Yet another Black Bay from Tudor... with ceramic casing. Priced at $6,510, it is getting too close to the Black Bay S&G ($7,180)!

TUDOR BLACK BAY CERAMIC (reference M79210CNU-0001)

Watch looks fine but the strap gap is somehow too wide and awful. Could be due to the size of the case or the positioning of the lug holes is poorly calculated. They could have offered original curved end straps which can cover this flaw better.

serif dial 5513 no date sub around 3.5mil to 3.9mil series would be perfect

Ok, usually 5513s of that age come without its original bracelet .

if you want to wear on bracelet you will need to get an oyster 93150 on 580 endlinks to fit.

i echo yr sentiments on the gap and make the watch look really thick....even for my Tudor GMT, I find this awful when i switch to Nato strap as it makes the watch looks very thick and bulky...

Maybe is Tudor's design...but i love the rolex's thickness, really sits so much comfortable...

The thickness is fine 

i am referring to the gap which shows when the standard strap is on.  

When using Nato strap, can see gaps as nato straps slip under the watch covering all gaps

its due to the position of the lug holes.

Ribena Gold Sub

"ribena Sub" is a termed i coined about 10yrs ago for Subs with tropicalized blue dials that turned purple.

When i listed 2 Ribena Subs for sale some years ago, the term caught on and i see people using it nowadays.

So far none available from my side.   
keep a look out for you.

A good serif dial 5513 head dating 1973 would cost $18k to $20k now for your reference

@Throttle2 Tks Bro, I know it's not easy and that's the price range.
