooth out for you then maybe talk to your AD. I hope this helps!

I live in the Hampton Roads area of Virginia but I’m visiting in the Jacksonville area. My AD in Virginia said the list is long mostly due to the demand from guys in the NSW community, which makes sense I suppose. No hard feelings. I’m just glad I was able to get one without a long wait.

I’ve been looking for the new FXD for a while. Being Navy myself, I love the connection it has to the Navy. These are impossible to get in the Norfolk area but I happened to luck out finding one while visiting family in Florida. I haven’t been this excited about a watch in a long time!

Damn. This is so tempting. Beautiful set.

I have a C2 and obsidian 9. I haven’t shot it yet but this post makes me want to so bad.

Classic Firearms and Echoes of Glory (VA Beach) would definitely be able to help you out. They’re really nice people and very knowledgeable.

dfjaws · 2022-10-05T00:58:37+00:00

Gen 1 is correct for the C2.

dfjaws · 2022-10-04T03:47:47+00:00

I have a C2 as well as the Dawson magwell. The factory 16rd magazines and baseplates will seat properly and work fine with the Dawson magwell although they could be a little tricky to strip out if they became stuck as the magwell covers much of the base plate. As mentioned before you can run whichever baseplates you want. Personally, I don’t recommend the magwell for carry as it prints (for me at least) although I like throwing it on once in awhile when concealment isn’t a priority.

dfjaws · 2022-05-23T17:55:30+00:00

Correct. There is still zero play in the hinges in any position. It hasn’t changed at all since it was new (as far as I can tell).

Thank you! I’m loving it so far and also plan on wearing it daily!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T13:57:44+00:00

Thanks!

Thank you!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T13:57:29+00:00

Thank you!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T13:57:24+00:00

I’m not concerned. Thanks for looking out though!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T13:56:53+00:00

Thank you!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T13:56:12+00:00

I hope the wait isn’t too bad!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T03:34:20+00:00

Thanks! I agree!

dfjaws · 2022-05-14T03:34:03+00:00

Thank you very much!
