Tudor posts: Here or in the Rolex subforum?
Until recently, it appears that posts on Tudor watches have been made generally in the Rolex subforum. However, I see the Tudor brand becoming perceived more and more indepent from its motherbrand, including the use of its own (and Breitling-sourced) movements. Looking into the Rolex subforum you have to search quite a while until you stumble over posts and pics of Tudor watches. Consequently, I think it would be appropriate to include them here at HM, unless, of course, the number of posts would increase in a degree to justify an own subforum, who knows? What do you think?

Well, I am not sure it is considered as Independent by Rolex. Even if they have their respective booths in Geneva during W and W. We could also say that they are sold in the same Boutiques, if I am correct.
But now if the question is how we perceive Tudor, I would say that it'd deserve a proper forum. We have many fans of the Black Bays and of Vintage Tudor. Enough to justify a dedicated forum. Best, Nicolas
I think it deserves its own sub forum
…they are putting out so many interesting watches in the last few years that they deserve it. I think the current Tudor product is very different to the direction Rolex is moving. Should I?….hmmm ….. very tempted. ...
Yes, I really agree. Its stunning
Ive put my name on an FXD but after that one the silver is a serious candidate for the next one. It needs a better strap but thats the usual fun to play with. I think as an elegant everyday piece. lets see how it goes ;-)
What I meant ...
... was if we should post our Tudor comments and pics here, in Horological Meandering, instead of the Rolex subforum, where the Tudors seem to be lost a bit. If the Tudor traffic justifies an own subforum? I doubt that - now. But with the right motivation...
Let me put it this way, Marcus: if Tudor posts appear on the Rolex forum . . .
. . . there they will remain. If they're posted on HoMe, Bill will get a handle on how popular Tudor is so he'll have a sense of whether its worthwhile pursuing a separate forum. Best, Art
