Finally got my Tudor pepsi junior after 2 months of waiting time.

AD retailing for about 4.9k, think the steel version is around 5.4k if i’m not mistaken

I have message one of the AD and they said waiting time is at least 4 to 6 months for the steel bracelet model even if I am number 10+ in their waiting list. More ever, they want me to place a deposit to confirm my reservation in their waiting list.

Congrats on your new watch ! What is the damage ? I am still waiting for them to call me for the steel bracelet model which according to the AD is more in demand compare to the leather strap model.

From what I have gathered from the authorized dealer, the watch will be available early next month. There is already more than 10 people in their waiting list for this watch.

when i first saw the watch online, i said "wow" i have to get it. however, couple of weeks later when i saw it online again. my perception changed to - it is not a must get. when i saw it up close and personal. i no longer have the same feeling when i first saw it.


if the rolex 2018 116710BLRO is the one that you want and knowing that it is tough to get it and you switch your attention to this. then i suggest that you give it a second thought or many even more. the last thing you want is what i call "buyer's regret". i would rather keep waiting for the rolex 116710BLRO just like i am still waiting for my 116500.

I guess what I mean is your point 1, in terms of designed and built at that price in general. There are similar design like Rolex Pepsi 2018 model which is "hard to get" due to supply and demand and similar design from Tag Heuer but I prefer mechanical watch.

If that is the case, then I would think it is 'worthy' in your context. Tudor has been a very established and stable watch brand for many years, and their Black Bay models have been one of the more popular models in the past few years, until now. If you really like the watch, I'll say, "Go for it!"

Thank-you for all the input.

I don't quite understand your "is it worth to buy". Do you mean:

- If the watch is well designed and built, and is selling at the right price?
- Or, do you mean you have a good offer for it?
- Or, if the watch will appreciate in value over time?
- Or, if the said model will be discontinued shortly and the value will appreciate abruptly?

"Worth" is perceived very differently from person to person. If you like the watch a lot and will definitely wear it often and proudly, then it is definitely worth every cent. If you're just buying it for the sake of 'investment', and not that you truly like the watch, then the worthiness is close to zero, because no one knows now if the watch will even appreciate in the next 3 years. In addition, it will also depend on how much you are buying it for.

So, in response to your enquiry, it is "worth" if you really like the watch. However, it will not be "worth" (at the moment) if you're banging on it for investment.
