Wow Bill. Seems like you've caught the Tudor bug bad, what with the Heritage Chrono and this in the space of a few days. :excited:

Both great looking pieces. :fro:

The upcoming Black Bay should round out this part of your collection nicely.

:cheers:

That is a great looking combo, Bill, I forget that is a current issue Tudor, I wish Rolex would learn from Tudor and make straps and depolyants like that for their current lineup, and for their past lineups as well!

I was just looking at those on Tudor's site. They make a cool Flyback Chrono version of that too.

I was just told by the seller that hew brought the Tudor to his Rolex AD and wanted him to refinish the case and the AD did so. Now that is a good seller and he sending it to me overnight.

Thanks Tom.
