Hi Guys,
If you follow me on Instagram (@barkandjack), then you will have seen shots of this Tudor Black Bay Harrods Edition. It's a great looking piece, and pretty hard to find.
They can only be bought from the Tudor AD in Harrods, London and the wait list is about 12 months.
I wasn't allowed to keep it, despite it being a great investment watch.
I thought I'd buy it and do an in-depth hands-on review of the Tudor Black Bay Harrods Edition Ref. 79230G.

@@johnfrei9057 I'm okay with crown guards so long as they're done correctly. Before the Submariner started on roids, they had the right idea: elegantly swooping curves like a 60's sports car. I would not consider a modern one. I own the Z-Blue Milgauss which no crown guards, and I like that vintage look. The difference is in the crown itself though on the Rolexes - they're compact and unobtrusive. This Black Bay's crown looks like the tuning knob on a vintage radio or something. It protrudes from the case quite a bit, it's large, and has an unfinished appearance. In my opinion.

Congratulations Adrian. I too as supposedly on the waiting list, but living here in the States I doubt I ever hear from Harrods. That said now that the Black Bay Fifty Eight is out I'd rather have a Harrod's version of that. I'm probably being nitpicky, but I would prefer the second hand not to be tipped and of course the shield on the dial to be a rose. Still that's for me arguably the best looking Black Bay you can get.

Adrian (I hope I spelled that correctly), those little balls on the clasp of the Tudor bracelet are made of ceramic. They are ceramic ball bearings and They should last decades, if not the full life of the watch itself. I wish other watch makers would follow Tudor in their bracelet designs. Probably one of the best double lock designs I’ve seen on a modern watch....love your vids btw...top notch!

I truly can't justify most things I own.....I simply like owning cool stuff. Have you considered the Green-Sub? Maybe trade the Tudor and Green-Bezel-Rolex towards it? Have you also considered a Datejust-41? Many people obsess on Steel-Sport-Stunners and overlook the Datejust. I finally bought one this past summer and LOVE it! I'm not much for coloring on watches....that said, my AD phoned past week and I picked up my new 2018 Blue/Red-GMT-II.....so don't take my advice! Thanks Adrian....let's have TEA!

Hi Adrien, the other difference between the Harrods BB and regular BB is the depth measurment on the dial is in the reverse order, The "660ft" is before the "200mtrs" text, a nod to imperial mesurements used in the UK.

Sorry Steve you're wrong, UK is a metric country. Road distances and vehicle speeds are shown in miles but all business, engineering, construction... everything is done in metric. Those little numbered posts by the side of the motorway - there kilometer markers for the highways maintenance guys to know which part of the road they're on 😂 The ISO for dive watches is all metric. The only reason Swiss watch makers put feet on watches is for the American market. Sad but true.

@28smiddy 5 жыл бұрын
James, I'm fully aware, as I'm sure most people are, that the UK uses metric, I remember as a child switching from imperial to metric. The point I was making is that the measurements on the dial are in the reverse order, when compared to a regular Black Bay. This is due to Harrods being a UK company and UK traditional measurements are still often stated using imperial. A nod to our past measuring system, which for many people is still being used, myself included.

Another difference is the depth has ft before metres homage to uk, other bb's have metres first. Tudor are smashing it just now with there line of watches. The harrods watch is a keeper for sure very indemand and collectable. Stunning watch!!!! 42mm Tudor double dates are nice also, whilst omega churn out another man on the moon watch and limited edition on every watch they release . Tudors sales are through the roof through innovative design and value for money.

As an owner of a modern seamaster myself, I completely agree. I LOVE my seamaster ceramic but can’t stand the way Omega is slowly devaluing itself through overproduction, increased case sizes and more flashy designs. Tudor, on the other hand, has taken a leaf from their older brother’s book and taken the less is more approach. It is most definitely paying off.

Yep, really like the look....but, when you put it next to the Kermit...oh boy...the Sub knocks the Harrods into the shade. Good luck trying to pacify the wife.

To me, thats more of a special edition that the Kermit. Other than the green bezel, whats special about the Kermit? With this there's the green seconds hand, the green bezel, the special case back, AND the green writing on the dial. Very nice watch

Great pickup! I think you should consider a blue/blue Tudor 79190 Submariner. Those wear more comfortable than any 40+mm Tudor and is more collectable.

I am not very sure about your last comment regarding Tudor vs Rolex in the Luxury Segment. By the way, not really a Tudor fan but to answer your question, infact you provided me with the answer. I would say Tudor is not as Luxurious as Rolex but it certainly has all the ingredients to be called Luxury. The heritage is a good factor, use of great materials, an in-house movement. They just stepped up on this model with the new bezel mechanism, ball bearing you mentioned most likely and the new ceramic ball bearing clasp holder. It's affordable Luxury.

@@Gary_S it looks amazing- was worried it would wear too big but I’ve got a Speedmaster and owned a Seiko mm300 so guessing it can’t be too bad. Also happily owned a Corum Bubble chronograph and a Panerai in the OST which are both ridiculously big haha

Tudor back in the 20s were sold in London by DH Evens which was then bought by Harrods having had a long standing trading agreement with them. DH Evens Oxford St store became the House of Frazier store in 2000 and will close in January, being redeveloped as part of the salvage deal. So there is some history between them. Given the price tag of the mid 80s Swatch Harrods edition this could be a good investment.

I don’t blame ya Adrian! Who could resist??? Hope you didn’t get into a LOT of trouble? Well, what can I say, I’ve been there 😉 & it happens to us all!😆. Great watch, great fit and finish! Loved the subtle green bezel! I certainly agree that Tudor is going down the “tool watch “ route. But who knows for sure eh? The bezel is certainly a worthy competitor to the GREEN on the KERMIT bezel. Great vid as always mate!👍🏻. Tc. Best, Hisham.

The lack of a date would put me off I think, no date on something subtle like an explorer or a dress watch would be fine, but for something huge and tooly I think I'd want a date. It is really nicely done with the green text on the dial, the bezel and the seconds hand. It suites the matt black dial with the subtly of the whole thing altogether. I think Id want a date on a watch like this personally though. You are gonna flip this for profit arent you? It aint gonna make it out the house on your wrist! ;)
