Looks good, does the other side of the bracelet also say "Tudor" ?

They were announced in late 2009, so my guess is that it's probably a 2010 model...

No, only the side the wearer sees most... I could do without the "Tudor" on the bracelet, but it doesn't bother me in any way. :)

I quite like the blue one, but the black is more subtle. Hey, look at this, me talking about subtle... :)

i was unsure about that myself originally. But in the metal it's surprisingly subtle. I once owned a Tag Heuer F1 that had "Tag Heuer" engraved on the 9 o'clock side of the case. I found it a bit much, but it was (seriously) 8-10 times larger (in area) than the Tudor on the bracelet link. As I mentioned in another reply, I could just as happily not have it there, but its presence is in no way intrusive.

The bracelet text reminds me I'm not wearing an Omega :lol:

Heading off to bed last night and thought to myself, where did I put my watch? A moment later I realised that I was still wearing it (this Tudor).

To me that puts this in the same comfort ballpark as my Omega SMPs... Pretty damned good for a stainless watch on a bracelet.
