I really like the watch but I’m not a fan of yellow. If it had an orange or red hand I’d order one asap.

That's the thing that's kept me away from Tudor thus far. To me personally it always felt like there were one or two things at least I would like to change.
The updated crown on this one is a step in the right direction. I miss the days when they were pretty much Rolex watches with a different logo.
The current product line is the best it's been for some time though.

There is also a two tone root beer GMT in their lineup this year. Not a bad looking piece IMHO.

Baco Noir That looks great as well. Seems as if Tudor could be attracting even more fans. One feature of both bracelets I like is the fact they appear riveted. Regardless to if they actually are or not, it adds nice touch.

I like both of these. I’m guessing they went with yellow so as not to get too close to reproducing the 1655?? One thing puzzles me is why there is so much hate for the riveted bracelet? I like it, it brings a bit of a retro vibe and it’s not cookie cutter oyster…

muckymark That's very likely why they made it just a bit different, regarding the 24 hours hand colour. A bit of a shame in a way, because the watch that inspired the design is very difficult to get hold of. Even so, very few would likely want to wear it as they should given how special it is. I haven't followed Tudor much at all, so wasn't aware some or many dislike the riveted bracelet. What a shame, as I can only think of a coupe others who still incorporate that styling on modern watches. Oris is one, I believe. The snowflake hand(s) have grown on me. I was seriously considering the Heritage Chronograph about two years ago. To me, both of the models above appeal more. Very few brands out there have watches as lovely as these, at least readily available and in that range. A Black Bay 58 in Blue would make such a nice trio with those. Image from Google A similar piece fit my very well, but I won't be buying one.

In pics, I’ll equate it to the use too much faux vintage lume.

I like that one too, a nice homage to the Exp2.

That blue BB 58 is amazing... I looked at their lineup yesterday and was surprised by the variety!
Yeah, I'm still ticking too. Life and inflation happens...
