Bracelet looks good but haven't tried it out yet


Real men, and spies wear this one on a NATO.

Looks awesome - Helenarou dial looks great - never saw that one before. Will it fit on a 2836 movement? As the gen is a 2824...

When I tried on the gen at an AD, 2 things stuck out for me;
1 - it has the nicest bezel action I've ever seen / felt - super crisp - the action and sound.
2 - this thing is deep. Like chronograph deep. Wish it was less tall as it makes the side opposite the crown look boring - that tall slab of metal.

I almost bought it. Glad I didn't, as the Black wasn't out at the time. And I hadn't found this place...

Yes I'm considering getting the HR dial. Would really set this one apart.
Also you're correct. True spies wear on Nato ;)

These tudors are such great looking reps!! I'm in shock looking at some of these reps on here. I usually wear gens, just placed my force order last Friday and it's already shipped. I ordered a Different watch but seeing these tudors, and Pams, etc are just blowing me away. Looks fantastic! Enjoy! I'm excited to get my watch. By the way.. I also ordered from Ryan. I love that guy so far. So easy to work with, great communication, etc. I honestly can't say enough about him and his staff [emoji3]

Agreed :)
It varies.
My DJ2 you saw took 7 days from purchase to my door.
This Black Bay took a month (3 weeks of sourcing the watch from factory and QC) then less than a week shipping

Yes I'm sure it will vary depending on what you are looking for. I'll bet that was a long month waiting. I'm already impatient enough ha ha [emoji39]

HR dial will fit either 2824 or 2836. I got one a couple months ago,beautiful,and am about to order two more, one in silver for my blue.

excellent.
Was curious about that.
Who are you sending to (modder) to swap out the dials for you?

I d.i.m. , it's not that difficult- just requires a little patience and a few tools. Check the tech section for a tutorial.

Or just ask around the boards, there's sure to be a friendly modder nearby willing to do this for a minimal fee.

This one from HR is a step up, $93 pp

Would you happen to have direct link?

I checked their website, but my best finding was sterile dial for $ 45 :(

Edit: Nevermind, just read this "Its not on the site" :)
