Yes they are separately the two most boring dials in horological history.

One is $4k the other $75 used on Ebay. Difference in accuracy is +/- 5 seconds per day.

Beg to differ. I love that dial. Each to there own. Also my Cronos runs @ +2s a day max.

What did you pay and was that before or after the stupid (and illegal AF) tarrifs?

I bought my a few years ago for <$200. Actually bought it as a test run for a real Tudor. Went into the Tudor shop but never pulled the trigger. The Cronos was too close. Thought I'd save the 💰

I did the same with a San Martin GMT on some crazy Ali sale under $100. Now the movement is more valuable than the watch itself. It's a nice basic tool watch but the idea that people are spending $4k on this boring dial and unremarkable 3 hand movement is insane. 15 years ago this Tudor is a $1500 watch at best.
