I've learned my lesson about settling for Tudors when I couldn't get the Rolex I wanted at retail. Granted, I’m a bit of a Rolex fanboy, but deep down, Rolex has always been the option I truly desired. I ended up selling my Tudors as soon as I got the call for the Rolex. Now, I'm down to one Tudor and up to five Rolexes.
That's impressive for a $52 watch. Ceramic bezels are resilient, holding up well under daily wear as long as they avoid high-impact shocks. It really shows how the manufacturing costs for these components are much lower than the retail prices we see from brands like Rolex.
I think this one's sticking around in the Rolex catalog for a bit—after all, the CEO himself wears one, and he's a lefty too!
Thanks for your kind words, David! I'm so sorry for my late reply. I truly appreciate your support and enjoy sharing my collection and insights with you. Hope you're having a great day too! Cheers my friend! 🥂
