PSA : Do Not Buy A Tudor Watch at Retail & First impressions of Black Bay 41mm Burgundy M7941A1A0RU

[@kelvin.008]

Bought half a dozen from profile builders at up to 50% discount from RRP..😊

[@HawaiianHorology]

great deal!

[@novainvicta]

Buy any watch if you want it regardless of list or discounted. Watches are to be worn not traded like stocks & shares. I bought the BB54 at list and don’t regret it one bit and it’s part of my watch collection to wear.

[@HawaiianHorology]

I agree I'm just trying to save people some money

[@crossbones8956]

I bought my BB Heritage when the 58 came out, picked it up used with box a grand under retail.

[@HawaiianHorology]

great deal!

[@NeoWahNah]

Never buy anything over retail should be the most important rule. With that being said, I like the AD experience and find comfort in buying directly from an authorized dealer. I can't wait until ADs start offering discounts again!

[@HawaiianHorology]

Yeah I agree nothing over retail. I remember when I first was interested in picking up my explorer 1 in 2017 I was offered it tax free as a discount!

[@BLR653]

Back in the day I picked up an Explorer 2 white dial for 12% off retail and a women’s Datejust for 18% off! I remember them almost begging me to buy the green bezel Submariner! They were dogs back then! Ha!

[@HawaiianHorology]

I wish we could go back to those deals lol

[@A_Dude_And_His_Watch78]

Man that looks nice the way they thinned it out. I had the original heritage model and sold it for the 58 but I liked the bezel markers on the heritage better. The gold on the 58 is okay but would prefer the silver. The red on this is fantastic and that rubber strap is killer. Pre-owned Tudor provides great value right now.

[@HawaiianHorology]

Yeah the bezel color is amazing and I agree pre-owned is an amazing value!

[@cmatz175]

Just as that 10% off of up to 5K deal ended I found what I wanted. Luckily that deal happens once in awhile yearly. During that time I noticed spikes in my viewer records haha

[@HawaiianHorology]

I hope they do another one again soon!

[@machyne82]

I don’t pay retail for seikos. But I don’t mind for Tudor or Grand Seiko and my Rolex AD. I know it will pay later

[@edwin9395]

almost no discounts on the more popular models like bb54 though. Do you think price will drop further like the bb58 on the 2nd hard market?

[@HawaiianHorology]

Yes I do I already have seen some 54s selling for around 3500usd so that's around 500 off!

[@Beansb0]

@@HawaiianHorologywhere, I’ve been trying to find one

If you want a hard to Aquire watch you need to spend all your money at 1 AD with 1 SA. If that’s your goal. If you just want one watch go grey! :)

[@HawaiianHorology]

good advice!

[@EDHBlvd]

I would be weary of buying from grey market. If your warranty isn’t valid, you may have a problem in your hand. Tudor has a lot of movement issues. Having factory warranty is a blessing.

[@HawaiianHorology]

thanks for the info

[@RabbitWatchShop]

What movements problems? That’s news to me

[@HawaiianHorology]

the only one I know if is the GMT movement but that was fixed years ago

[@EDHBlvd]

@@RabbitWatchShopthe GMT’s and some of the BB58 movements. Multiple people, including myself, had faulty movements in their BB58 925.

[@EDHBlvd]

@@RabbitWatchShopalso the BB Ceramic with the first METAS movement had problems when it first came out.

[@patrik3450]

Buy retail if you’re not skilled with watches or don’t have years of experience. Don’t buy Rolex over retail. This Tudor will be available most places.

[@HawaiianHorology]

Retail or less for sure!

[@LemonJelloQQQ]

Best place for watch shopping in Maui?

[@HawaiianHorology]

no too sure I remember about 5 or 6 years ago I went to baron and leeds in Wailea and they offer my an explorer tax free!

[@LemonJelloQQQ]

@@HawaiianHorology A man can dream! I'll check them out :)

[@HawaiianHorology]

haha yeah i think they got bought out by tourneau now
