    FXD for me. It’s so different from anything else that I own. It wears like my sea dweller 43, but lighter and slimmer. And most of my watches are on bracelets, so it’s nice to have something different. It’s a great everyday watch for the outdoorsy adventurous type of person. It’s my first tudor and absolutely love it.

    PELICAN!!!!!!
    Well done for getting all three and well done for Hightower for lending the Pelican in! When I had this and my 58 up together it cemented the fact I can’t get on with titanium light watches! I need to feel some sort of heft on my wrist! I’ve got GShocks for lightweightedness! I think the P39 is the closest thing to Tudor sub what with the crown guards and bezel gripage! They won’t make a stainless steel version of it as that’s what separates it from the current Submariner. Unless it’s blue! But it’ll be blue in titanium guaranteed!!!!! Great colourful show loved it!

    That is actually almost the decision I had a few months ago. It was a std 42m Pelagos, any BB58 and the Pelagos 39 wait list. I very much like the warmth and charm of the black/gilt BB58 but I got the Pelagos 39 late last year and it’s not left my wrist since - It’s very much more ‘me’ but I don’t think it’s possible to get it wrong in the Tudor 58/Pelagos/BB Pro lines. They’re all stunning.

    In my opinion the BB 58 clasp is awesome because the size is modest compared to bracelets (tudor, rolex) with glidelock/t-fit and thus does not bash around. I do like the look of the rivets aswell.

    The FXD is my favorite here. A combination I think of genuine military kudos, unusual bi-directional count-down timer bezel and those rad fixed spring bars. And it looked proportional enough on your husband’s 6.5” wrist. So would look more than fine on my 7” one 😁 the BB58 in its original black and gilt livery was my favorite dive watch for years too. Not so much anymore though. And this blue variant is the dullest of the range IMHO…sorry 😬 as for its bracelet, I’m not keen on it either. I would prefer the references that come on the leather or nylon straps.

    Another excellent video. Well done. I let go of my BB58 Blue when I got my FXD 21 (2 blue dives watches seemed redundant.) And let go of my Rolex 14060, when I got the Pelagos 39. Haven't regretted it a bit. The FXD and P39 are, IMHO, the ultimate 2 watch collection- they complement each other because they're two very different watches: bracelet/strap, blue/black, 42/40mm. The only downside is trying to decide which one to wear in the morning ;) BTW, if anyone basing their decision on lume alone, the FXD wins hands down. The lume on the P39 is good too, but the FXD is practically a spotlight at night.

    I love your enthusiasm in what you do. It’s what brings me back to your videos. They are a joy to watch. I’ve been doing my research and was originally set on a black bay 58, I felt it fit my 7.5inch wrist best, but I was disappointed with the rivet bracelet and hard to grip aluminum bezel. The pelagos 39 seems to be the answer for me, with the only things that might steer me away is that I think the bb58 can be dressed up and be worn with a suit much easier than the pelagos. I also like the smaller clasp on the 58, but I really don’t know how bad the larger clasp on the pelagos will fit until I get both on my wrist and try them out. Thanks for videos, look forward to more and more in the future

    I prefer the pelagos look, the square markers and blue color is where they are distinct from Rolex. I am positive Tudor will make a P39 in Blue, and that historically is THE color for a Tudor as well. The P39 will be the de facto Oyster Prince Submariner of modern times. Having said that, just loooove the FXD and its purpuseful look. I have large wrists and can pull off either watch. Trying to make up my mind,and decide what would fit the collection better. I am on a smaller watch phase, and my brain says P39, but the FXD has my heart.

    My fave is the P39. And I have owned mine for nearly a month now (so slightly biased). I still cant get over how good it looks on the wrist! And the braclet design is *chefs kiss*. My one complaint which I'm not sure if everyone has is with the lume. For whatever reason the hands don't glow as bright as the hour markers or bezel. But I'm weirdly obsessed with lume on watches...

    Love your vids, Britt!
    The FXD. I love the MN version but have the black one. I previously owned both BB58s and a Submariner and sold each one because the polished cases, glossy dials, gold/metal surrounds were not toolish enough. I also love military (inspired) watches with fixed lugs like the Marathon Navigator and monobloc* cases like the plastic Timex Camper. I’m not a bracelet-type of guy - too much metal. The fact that the dial references the original Snowflake MN watches sold me on it. The dull finish of the titanium is exactly what I wanted - even better than bead-blasted steel. Despite all this, I love certain details on vintage Submariners and the bevels/chamfers** are really satisfying to see.
    *probably misused the word
    **the only thing I’ve ever read about the difference between beveling and chamfering left me even more confused so if you know, please explain it.

    I owned the BB58 (OG) and bought a P39. I gave it 4 months but realised that the BB58 had barely been on the wrist in that time. Ultimately I couldn’t keep both and the BB58 was sold. I really miss it, but wouldn’t trade it for the P39.

I didn't buy it because the BB58 Blue is too similar and I wear it all the time.

    Besides of the clasp and the faux rivets being a permanent discussion point I personally love the unique looks. It’s so cool to not just have another submariner clone. And the clasp is actually really good - it’s just missing the quick adjustment (which you probably don’t really need in 99% of the cases).

    Completely agree with you, Gringa: I've always been a big Tudor fan _in theory_ with their high quality and value, but there's always something about their styling that didn't speak to me...until the Palagos 39. It's definitely on my short list for next year, especially if they introduce another color option or two and *especially* if they see fit to introduce a GMT version (although that would likely make it too thick for my tastes given their other GMT models).
    Having said that, this year's $$$ allocations have already been spent on the Bel Canto and Maen GMT preorders (and a random Glycine Costco Combat on sale because, why the hell not, right? 😁 )

    I have the FXD and really love it. It is my first Tudor and when I got it, I thought it was just okay, and really the only Tudor that caught my attention at the time. I expected I would wear it a little bit and then I'd probably trade it. Well, the more I wore it, the more I loved it and next thing you know, it became the watch getting almost all the wrist time. I recently picked up a 925 for similar reasons.. both watches are just different enough and a little less "predictable." Tudor bracelets don't really do it for me... the Rolex bracelet is just so hard to beat. So for me Its strap or nato all the way with the Tudors.

    I really do need to find a 39 to try on, but it's really cool. The red text is just chef's kiss. I would love to see a blue one. That might be a shut up and take my money release, assuming they executed it well. I really don't mind the rivets on the BB, but absolutely think it's a crime against humanity that they've not updated the rest of the BB line with the T-fit clasp.

    Kind of wish that Tudor would do a series of “Heritage” divers. Some vintage cues but with elegance.
    Something like :
    Matte dial
    White gold indices
    Satin brushed aluminum bezels in Burgundy, green, and blue.
    White gold hands with lollipop sec hand
    Three line script dial with red line
    Non riveted oyster and jubilee options with T clasp
    White gold colored inlay numbers on the bezel
    The two toned subs style would be Tudors nod to their past as well as a sort of Tudor version of the Starbucks (I know they have a Harrods special edition but that’s more of a hunter green)
    Maybe it could even be offered in a more sterile titanium cleaner “aprlogis” edition.
    These could be their higher end line of Tudor.
    Slightly better materials and finish with Meta and Cosc cert.
    also I’d love to see a titanium watch with blue dial and matte black bezel.
    The blue on blue is just not to my taste

    Great video! I love my BB58 Gilt along with my 5 digit sub. The P39 reminds me more of my 5-digit sub aesthetically and proportionately. You cannot go wrong with one of the three. For the FXD you can put on a metal bracelet. Just not in the traditional sense. There used to be some solid clip on bracelets just not sure you can find one in titanium.

    Britt the Pelagos 39 could fit into a collection that also has a BB58, these two are different enough. The BB58 is more of a dressy diver with more polish and a box crystal and a very good one at that where the P39 is more of a modern tool watch with brushed case and flat crystal. Have them both if you can justify them. I'm more than happy with my BB58 (black and guilt) and the P39.

    Interesting video.
    Putting the three watches next to each other was a really interesting exercise. They are all so similar.
    I would propose that the BlackBay line is the odd man out. Somewhat redundant vs. the new watches (ie Pelagos pieces) that Tudor has introduced.
    If Tudor did get rid of the Black Bay line (both heritage and 58), the Pelagos, new Ranger and soon to be changed 1926 / Glamour (?) line could fill the gap (from a product perspective).

    Solid comparison here. The Pelagos 39mm is excellent and shows up as a Ti alternative to the Submariner for a lot less money. I’m a huge Omega fan, but have to admit the Pelagos 39 is a major threat to the Seamaster also. I think Omega needs to look at that and consider pricing decisions or release a Seamaster 200 or something to avoid Tudor drinking the milkshake.

    Hi Britt, The FXD (MN21 specifically) and P39 are in a completely different class to the BB58 IMO.
    The P39 is pretty much a P40, and even the head honcho of Tudor UK had to go and check it was actually Tudors first 21mm lug width when I asked him to confirm, so that's really the spec you need to be mentioning.
    Grade 5 Ti is never going to be found in a Tudor (Only Rolex) due to Hans Wilsdorfs reason for founding the brand (In London, England, like Rolex).
    The P39 is sooooo far from boring lol. Its the best release of 2022 ;)
    The Fake (lets call them what they are) rivets are why the bracelet has very little micro adjust and therefor does not fit a lot of people.
    Pelagos Steel is my prediction for W&W 2023 😈
