The Watch Thread - Part 9

[villan]

Aargh its times like this that i regret the impulsiveness of selling off my black bay black last year :/ not that i didnt like it, just that watch proved too top heavy for my liking and the bracelet doesnt taper enough. had to take it off when wearing after a few hours

so its not comfortable? as compared to sub? will sub be much more comfy?

No difference to me lol. But I don't have a sub. However I tried on both.

I hv both Pelagos and sunburst sub. Sub is still more comfortable.

of course sub is more comfy la due to tapered bracelet. Normally rolex is 20 - 17 but Tudor BB is 22 - 20?? Furthermore rolex uses only 904L SS bracelet while tudor is 312L??

i think the quality of the steel don't matter.
hmm. rolex tapers more.
tudor bb is 22-20mm right
it's the design of the bracelet.

During my test of the blackbay, got one aspect I think not as good as Rolex bracelet is the chance of catching ur hair is higher.

Got giam a few time and I am not even hairy!

I think it does but probably to a small extent? 2 different types of steel bro

I use them on my seiko, which I only wear during activities that are not delicate.

No problems whatsoever.

I didn't punch any holes.

The straps come with the quick release spring bars pre installed.

If have also Very minimal. Placebo effect.
Rolex bracelet just more solid feeling that's all.
The design of the bracelet actually plays the biggest part on How it fits someone's wrist.
How is made and all but material, I feel not so.
That's what I think la haha

Anyway those who wanna whack black bay all colors better act fast. Last hear AD all stop giving huge discounts or rather nothing at all. They know these are in demand. Especially the black piece. Even certain Grey dealer prices went up to 4.6k approx for bracelet.
Also the new tudor pieces will be in likely July or August.
Black most sought after then red and blue respectively.

I have lobang still but not super awesome discount la. Don't expect 15% or more now. Especially black.
Those looking for 15% or more pls don't pm me. Good luck. I suggest you look for Pre-owned.

Hope these helps for those looking to hoot the black bay.
