Well got some good news for me, not so good news for my wife. A local jewelry, about 5 miles (maybe 10), got the right to sell Tudor watches. Oh boy. I have been admiring these watches from afar for quite a few years. To make matters worse, they are having a special open house to celebrate on Friday, the 25th. Free cocktails and food. This even does not bode well for my wife.
I must resist, I must resist.

Pick out what you want, and then ask Roger's buddy to find one for you...... Explain to wifey how much money you saved by buying from a fellow forum member.......... Good luck with that resistance thing.....

Like Kat said, window shop and then get in touch with Thanh Do ( takuya) and see what kind of discount he can do for you. He's been great to deal with on the AP and IWC. |

Uh oh, Dex is in trouble! 1000% agree with Kat and Roger. Go there to check out the event, look and mingle to see what it's all about and compare to his prices leading you to the final choice. This way if you buy from him you'll have even more cash left over to get your wife a little something.

Well, you'll have even more cash left over to get your wife something bigger and better. Don't forget the wine.  |

If you haven't seen these in person, make sure you try one on with a fabric strap. I'm all about steel bracelets, but these woven straps are the cat's meow. It's not your regular NATO. Both the Black Bay and the Heritage Chrono feels wonderful on that strap.

Not sure if it is some chemical in my perspiration or the fact I shower only on leap years. Food for thought. |

I broke down a little bit, and visited the Tudor web site. I found this model which seems to be singing to me... 
I suspect it costs a pretty penny. It will keep me from buying it. |
