It confirms what I already knew.

It's a great watch but not for 99% of the watch buying population.

You need to be able to think outside of the box and be a little different.

Probably why I love mine.

If I was ever to acquire a Tudor this would be it - definitive.

Agree on all points. It’s my most worn watch and most accurate.

Also put mine back on the bracelet last week, my only gripe is how small and fiddly Tudor/Rolex springbars are :(

Could have been worse Tim. :)

I know “someone” who having removed the bracelet decided to try the NF with the rubber strap from his Pelagos. It went on easy enough, but had to be cut slightly to remove it. :shock:

I won’t make that mistake again.

Bought mine in August 2015. Certainly no thoughts of selling. :D

I'd agree with the sentiments about this watch. Nicely restrained but still with strong design elements. I'd be happy to own one.

Not sure I agree with that; it always seems to be held in high esteem when mentioned on this and other forums. I think it's great and would definitely own one if it was a touch smaller (or my wrists were a touch bigger).

That's good to hear.

Here's a comparison size wise between the Submariner and North Flag, both 40mm.

It is quite noticeable when together isn't it.

Certainly one of my favourites. Well made, sporty, goes with anything.
