Have you seen this?

Hmmm...COSC, 70h pr, in-house movement...

"No word yet on the pricing at this point but we will know more next week. Having said that, it is safe to say that the North Flag will cost more than current Tudor sport watches because of the movement but a bit less than Rolex watches. So I am guessing somewhere in the $5,000 - $6,000 range that will still make them a good value for a handsome adventure-style timepiece."
I think a Tudor has to be more than 'a bit' less than a Rolex.

How interesting! My bank balance is already quivering. I'll be watching with even more interest to see if Tudor brings out some other new lines, as the article seems to allude.

Paying a premium for long PRs on autos seem kinda pointless (unless you have *exactly* the right rotation pattern), and I dislike an indicator on the dial. Silicon balance is nice of course, as is cosc. What grade 2892s does Tudor use in the black bay?

Have to say that I still don't really see the need for PRs, especially on a watch with a 70h reserve

I'm beginning to feel the opposite: I can't see the point of an auto that *doesn't* have a PR.
-Hi, I'm an auto and I'm running *smug expression*
-Great, for how much longer?
-Woudn't you like to know?! *even yet more smug expression*
But, like Geoff, not keen on them on the dial, and think they're better safely out of harm's way on the back

I didn't even know they put them on the back!
