Good work. Lovely.
How many did you end up phoning? Might give this a try myself next week.
Very pleased to find this beauty today after a few phone calls and a long drive. Straight out of the delivery ‘coffin’.

Very nice..well may you wear..
Love the photo..
Buying the bracelet for mine soon. Superb watches. Enjoy.
And what better way to celebrate than with a KFC.
well done that man.
I decided this morning that I wanted to try and get one, looked on the dealer locator and ‘phoned the nearest 5 or 6 across the Midlands.
Most said I was welcome to join the waiting list, for up to 6 months, thanks but no thanks!
Finally found one in Shrewsbury on leather, not ideal but better than nothing, and was almost there when I got a call back from the chap at Rudell in Wolverhampton saying he just had this one on bracelet come in and I could have it if I wanted. Cue a detour across to Wolverhampton and a trip to KFC to celebrate!
If anybody is after one, the shop with the BB58 on leather is called ‘Goldsmiths of Shrewsbury’ which interestingly is nothing to do with the national chain but an independent store which took over a Goldsmiths chain store when it closed.

Nice purchase Ed.
Nice watch... awful food ...
Lovely watch👍
Super watch, many congratulations. Enjoy it in good health!
Congrats, seems a great buy at £2.5k compare to its rivals & the way watch RRP's have gone in the past few years.
I bought my s and g on a leather strap but the straps are quite awful it now lives on an Everest rubber band and i love it
I did enquire at my ad for a steel bracelet as i don’t like the two tone bracelet and they checked with tudor and would not supply me one as it was going on the wrong watch !,
Ebay here i come

Done some phoning around myself today and called Rudell too. Have to say, of all the AD's I've spoken to recently, the guy at Rudell's was the nicest, friendliest and most helpful person I've spoken with. Was just interested in chatting watches in general and was really nice. What a nice change.
I've left my details with them for a couple of watches (58 & GMT) and also spoke about a couple of Rolex I'm interested in (one for me, one for the wife's 50th). Even though I've no prior relationship, the helpfulness and feel of being genuine makes me hope they can source something soon for me as I would like to buy from them and build up a relationship
Thanks - I’m actually sat in there now as rushed straight here lol. However, unbelievably I got a call from where I’ve ordered the GMT to do me a deal for both on a bracelet as I pulled up in the car park. So am going with that. I did manage to get down to £2200 for the BB58 if anyone is interested tho but I was upfront and honest about the call I’d had.
Saying that I’ve walked out with a Fastrider Black shield for less than half price. Totally unexpected purchase that!
Thanks for the heads up though.
(Sorry OP for hijacking a little)
Are they getting any easier to find? It took me months on a waiting list at my local AD, I did find one on a leather some weeks before but really wanted the bracelet so held out.
I literally had a double take as I was walking out (had not seen it on way in). Couldn't believe the price. I missed one earlier this year for £2500 on the Alcantara strap so was ecstatic with this. Managed to get another 20 quid off too lol. Not brill but covered fuel. They would have given more on it had I taken the BB58 too (and more on that too). Popped a pic here
As said above, it does seem non bracelet models come in a lot quicker, a few places confirmed this to me today.
I got a call yesterday from the dealer I purchased from, asking if I would mind emailing them a photograph of both sides of my Tudor warranty card.
I think it’s something to do with the fact that it was closing time in the shop when I was there so they forgot to do it but I’m curious as to why they would take photos of the card.
Anyone experienced this before?

Congrats on the pickup! I've had mine for 3 months now and I love it to pieces!

These are a great buy. Well done to the new owners.

I was in RSC earlier today dropping off a watch for service and the service technician commented on the BB58 I was wearing saying how much he liked the look, style and size of the watch.
He went on to say that the movement within the 58 is excellent and as good as any Rolex movement in his /his teams opinion with only the finish on the movement not quite as sharp as a Rolex.
I have to agree as over the past 5 days of timing it against time.is it has not lost or gained a single second.
