Tudor black bay gmt reference: M79830rb-0001

I departed via Athens Airport and the custom documentation and refund via Global Blue tax Refund. Whole process was less than 10 minutes. Please note that cash refund is limited to €130 and below. U need to select other currency to claim the full amount or refund via credit card (need to wait 5 days to be credited back).

Hope this helps

Good to know only took you 10min, included queuing time?
10min is almost negligible.
have read about long queuing time, which makes me contemplating whether want to take the risk to buy.
(Referring to Italy airpirt, so might differ)

Congrats on your new watch but the price a bit expensive after converting to Singapore dollars around S$6053.00? Local RRP is S$5328.00.

I think Tudor watch ADs also not many. Other than The Hour Glass (THG) and Cortina, we have ...

- Watches of Switzerland (WOS) (now under THG);
- Tai Hong Hung (Chinatown);
- Kee Hing Hung (Chinatown);
- All Watches; and
- Sincere Fine Watches.

Hint : You miss out 1 more AD located in the west.

To add on and to clarify matter, this deposit from this AD is for Tudor watch only and this AD is not the 2 big AD starting with "Hxxx Gxxxx" or "Cxxxxxx". There are quite a number of AD for Tudor watch unlike Rolex watch. The 2 big AD that I have approached only allowed me to register my interest in that watch which I believe I am at the bottom of their list as I am not their "VIP" customer. I have also registered my interest with the new 2018 Rolex pepsi with the 2 big AD but I doubt I will get any call from them that my watch has arrived.

The AD request me to put a deposit to commit my reservation as they will give priority to those queuing customers who has placed deposit with them. Initially was told the waiting time is about 4 to 6 months when I placed the deposit but end up getting the watch in 2 months after pacing the deposit.

nice! what's the damage?

Recommended retail price at $5328.00 for steel bracelet model. No discount given.

Oh? I'm surprised an AD would request for a deposit ... most I know did not ask for, and even refused to accept deposits for watches, especially watches that are more popular. Some ADs used to do that mainly for watches that were not popular and difficult to sell in a short time. Reason why, because if the customer changes his/her mind, then the AD would be stuck with the watch.

Anyway, enjoy the new experience

Thank you.
