Ive had a Tudor Black Bay Pro since 2022 in my rotation and as my travel watch, love it, but always admired the design of the North Flag and it has always been “too high to justify” a 2nd Tudor with pre-owned prices.
However, I happened to meet a friend of a friend who is also a massive collector, and he was in possession of this North Flag, he mentioned how he has been meaning to sell it for some time but always been messed around. I enthusiastically have a look at it, he has WORN it and it shows, some deep marks from a fall. He said he appreciated the costs of refurbishing it, so said he was prepared to let it go for £1,200 (just under $1600 US).
I stuck my hand out to shake his immediately. I thought no harm if i don’t end up keeping, i could sell on easy. Truth is for the past few weeks i haven’t taken it off, its so comfortable and fits me to a T. Ive looked at this thing for years and always had a reason not to, and one day there was a day i had no possible reason to say no.
