commented on They say: Tudor is the poor man’s Rolex. ·

Nowadays Tudor very much has it’s own strong branding and identity, however earlier era models weren’t as distinct, and quite often shared cases and bracelet styles with their more expensive siblings. I rather think that is where this attitude comes from, but the above comment tends to be espoused by pricks or pricks who can’t afford either brand!

Be sensible, we all know how consuming this hobby can be, but always remember how subjective this is and a cheap watch can still be a great watch and always buy what you like 👍

It’s a very reasonable £12 on Ali express, it’s only on normal spring bars but still a bargain

Yes I like the look, but that’s because it’s a representation of a classic, I’d rather buy a Chinese homage for less than £100 instead; at least I’d get something that feels right on wrist
