Well, they get a thumbs down from me. Then again I'm definitely not in the target demographic and the marketing of these watches seems geared up to a younger more trendy cash-ready audience. I suppose I shouldn't pre-judge them because I haven't seen them in the flesh, but they don't appeal to me. I'm sure Tudor will be greatly relieved to know this :)

Those new ones do nothing for me I'm afraid. I have never been a Tudor fan; much less so now.

Whilst in Southampton today I spent some time window shopping in Parkhouse, one of my favourite shops, being the Rolex AD that I entrusted to oversee the servicing of my Submariner through RSC.

They have virtually the entire range of Tudors including the blue Pelagos, the North Flag, the Fast Riders (green and red), the Black Bays, the Ranger etc etc. I have to say that I quite liked the green Fast Rider although I wouldn't buy it.

They had however a North Flag on leather and I was amazed to see that it had the cut out for a strap rather like the C2/C20. I don't know if this would be a problem in sourcing after market straps for it.

Lovely watch though.

The old Fastrider was not bad. The 2015 Fastriders are fugly, brightly coloured C7 clones.
