Not to take anything away from it in any way, but why a diver's watch? I get the Aerospace, X-33 / squadrons thing as there's a connection between the watches and the occupation, but here?
Is it a freebie or special purchase for Royal Security personnel?
Bought at full RRP.Quote:

If you browse the internet for the Tudor Royalty protection watch watch you'll get more info.
Surely this should come on a jubilee bracelet.
In Platinum instead of stainless steel?Quote:

That’ is a cool watch and a crazy price that the one on the auction managed !

That’s pretty cool. The price at auction is an eye opener!
The auction was for a full size BB from 2018. Same 'special order' though.
A second 2018 one was auctioned recently and sold for £51k.

Good investment!
Still had to say something though [emoji23]Quote:

I can understand wanting a watch to commemorate something like that - but I much prefer the standard watch tbh. The caseback s hidden away but I don’t like the rose on the dial at all. Lucky we all have differing tastes.

Fabulous and very lucky pick up.
I assume the OP is part of that team, must be great to have a watch to mark that.
