Tudor Pelagos 39mm Review: The Perfect Dive Watch for Professionals and Enthusiasts
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 16 авг 2024
- The Tudor Pelagos 39 has been out a short time and its created quite the stir in the industry, offering a titanium diver that is at a much more wearable size in the 39mm case and 40mm bezel. It is light, comfortable and comes with Tudor's T-fit clasp. It sounds like the culmination of all their best products from the Black Bay Pro, the Black bay 58, and the Tudor Pelagos Original line. What could be against it? There's conversation about that in the video including the sunburst bezel and dial.
Some answers for some questions:
1. Yes I’m on Instagram @wrist_swap
2. Wrist size 6.75” or 170cm
3. The clasp is 47mm long and 18mm wide the links leave the backend a bit early and it’s curved, so I don’t notice the length
4. T fit adjustment allows 7mm of adjustment

Great video. Still can’t decide whether to buy this one or re-purchase an LHD. Won’t have room for both, so I’m agonizing over this one!
170cm thats one thick wrist boi
you got a thick one me lad, wifey must luv it
17,2 cm :)
I think it’s a master stroke. It’s not a smaller Pelagos. It’s almost a new line in its own right. The size and aesthetic will appeal to many. I love it. Nice video.
Thanks! Agreed on all accounts
So true - to me, it's kind of lifeless. It's not a smaller Pelagos. Looks don't make it a Pelagos. The 39 is not toolish or professional. It's more of marketing.
As a girl, the marketing really worked for me. Tudor does a great job of making watches that fit us while still keeping the tool, diver, active style. That nod to me on vacation in a dress or at the pool, yeah that's how I'll use it.
Glad to hear it! It’s a great watch and clearly Tudor knows what they’re doing
I think that’s exactly it, a lot of people are confused by the marketing, but I personally saw them as saying “look, men and women can wear this, it’s not too large or ungainly for smaller wrists”.
I think it’s smart from Tudor, we really need to move away from men’s/women’s, and concentrate on just buying what we like.
As anyone who knows watches well enough, the marketing isn’t made for us. We know it’s a 39mm titanium diver, and we know an approximation of how it’ll look and feel on wrist.
The Pelagos 39 is the only watch that I didn’t have to think long before buying it. I went to the AD, put it on my wrist … game over. Simply stunning, impossibly legible dial, incredibly light and wearable. It’s a master stroke.
Just the week before I had tried on all variations of the BB58 (including the 925) but none of them convinced me. The moment I put on the P39 I liked it right away.
I love the light weight, sits better on the wrist and doesn’t fall off the wrist, also the satin finish of the bezel, far better than super shiny and better than the matt finish, love it👍
Agreed! It’s a nice design for sure!
Great review. I have a 7 3/4 wrist, I bought a Pelagius 39 and absolutely love it.
You hit it right on the head. The watch is far closer to the Rolex mission than modern rolexes. It hearkens back to the serious Rolexes from the 1960's thru the early 90's. I wore a 1980's Rolex REF6263 for 30 years and this watch brings that to mind, with the size and weight of the classic sports watches. Nothing is ostentatious about the Tudor, and you are 100% correct on the silly WR stats. I've never met a pro diver who even wears a watch. They all have proprietary dive computers. But for burly, overweight status-ers, they have something to argue at the poolside bar. This Pelagos 39mm is a keeper.
I’ve watched a lot of videos on the new Pelagos 39 and this is one of the best by far. Great in-depth review.
Appreciate that!
Great video and review. I appreciate the thorough content and especially pro/con review. I have seen quite a bit of people say that this Pelagos 39 is a large departure from the original, but you're spot on to point out that the FXD started that trend towards a thinner, no date and more sleek design. I can't wait to get this watch.
Appreciate it! Hopefully it comes in soon!
Great review of a great tool watch. I like the bezel a lot - in certain light, it appears to almost be a ghost bezel. Very cool. I love the red text, the lightness, the no date, the size. This is the Tudor Sub of 2022 and will be a grand slam home run for Tudor.
Agreed it will sell like hotcakes!
+1 on the ghost bezel comment. My AD got one in and I was able to try it on. The ghost effect (along with the lightness) was one of the first details to jump out at me. Along the lines of the red text, it felt like a bit of a nod to vintage pieces and to the enthusiast community. I love it.
love this! Made a similar video at my other RUclips channel talking about the things that people need to know before they buy a pelagos. I really love mine! And I'm glad that you love yours
Nice! It’s certainly going to get a lot of coverage given how it’s designed. Enjoy yours!
Thanks for the video! I love that you addressed some of the concerns that are floating around which makes this review different than all the others. I hope your channel grows and that we get to see more content from you
Appreciate it! Glad it was informative!
I’m on the waitlist! I think this is as close as Tudor will get to a snowflake submariner. Watch collectors have been pleading for a smaller/thinner Pelagos and when Tudor delivers they still aren’t happy-crazy! Great review btw! Best regards
Thanks! Yeah I agree it is as close as they’ll get unless something wild changes. We’re a picky bunch that’s for sure!
The best video on this watch so far on YT. Thank you for the great work!!
Appreciate you saying that!
Cool review, the new Pelagos is a great watch. The only thing you got completely wrong is water resistance. You need to do more reading so that you understand watch depth ratings better. 200m on the dial doesn't mean you can dive with it down to 200 meters, not even close. It's just a static water pressure the watch can handle.
I could not agree more, and I am actually surprised that almost no one gets the real meaning of water resistance. In the video scenario even a breitling navitimer could handle a swimming pool day, which is untrue and could take someone to a disaster. But nice vid!
Water resistance is a tricky business of static pressure and on small batches of watches rather than each watch. The dynamic pressure change from moving is actually minimal and the gasket aging and temperature in the water are larger factors. Either way, it is capable enough for all recreational diving. I've used 100M watches diving and been perfectly fine. The ISO Rated Diver's 200M gives more assurance, but this does just fine for all I'll use it for.
Very good, helpful perspective on the value of good fit. It’s an absolute game changer. That said, for people habitually wearing larger cases, it might require a kind of recalibration of sensibility and expectations. A larger watch very much is designed around impact. Watches, as objects, when they get down to around 40mm and smaller, they simply take on better visual balance and you can really wrap your eyes around them.
And then there’s wearability. They are much more comfortable. On social media forums, with people posting wrist shots, there’s a ton of people who would be well served to really question why they feel a need for such large watches. I know my understanding of fit has evolved simply because I questioned it. I grew bored with larger watches for the most part, there are exceptions, but as one collects, if your tastes don’t evolve and refine over time, I’m not sure there’s much point to it.
This was a very good revue, there’s good reasoning behind it. Cheers.
I agree. Well said on all accounts. Thanks!
I love the Pelagos. Old model, new model, it doesn’t matter. One day I will buy one for me.
Don't blame you! Good luck!
Full disclosure - I've just bought this watch and had it for just under a week. I have to say, this video is spot on - the only thing missing is the clasp is probably longer than most people think (about the size of the watch head). It doesn't bother me but you do want to get it sized properly - after that it's a none issue. After all the Omega Seamaster 300m doesn't have a tiny clasp!
The marketing point is really well made - I've seen other reviews just hate it. However, I completely get why - if you go "dive" then you're up against the larger pelagos (I used to won the LHD version) and it would suffer in comparison. I suspect Tudor is not only learning about watchmaking from it's bigger brother Rolex, but also marketing and audience segmentation.
Oh and this is the first video I have ever seen which explains the depths of diving and how 200m is more than enough. Kudos!
The dial/bezel sunbursts just add depth with the dial sunburst being hugely subtle. You find yourself looking at the time just to marvel at the cleverness. I also like the fact the case is 39 but the bezel is 40 - wearing really well but not losing presence.
What isn't mentioned is dial width - I also have a 41mm BB GMT (which I adore!!). They both pretty much have the same dial size - meaning good legibility
The big thing which stood out to me - this IS a tool watch. Rolex's are essentially jewellery now with screaming shiny designs. This is the other fork in the road, it feels like a sliding doors moment where this is what a sub "could've been". I look at it and think it's the love child of a Sinn u50 (strong dial design) and Rolex Sub - and that's no bad thing. I also look at it and know in my heart, I don't want a sub.
It's a brilliant watch - VERY light and that does take a few days to get used to. Once you're over that then your way.
If only some so called watch channels on here calling themselves "experts" would review the watch as in depth as you have with your review, really good stuff, hope your channel grows, along with Timeless Watch Channel and Paul Thorpe, I now have three channels I watch regularly....
Appreciate you saying that. I’m glad I could be helpful!
Best and most fair review of this watch I have seen. So many people are moaning about the marketing or that it is not a toolwatch etc, but then you just put a diagram of the depths people actually are allowed to dive to and it kind of ruins their arguments for more water resistance.
this has a good goldilocks size, no date, titanium + comes with a nice rubber strap, this is an absolute homerun for Tudor especially after the not so interesting Ranger release.
Yeah agreed on all fronts. I'll have a water resistance video coming soon that goes more in depth than this one!
Finally someone who describes diving depths. I always roll my eyes when watch guys talk about 200m not being enough.
I’ll have a full video explaining water resistance of modern watches!
Best review for the Pelagos 39 on RUclips! And yes I loved the long and detailed video, good job! Now should I trade in my BB58 for this one? I can’t justify owning two divers from the same brand haha
That’s a tough one! I love the BB58. It’s entirely an aesthetic choice of one over the other. You’d have to hold them side by side
I thought about that, too. Decided to keep both of them for a few reasons: 1. the main difference between BB58 and Pelagos 39 is the material: SS vs Ti and I don't really have a Ti watch at all and wish that Tudor be my first one to acquire Ti. 2. I looked into many other currently available Ti watches and nothing else appealed to me the way Tudor did in terms of its esthetics and wearability at 39/40mm. 3. No other brand has the resale value retention as much as Tudor does especially with the way Tudor company does not just mass produce their products like Tag/Longines/Omega. They are employing its older brother Rolex sales tactics Conclusion:. So I get to keep them and enjoy them until I really want to let one of them go or just keep adding on Tudors onto my collection. PS. I know this one guy who loved BB58 so much, he has the original black BB58 and the blue 58. And then there are guys who are only into Omega moon watches as well.
Thank you for the fairest review I have seen thus far of the Pelagos 39, along with acknowledging and addressing people’s feelings/perceptions of Tudor. (side note 2 exta props for rocking a SRAM trucker hat)
Appreciate it! I try to as best I can. Haha thanks!
Really solid review, the vids are getting better and better, keep going, man. Would I prefer a matte bezel with the 3D bezel on this 39? Yes. But it is also rare for a watch brand, especially a heritage brand, to get so many things right. I don't mind the 21 lugs, 22 nato or leather straps will work fine. I actually like the proportions of thinner lugs with a more integrated bracelet that the 21mm lugs afford. Honestly, the bracelet and rubber strap work so well it is hard to complain about the lug width. Can't wait to get it on wrist
Thanks! Appreciate the kind words. Same on my account, but it gives a different appeal, which is nice. Hopefully you can check it out soon!
Well rounded review, I enjoyed it. I particularly liked that you explained, using your own experience, how the decrease in water resistance is actually *not* a problem. And last but not least... *kudos for using the metric system !*
This watch is better than the bb58 .it has the sun rays dial and makes it look more rich .I'm getting one for sure.
By a mile, this is the best review of this watch I've seen. Thank you.
Thanks!
This watch has everything that I love. Something in particular that I love on this watch is the flat PIP. I have a Rolex GMTII (116710). The Pelagius 39 has everything that I wish my Rolex had. Ironically I cracked my PIP within the first month of owning the watch. It is barely noticeable, but pretty funny since all vintage Rolex watches are missing or shattered. I am definitely a fan of this Pelagius 39 and plan on picking it up soon. Thanks for the great review!!
Great review; I like the approach you took here. Thanks for posting this! You’ve got a new subscriber.
I also appreciate your comparison of 80/90s Rolex to contemporary Rolex. It’s the way I feel and part of the reason I’m so attracted to the Pelagos 39 as well. I was able to try on the P39 at my AD and the “wearability” is pretty amazing.
Hey Harrison, great content and I particularly enjoyed this video thanks. I owned a Sub for 20 years, sold it, regretted it and now I want to replace it. The obvious place to look was Rolex but Ive been toying with a tudor for a while and after getting a 58 I was really impressed except for the lack of adjustment on the bracelet. I think the Pelly 39 could be the replacement Ive been looking for so your video really helped thank you.
Hey glad I could help! Good luck on your decision!
Just got the unexpected call about this watch and I've got my very first Tudor now. I'm soooo happy with it!
Very nice! Enjoy! It's a beauty
@@HarrisonElmore thanks! I must say it looks way better in person. Did you have it where the bezel would be able to push in and out between 50min - 10min marker on the bezel? Is it because you need to push down a little to rotate it?
@@Alex_Fung I'm not sure what you mean by being able to push in and out, but I only have the capacity to push the bezel down, albeit a fraction of a millimeter to get the bezel to rotate.
Really great video. The pelagos39 certainly won’t be for everyone, but I agree with you, it’s stunning, and the size is just right. The only issue I see is the lug width, but being that my other tudors stay on the bracelet 99% of the time, I imagine that would as well. Thanks for sharing your experience with it and keep up the great work.
I totally agree! Thanks!
Best Pelagos 39 review on RUclips. Period.
Appreciate the kind words!
Well said. Was so bored of people trying to downgrade the 39 because they own a 42. Its a matter of wrist size for some, they cant wear the 42, its huge, thick watch on steroids. 39 isnt really a 39, due to bezel size, it is technically a 40, and wears like a 40 which is the optimum size for most of people. I own one and it was love at first sight in the AD. Was concerned about the titanium but it wears and feels great. People are complaining about the sunburst bezel but if they spend some time with the watch would see that its sunburst only under the sun. Under the shadow its more matte, and plays with the surrounding lights really nicely. A perfect under the radar, modern watch with a super precise and reliable caliber. Truly a versatile watch.
Agreed on all accounts. Felt the same way when I got it
Just discovered your channel. Superb content thank you, right up my street! As a Rolex lover and collector I really admire this new Pelagos, and the Tudor brand.
I have tried this watch on at my preferred AD and it is superb… so it’s now on order.
Glad RUclips suggested your channel, I’m now a subscriber.
Best wishes,
Steve
👍🇬🇧
Hey welcome aboard! Hopefully yours comes in soon to enjoy!
This was a really helpful review, thank you. It’s such a beautiful watch
Glad it was helpful!
This is the best review I've seen of the new Pelagos. Very thoughtful and thorough critique.
Thanks appreciate it!
😂
AMAZING review. Best Pelagos 39 content on RUclips. No joke.
Appreciate the kind words!
Excellent discussion of the watch. Thank you for your diligence 👍
Great review again. You're quickly becoming my trusted opinion on watches, we have a lot of overlaps...and save me having to fork out for all these pieces.
Hahaha hopefully I can be helpful in that regard. This channel certainly isn’t helping me save money!
This is a home run for Tudor. However aesthetically it looks very similar to the Seiko SPB143 which IMO looks better and has a real sunburst dial. There is no point doing a sunburst dial if you can't even see it...Other than that it's a shame Tudor never released a steel version at the same time. A steel version with some tastefully done polishing or just all brushed would have a broader appeal, which I thought is what Tudor was going for. But overall it's a hit!
Fair points! I think if the sunburst dial was more accentuated, I’d agree with the steel and polished comment!
Just got the call to pick mine up this weekend! 🎉. Brilliant video mate!
Hope you enjoy it! I love mine
Great video. I love the way you analyse watches like a devil on one shoulder whispering in my ear quietly telling me to get one. You've addressed many arguments for overcoming my objections to buy one. I still think this is more a Black Bay with a few design upgrades and a snowflake dial rather than a genuine Pelagos. But I do think it is a cool watch and I think you've influenced me to want one. Although I use to own the 42mm Pelagos and I now own the BB58 and 40mm pre-ceramic Rolex Sea-Dweller as well as a few Subs, I thought my itch for dive watches was scratched but now I think I will have to add this new Pelagos to my collection as I don't have a titanium dive watch. I hate to love Tudor. As quoted in the movie Godfather III, Just when I thought I was out, they pull me back in!
Hahaha great quote. Yes that's a lot of divers, but if you've got a thing you like, then keep at it! I'm glad I could be the bad influence
I always look forward to your content. Great video. I think Tudor did well here and the blue release will be OG matte blue, not sunburst, and it will address the haters directly. What noobs don’t realize is that real matte black was not going to work, it’s too dull and would turn almost gray.
Appreciate you saying that. I think more colors are certainly coming
Greatest quality content of all the reviews I’ve seen
Becoming quickly one of my fav channel
Thanks mate for your efforts
Thanks appreciate it!
I have 2 Tudor’s - GMT and P01,both excellent. I have titanium watch from a micro brand I also like and the weight is great.Tudor is a true value - at retail this is some value. Thanks for a good review
Agreed! Enjoy yours!
I’ve tried it on, and I’m getting one. I completely agree with your review and I think it will be possible to find a 21mm nato.
I was on the waiting list for a sub, but for me, this one fits me better
Ditto and ditto. I dropped the order on the sub. Hopefully it comes in soon!
I own a 124060 and can see myself still picking up one of these.
best p39 review i ve ever watched. you nailed it.
Glad to hear it! Thanks for the kind words!
Dudes channel is legit 👍🏻
Appreciate it!
The best review for this watch I've seen. I've seen a lot
Appreciate that!
Have you forgotten to mention weak lume on the hands in the "The Points Against The Pelagos 39" or am I missing something?
Great video. If I didn’t already have a black diver, this would be great. The size, the titianuim, the T Fit and Extension and no cutout rehault. Can’t wait to see other colour variants.
I'm sure they're coming if we know anything about Tudor
Great video! Love this watch and had no regret for buying it a few weeks ago.
Thanks! Enjoy!
Nice looking watch! This grey makes a nice move from the Datejust 41 dark Rhodium. If you don't need to dive but want to be able to go into the water, the Nomos Reference 782 (blue dial, oyster-style bracelet) is also super. Full disclosure: that has become my daily driver.
Awesome video, really well paced and really good length
Thanks!
The consideration of the various points of contention was pleasantly dispassionate. And seeing as you asked…
I agree entirely that the wrangling about depth ratings - even beyond 100M - is practically ridiculous.
Having an aesthetic or non functional taste/preference is so much of what the watch hobby is about, but having taste/personal preference about technical elements is an invitation to get lost in the intellectual weeds.
Glad to hear it! Agreed
Completely agree, so many of the reviews were focused so much on the launch video showing it as a lifestyle watch so that meant it wasn't a true dive watch anymore... how many people that own a diving style watch actually dive? Not many... so they made a smart decision making a watch that's capable of diving with... but giving it a much broader appeal. I dive and I would wear this as a back up to my computer
Yeah they are in the business of making money at the end of the day, not inspiring us all unfortunately!
Awesome review. Very useful and waiting anxiously for the call.
Thanks! Good luck!
Congrats on getting this one! I really enjoyed the vid!
Thanks man!
Excellent review with good arguments for buying or not buying the watcht.
Top.
Thanks!
I agree 100%!
Great review! Thanx! Love the watch.
Nailed it on the head sir! Tudor just keeps knocking it out of the park.
They’re certainly focusing on watches that will undoubtedly be popular!
What an excellent review, you do such a good job. My only minor nitpick with the watch is the lug width, and even that is not much of an issue, otherwise this watch to me is a masterpiece, I like it better than the no date sub
I appreciate you saying that. It’s certainly a strong competitor!
Great review man!! Great watch as well. I have a 5 digit sub and a BB58 and this one reminds me of both. That being said there is no way anyone can go wrong purchasing this rendition of the Pelagos. It looks like the 5 digit dimension wise with the over hang bezel and the case more than likely closer to that sweet spot of 39mm. Love Tudor and Rolex. Specifically Tudor models today and Rolex models from the 90s and early 2000s. Once again great review!
Thanks! We share an interest in those pieces then!
Thoughts on the fact that the hands do not glow is brightly as the indices with the lume?
Great video, and I completely agree! I think the Ranger is the modern explorer, too! Bravo!
Thanks! 👍
Nice video! People often say P39 is a homage to SubC but really, it is a homage of Seiko SPB143 🙃
Oh hot take!
😅 yeah the design choices do look similar to the spb143. Maybe they did borrow some ideas from each other
I like that the bezel mimics a ghost bezel under certain lighting. I’m patient and can wait, still waiting on a 124270. Damn good review btw.
I agree. I like that aspect too. 124270 is a nice watch. Hopefully it comes soon. Thanks!
Finally, a fair, level headed, review!
Glad to hear it came across that way!
What if a Rolex is just an expensive Tudor. Just a thought…😂😉
Mind blown!!
Very good video, I have the new Pelagos also, absolutely stunning watch. 39mm pretty much perfect on my 7 inch wrist. Have not tried strap change as yet but will in the future I’m sure.
Thanks! It’s a great watch. Enjoy!
I love this watch too…. So much infact I ordered one from my AD.
I agree with your points in this video. Great review.
200m is way more than enough.
Hopefully it comes in soon! Enjoy!
Agree with your take. I'd like add pelagos 39 into the collection too
Good luck! Hopefully we all get one that want one
The comparison to older "tool" watch Submariners is spot on for me. The reason I'd never own a modern Submariner (aside from price and availability) is that it is no longer a "tool" watch, though it could be argued it could make you look like a "tool". I'm excited to see this watch in person and I'm already selling on some of my less worn watches to make room and some $$$$ so my wife doesn't kill me ;)
Haha been there! Gotta justify the price. Just moving money from one thing to another right?
I would like to see FXD with less scales on the bezel like Pelagos
Great review!
But 200m doesnt mean you can go 200m.
The watch can withstand a pressure of 20 bar. This is equivalent to a hypothetical 200-meter water column bearing down on one square centimeter. The watch can be kept on while diving in moderately deep water.
I'll have a video about water pressure soon!
There are no negatives on this watch. Negative reviews get more likes... Great vid
Thanks!
LOL. Hard to disagree. The "reviews" have turned into opinion based updates.
I mean, I wish the P39 had a date window and the amazing OG Pelagos clasp, but I don't think I could call it a negative.
It's just different. You can't please everyone and EVERYONE has an opinion.
Hate it or love it. The P39 is a slam dunk, no doubt about it!
I really appreciate your honest videos. I’ve owned 3 Rolex watches (my first being the polar dial explorer 16570)…I get why people might hate this watch and it might be exactly why I love it- completely capable tool watch you can wear with anything. Love the review!!
Agree it’s a heck of a watch. Thanks! Enjoy yours!
Congrats on the watch looks amazing love how the bezel looks grayish with the light,me personally as i have bb58 black I’m here waiting for the blue version of this…
I don't imagine you'll have to wait long!
The one thing that made me sell my 42mm Pelagos was the Titanium itself being very, very prone to scratches. I take care of my watches but despite all my efforts, there were new scratches almost daily . I couldn't deal with that so I sold it. Too bad this one would be the same. I'll just stick to my 41mm Sub then.
Hey that's a fair point! I'll have to see how it ages
That's what's holding me back from this watch. Brushed SS would've been a nicer choice.
Great video! Thanks for putting it together
Thanks! Anytime!
Nice work - fist Watch channel I subscribed to in a while
Glad to hear it! Thanks!
Great review.
Very good review. Keep up the good work
Thanks, will do!
Refreshingly straight, no shit review. Totally agree, Thanks.
Appreciate it!
I need some takes on this. I currently own BB58 blue dial and I love it. Anyways, I was contemplating replacing it with OG Pelagos blue dial. I love the new Pelagos 39, but don't want the black dial. IF they release the blue dial, do I switch it? Gawd, I'm such a Tudor fanboy now...
Hahah aren't we all? It depends. If sentiment isn't a part of it, then maybe if you're looking for more of a muted appeal. The BB58 will always be a better fit for its more stylish and reflective nature. The Pelagos is more of the muted, (boring in some ways) cousin.
Absolutely a great looking watch, on paper, great specs.......don't know why Tudor hates adding date complications? I get it, some people like no date. I really like a date function. I would have had several Tudor watches by now if they added a date complication (without changing elements of the designs) to some of their watches. They come out with this EXACT watch with a date, I'll be the first in line.
The weight is the second reason why I will buy one.
Agreed it was a huge selling point for me
I agree with everything you said. Great review, honest and balanced.
Appreciate it!
New subscriber here. Trying to decide between this and the 925... Totally different watches but I can only afford one. Actually I can't justify either so I'm just waiting for the right time if there is such a thing.
Great video bro! Subscribed to the channel 👊😊
Great video! Thanks for the in depth review, love the long review style. What's your wrist size? That's something that would be good to know in your reviews...
Great point! It’s hard to remember everything to include. 6.75” or 170cm
I really like this watch and I'm trying to get one but Tudor is playing the Rolex game so it's been tough finding one at retail.
Nice Video 👌 I think I’m gonna wait for the blue one
I’m sure it’ll be out soon!
Great review, thanks. Agree re the weird marketing. But there is nevertheless something appealing about this watch. Tried on the 42mm Pelagos with the rubber strap at the NY Tudor boutique recently. Amazing watch but just too big for my 17cm wrist. Am thinking the 39mm Pelagos on a rubber strap could be perfect. If only I hadn’t bought the boutique edition bronze BB58 while I was there…😁
Brilliant Video!
Thanks!
Thanks for the review! Had it on my wrist this week, sadly I had to pass - it just didn't feel like it had the character I was looking for. It felt beautiful, tool-like, but I couldn't put my finger on it - it's almost the "perfect" watch and I want something a bit different. My eye is on the BB 925 silver...has that personal charisma
Fair enough! It's all about personal taste. The 925 is a solid piece!
Great review! Thanks…!
Thanks for watching!
Very nice for smaller wrists
Agreed!
