Tudor one time buyer advice

[gillsneaker]

Hi everyone,

I'm quite active on buying luxury reps such as LV etc and quite aware how it all works. I work for a big luxury women bags brand and most of people in my office are big show off (including me). I just want to make a one time purchase of Tudor Black Bay 58 rep and was wondering where it would be best to get it? I just want to buy once and never show up here again(Maybe). I'm based in Australia so if someone have extra Australian advice would love it.

I'm not too fussy about small imperfections and will live with a watch that's not easy to call out in person. Looking forward to your responses, Thank you!

Thanks for quick reply, so it’s basically same factory for production and these dealers act as middle man?

Yes.

ZF is the factory that makes the BB58 rep. Any TD can source it for you.

RWI's newest probationary trusted dealer (YourWatch) is offering the Black Bay 58 at a substantial discount relative to other trusted dealers ($259 USD vs. $288 USD at most other TDs). In addition, until the end of this month they are offering a further 10% off with the discount code 10OFF. Here is a link to their page for the Black Bay 58: https://yourwatch.io/watch-brands/2...-best-edition-black-dial-on-ss-bracelet-a2824

I haven't gone through a complete purchase with YourWatch yet, but I am in the process of my first purchase with them (just waiting for my QC photos), and so far the experience has been positive.

The choice of TD aside, the Black Bay 58 is a nice rep, but the lume on the dial markers and hands is too light/pale compared to the genuine watch, which is a very easy tell for anyone that has seen the genuine watch. The dial is also flat/non-textured and pale compared to the genuine watch, but the lume is more obvious than the dial (see photo below; ZF replica on the left and genuine watch on the right).

Have you looked at the Tudor GMT and the Blue Black Bay 58? Both very nice reps

Yes, that's normal. In my experience, courier shipping with the TDs that I have used is $35-$45 USD.
