I don't know whether this constitute as a dumb question but I am gonna ask it anyways.

If I have set my eyes on that particular pair of Rolex / Tudor, if I were to purchase the watch, should I take the one being "displayed" at the rack or asked for a completely new one in the box? laugh.gif

New one, unless the one on the rack has a very nice discount on top or its the last piece and you absolutely need it.

Very nice! This is chocolate, between this and champagne dial, I will go for the champagne dial. That's just me. Went to try it out last week, a heavy watch.

I will usually tell them I'll come back when you have a new one in box then laugh.gif

I like my Rolex pristine. Or in my case, it's a Tudor.

Thanks bro avantasia :-) Not sure what made me sell it the first time, but I'm glad I managed to reacquire it again.

Sifus,
Am interested in Tudor Black Bay Red but can't help to notice the website mentioning the markers & hands are rose gold. Not sure it is plated or coating. My question, is the rose gold here the real thing (14k or 18k) or just gimmick?

For 14k, you want rose gold meh? laugh.gif

Be reasonable, it's likely a finish rather than the real thing.

If it's the real thing, then 14k is a steal XD

QUOTE(Hizami_83 @ Jul 22 2017, 03:48 PM)
Well..thats what I think too. If it is the real thing, Tudor would mention in the press release or webpage it is 14k or 18k. But they didn't. Make me think the "rose gold" here just like those handphone with rose gold finish too.
I tried asking one Tudor SA but he is adamant that the rose gold is real. I'm thinking to ask Tudor official but their website don't have "contact us" or any sort of online contact. Unlike Omega website.

best way to find out... call rolex center... ask them how much is it to replace the dial...the price should be a very good indicator if it's real gold or not.

Tudor is serviced by Rolex as well in Malaysia?

Rolex's service center is based in Menara Deon there right?

Well..I did gave Rolex Service Center a called yesterday. My query was then transferred to a technical guy. He said it is definately REAL plated gold but could not confirm the carat though. Sigh..I guess the watch is not destined for me.

I also found out via online that the Black Bay Blue version is using white gold markers & hands. So for those of you having the Blue & Red be proud since it's a REAL gold there.
Another interesting fact I found out is that the new Black Bay Steel is using silver markers & hands...however it's retail price is slightly more expansive than the Red & Blue. Seems like Tudor give the gold FOC or mark up the Steel price higher.

What to do... I really like the red that's why search high & low about it.. bye.gif
On the Pelagos, I`m not sure. I wish Tudor do like Longines whereby they really declare in detail even the hands & markers are off what material. If it is rose gold plate, they will state the carat.
