I like the chronograph more than I initially did. Normal bracelet, normal hands, different crown, different dial... ok, I guess the case, bezel, and movement are nice enough.

For Rolex, Turnograph Thunderbird re-issue???

That Tudor Chrono, if that is what they are revealing tomorrow is meh...
The Tudor is a done deal. Already announced.

I'm thinking a TOG on the DJ41 case.
I think they're phasing out the 41mm case.

Whyyyyyyyyyy would they do that.

Apparently it's also 43mm.

116600 is gone from their site.

There's a two tone BB and a 41mm version of the ugly no bezel BB.

So far I haven't seen anything from omega Tudor Rolex that I find remotely interesting. Some are positively hideous.

Guess my 116600 is officially a keeper now.
