      +TheFlyrodder68 Cheers, yeah that was the reason I bought it as well...use it everyday like someone would use their smp300 or Sub. All the stuff I own I use, it seems so weird not to use something to get money out of it later...we never know if we live till tomorrow. So best to enjoy and use the stuff one has!

    Nice update video, Guideaux. That Pelagos is one of the best looking watches made today, in my opinion. I'm impressed that the titanium is resisting scratches so well. Tudor must have a process they used to make the titanium harder and more scratch resistance, like Seiko has their Diashield or Citizens Duratech process. I love the lume on the watch as well, looks beautiful.

    • @GuideauxPelagos

      I do not believe Tudor uses anything other than metal they have insourced. That is one of the real differences between Rolex and Tudor. All Rolex metals are proprietary mixed and processed in their in house foundary. Nothing wrong with it. Just is what it is.

    There are a lot of what appear to be imperfections on the bezel, crystal and bracelet. It would be great if a suitable cleaning cloth could be run over the watch and bracelet live as it is reviewed so the viewer can judge what is a scratch vs what is a smudge or a piece of lint.

I just purchased my first luxury watch, a Pelagos from Watches of Switzerland in Canberra Australia. $aud5750 ($usd4200), after getting a $aud500 ($usd365) discount. Love your channel Guido.

  • @bobfrombrisbane1831
    @bobfrombrisbane1831 9 лет назад +1

    Good progress update, the steel used must be slightly softer compared to the titanium leading to the scratches on the back. I have a small piece of soft fabric I keep where the watch rests during night time and I place it between the back and the clasp.

    • @GuideauxPelagos
      @GuideauxPelagos  9 лет назад

      That is what I should've done and meven maybe leave the plastic protector on the back...but it's ok.

    Hi! I know You switched bracelet to rubber strap and back.
    Did You notice that spring bars became more "free" (pivots have some move against the spring bar's body).
    I faced this issue: If You flip the watch and look on the spring bar ends, when You move the bracelet (or strap) from side to side, the pivots are slightly move causing the bracelet end link to move as well (the move is not more than 0.5mm). It also can be noticed, when the watch sits tight on the wrist and You try to move the watch from side to side or "rock it". I even hear some clicks from the end link (probably due to dust accumulated between end link and the watch)
    So I start to look for replacement spring bars (22mmx1.8mm, 1mm pivot diameter) over the internet (I also going to ask AD for replacement spring bars)

    • @GuideauxPelagos
      @GuideauxPelagos  9 лет назад

      I haven't noticed it on mine. I do not wear it on the rubber tho...since the bracelet is magical. No more noticable wiggle as in other watches I own. Maybe soms heavy duty springbars will solve the wiggle...just be dure tot see if they fit the bracelet/strap.

      ***** under the cuff....not sure what it means but the Pelagos wears fine under a shirt; just remember to not pull it over your head since the bezel leans over the case it can get stuck in clothes when taking them off...no problem as long as you remember. Further a brilliant beater! (especially the eta2824 first gen).

  • @senchaholic

    I think I know why you got your watch cheaper. Your version houses the ETA movement, while the new version houses the Tudor in house mt5612 movement.

    • @GuideauxPelagos
      @GuideauxPelagos  8 лет назад

      +senchaholic Nope, when the first edition came out there was only eta and for almost the same retail price (4100 usd)...I was just smart and didn't buy in a luxury boutique and opted for a workhorse movement (the only available then) instead of a new inhouse thicker movement that has no history or any known defects...it could become a drag if the new movement has unforseen issues. On top of that...the eta Pelagos will be THE watch to collect in 20 years time. (In a sense it is a Rolex and those most valuable ones are the non-inhouse movement models...like the El Primero Daytona...weirdly enough!).
      People seem to keep forgetting the Pelagos is the ultimate toolwatch....first an inhouse movement, what's next...a display caseback?! Otherwise people should just get a Submariner imo. ;-)

      I agree that the two liner would increase in price. are you partial to the 2 liner because you have it or because of its rarity or would you appreciate the inhouse movement better on the newest model (although I think it has too much text on the dial for a tool watch)

    • @GuideauxPelagos
      @GuideauxPelagos  8 лет назад

      That's where the Rolex question comes in imo...it depends if you really are that hung up on the inhouse movement marketing thing Rolex keeps sending out into the world, then go for the first inhouse Tudor movement. If you want to have a freakin'good dive watch of the same quality that has a movement with decades of history and proven extremely reliable in a dive watch + easy to service...get the first gen. But imo it is the watch you look at so the 5 liner would bother me more than the eta inside a 2 liner....nothing is different from the outside except the case of the newer Pelagos is thicker. You can't go wrong with both...even in the long run...but as the ultimate toolwatch diver it was launched I would choose the first generation especially if you want a black one anyway. If you want a blue one...get both, that is too hard of a deciion to make. Cheers. ;-)

    • @Swedeslung
      @Swedeslung 8 лет назад +1

      Guideaux Pelagos I quite understand. I would have bought a Pelagos if it had just a little bit more flare, for example white gold or rhodium hand set but everything else the same. They also changed the lume pattern/datewheel on the new pelagos and added so much more text. I wear Omega but truly appreciate Tudor especially for their iconic designs from then until now.I'm not really hung up on in-house. I would just like abreakdown of what tudor puts into their Modified ETA movements so that way I would be fully confident in their movements, although no one really has any problems accept running too fast or slow on their non chronometer pelagos (past) and black bay versions. Your watch is wonderful and I still like the Pelagos, how do you like the lightness of the titanium?

    • @GuideauxPelagos
      @GuideauxPelagos  8 лет назад

      The lightness is something you forget once you wear it (I gues almost any watch is forgotten while wearing it...even the heavier ones). I actually like it a lot, I have got heavier ss watches and the ti is very handy (and strong!). I like the greyish steelcolour it has.

      He is Dutch, I lived there for a year and this is how many Dutch people sound speaking English (much closer to England than the Canada/USA or Australia, the English speaking countries with different accents). He actually has less of the “Dutch” accent than some, his English is very good!
