Buy any watch if you want it regardless of list or discounted. Watches are to be worn not traded like stocks & shares. I bought the BB54 at list and don’t regret it one bit and it’s part of my watch collection to wear.
Never buy anything over retail should be the most important rule. With that being said, I like the AD experience and find comfort in buying directly from an authorized dealer. I can't wait until ADs start offering discounts again!
Back in the day I picked up an Explorer 2 white dial for 12% off retail and a women’s Datejust for 18% off! I remember them almost begging me to buy the green bezel Submariner! They were dogs back then! Ha!
Just as that 10% off of up to 5K deal ended I found what I wanted. Luckily that deal happens once in awhile yearly. During that time I noticed spikes in my viewer records haha
Man that looks nice the way they thinned it out. I had the original heritage model and sold it for the 58 but I liked the bezel markers on the heritage better. The gold on the 58 is okay but would prefer the silver. The red on this is fantastic and that rubber strap is killer. Pre-owned Tudor provides great value right now.
Buy retail if you’re not skilled with watches or don’t have years of experience. Don’t buy Rolex over retail. This Tudor will be available most places.
I would be weary of buying from grey market. If your warranty isn’t valid, you may have a problem in your hand. Tudor has a lot of movement issues. Having factory warranty is a blessing.
