Launch party of the Tudor Heritage Ranger

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-06:09
And what a party it was! I was fortunate to be invited by The Hour Glass and Tudor Singapore for this party. The venue was set up with scenes of adventures and with models in ranger camouflage outfits. A popular deejay, Jean Danker, was our host for the n...  

What a great report ....

....a really nice expo of the Tudor Heritage Ranger as well as other Tudor offerings. Life is hard, eh, having to do all that review work???!! I haven't had the Ranger on my wrist yet..I know from those that have, it really captures their attention. Once ... 

Life is hard... :)

Indeed! I have 2 more events in the next 4 days to attend! :) but with all these nice watches, I am happy attending. The Ranger is difficult to remove from the wrist I must admit. I wore it for so long that someone in the queue was giving me a "danger sta... 

I deeply appreciate these Heritage watches from Tudor.

I was Lucky to spend some time at Changi Airport, at the Rolex Tudor Boutique and to finally try the Black Bay... I think I will get one, one day. I didn't see the Ranger in the flesh, and I am eagelry waiting to do so, just to be sure, but the first feel... 

Well done Tudor indeed my friend!

For these timepieces at these prices, I must say Tudor did very well indeed cheers robin

Thanks for the Tudor Launch coverage

Thanks Bill!

Tudor seems to be more and more aggressive in Singapore and I think I will get to see more of them - will share here on the forum. cheers robin

If Tudor opts for an integrated end link to cover up

 
 By: PeeCeeBee : July 31st, 2014-08:22
The gap between the lugs, it may look better. Just a personal preference.

Good idea. I agree with you

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-19:55
It will also look better on smaller wrists like mine, instead of some angles where the lugs seem to extend out of the wrist more obviously. I think the original version has an integrated end link on the bracelet, if I am not wrong Good feedback for Tudor ... 

Thanks for the report, Robin.

That Heritage Ranger is compelling. Best, CaliforniaJed

Agree CaliforniaJed

... i am sure you had a good time and enjoyed yourself at the event. anyway look forward to meeting you at another great event real soon :-) stefan

Ah... my horohomo friend... :P

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-19:57
Yes we will see each other very soon. You miss me? :P No worries, we can visit the Tudor boutique next time to try these watches again. The new Heritage Ranger is pretty impressive! cheers robin

Thank you for the coverage, Robin!

Looks like you had a great time! And these heritage Tudor watches are really appealing. The problem for me is that if I would go for one, I know what will happen... The vintage/heritage game would start! ;) Best Blomman

True Blomman.. I have the same concern!

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-19:58
It may well end up like our JLCs! These Tudors are pretty similar. Competitively priced at good quality and also having good history with nice vintage/modern homage versions. Dangerous to start eh? :) Cheers robin

 By: geross : July 31st, 2014-13:03

Thank you. The vintage feel...

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-19:59
is especially apparently in the Black Bay I feel. Hope you enjoyed the report cheers robin

Considering the size of the dial....

 
 By: adam78 : July 31st, 2014-13:38
Surely Tudor could have put "RANGER" on the dial, no?

Hmmm, not sure why they omitted it

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-20:00
Pretty sure the original version had the "Ranger" label. But somehow these days, I prefer my dial to be simplier with less words especially for sporty watches. So this still works for me well :) Good feedback and question though for Tudor to consider Chee... 

You look good with that Ranger, Robin...

I really am liking the Black Bay Blue in the photos; hope to see it sometime in the metal. Great event!

Thank you jporos!

 
 By: jrwong23 (aka watchthebin) : July 31st, 2014-20:01
Glad you like the report and event. The Black Bay Blue is a very handsome watch. Personally I prefer the Black Bay in red bezel as it looks more vintage :) cheers robin
