A great holiday watch - decent WR and no one would recognise what it is. They don't even put "Swiss Made" on the dial anymore.

Great choice!
Piers makes some beautiful watches. If they were just 1 or 2mm larger, I would have definitely have bitten the bullet.

Another Tudor to go with my BBR like the black bezel version but also the Pelagos looks nice, this will have to wait until after my treatment is complete and then maybe treat myself.

Definitely a good plan; go for the Pelagos IMHO. Why have two Black Bays?

A great plan - although I would go with two BB's.

Kevin,
You,ll have plenty of time after to buy both the BB Black & Pelagos, so its really about which one first.

The Tagheuer Autavia Rindt reissue is looking quite appealing.
