Tudor Chronograph: Porsche or Monte Carlo?
7032? Or 7159? I waved between these 2 for so long that I can honestly say that the answer is... Both. The 7032 has a sweeter look, more sensual, maybe, but the 7159 doesn't lack character, either. If I had to get one, and only one, I think that I would g...
Hola Nicolas!! You put it very difficult for us!!...
... can´t decide which one I prefer. These old beauties are so rare down here! I guess best option for me, is to be confident in the Cosmos, and wait to see what luck brings first! I would take the plunge whichever comes! Te envio un abrazo afectuoso! Abe...
Lol! Yes Nicolas! I wish my cosmos will align the stars so well as to lead me to both!
Have a great week en my dear friend! Abrazos, Abel.
Tough one...
Thay are both beautiful, but extremely rare, and extremely expensive. Honestly, I would just admire from afar, and buy the re-edition. Think of it like a choice between buying an old Lotus E-Type, or a new Evora. You are goong to have alot less problems w...
Two is better than one
oops. and there is more. Easy to love hard to refuse when opportunity knocks twice or more.... Best Bill ...
killing you softly my friend
but you raised the point of these two beauties. Under rated and under estimated but not under loved. Best Bill
That is a tough one my friend...
They a two different beasts! The MC is beautifully elegant, the 7159 seems more 'disco'! I love both and agree that probably, the only decent thing to do is add both to the stable! The prices of these two is getting high though. I get a lot of contact thr...
Once I solve the question of which Vintage to get ( or both ),
I will certainly have one eye on the re editions. Some will kill me, here, but i prefer these 2 vintage Tudor Chronos to the Daytona sister... Best, Ross! Nicolas
7159 for me thank you:) I find it less cluttered....
the hands also appeal more to me. Cheers Francois
For me Porsche but you can't go wrong with either or better yet both!
Cheers my friend, ...
Saw a Monte Carlo two weeks ago...
... and it blew me away. I had only ever seen pictures before but to see the watch in person - WOW. I really enjoyed wearing it and liked the way it looked much more than I would have thought. Definitely incredible watches. Thanks for sharing all! V/R Mik...
Tudor Montecarlo vs Porsche
Hello. Just being new to the hobby of (trying) to collect such important watches, a big question arises. Where to get the watches? Chrono24 is a realiable source, albeit a little expensive, Ebay is riskier but maybe all depends on the seller . It seems yo...
Pristine examples of rare watches like these rarely....
Ever hit the market and most sit in collector's private hands. When they do exchange from collector to another collector many times it is private transaction and never listed. The majority of my pristine rarer pieces were wither found this way or I contra...
Hunting is THE pleasure. Visit the different collectors markets,
Ask for advices, do not forgt that paying the price is often better than getting a wrong deal. It takes time, but it is really rewarding. Best, Nicolas
Porsche for me
the design is more "unique", with the specific "homeplate" markers and hands. Also, the dial looks larger, "cleaner". To me, the 7032 is to the 7159 what the Paul Newman is to the Daytona. This message has been edited by DrStrong on 2013-08-02 06:22:07 ...
I tend to agree with you on the interesting comparison you made.
Still, I think that each of them is so different that I would have to go for both! ;) Best, Nicolas.
Not really the point...
...but it reminds me I have this picture in my computer... ...
More conventionals markers, hands,...
...and an overall busier dial, that make the watch look smaller. My .0.02 Euros of course
Another Porsche
I enjoyed the review. Wanted to share my new one, which Ken informed me today is a Porsche! It's the first time I've heard that. I have a 7836 in very nice condition which is stored away. ...
It is not a review, but a very quick view on two nice Chronos.
But thanks for your kind words! Best, Nicolas
That is a real beauty.
If I may ask what are the end pieces on your 7836 band? Thanks Bill
Thanks for the info
There has been various conversations about the end links. I think my 7159 has 282 which fit perfectly. But I think several end fit but they appear to be spread a little to give the best fit as the same end links are also found on submariners which do not ...
