    Not a big collector here. But I ordered a BB58 about 3 years ago. Waited patiently untill I got the call from the dealer about a year ago. When I went there they had the white panda chrono there as well. After wearing it for a few minutes I ordered one and am waiting again....

      @R A no it's not. That's what someone who doesn't know what they are talking about or has eaten for breakfast all the marketing Rolex has done and has an enlarged ego. By the way I have multiple Rolex watches and I don't see Tudor as the poor man's watch. I have this new Tudor on order too. You should be happy that people can all enjoy different brands at different price points without dusting off that ever so original phrase you posted.

    Teddy the best part of your videos is your ability to look at brands the are in a price range most people can afford. Your reviews of such brands like Tudor, IWC, Hamilton, Grand Seiko etc that are overlooked because of higher end brands. Even when you shopped with Mr Wonderful you looked at some excellent choices at affordable prices. Because of your reviews I purchased a Grand Seiko Spring Drive GMT and love this watch. Keep up the great work.

    Great video! I actually got to play with the black dial at my local AD today. While I really like the way they look and think the B01 movement is magnificent, its a big, thick watch that probably won’t be for folks with smaller wrists. If this was a 40mm / 13mm thick piece, it would be a perfect watch and I would probably buy one.

    Great video. I love the standard panda version of this watch! I have the same size wrist as you, so the size is pushing it, but I have an ETA Black Bay red from 2015 and feel that I actually pull it off fine. This time around, though, I've given my wallet a bit of a break and just bought the Hamilton Intra Matic Chrono, which is also a stunner at less than half the price. Though not in the same league, there is something about the Hammy that pulled me in and keeps me staring at it. For this year's Tudor releases, I have my eye on the silver dial Black Bay 36, which is also pulling me in and would fit my wrist perfectly.

  • @MichaelSmith-fn1ci
    @MichaelSmith-fn1ci 3 года назад +3

    Both are beautiful watches. However, for me the Panda’s white hands and dial doesn’t make it the easiest watch for glancing the time. Also the snowflake hour hand can obscure the chronograph’s sub dials, making them impossible to read.

  • @JohnDorey-z8c
    @JohnDorey-z8c 3 месяца назад

    Question for anyone familiar with this watch: Does the large second hand ever stop and have to be restarted or will it run continuously as long as the watch has power. I only ask because I have a couple of chronographs that stop at noon on the hour and you have to press the 2 o clock button to restart it.

  • @carlosbello3062

  • @day_changer

    How does the Chronograph work? It looks like the 3 o’clock dial goes to 45. Does this mean that it only times up to 45 minutes? This seems strange when other Chronographs such as Breitlings time up to 12 hours.

    Quick general question and need some advice from anyone who can help.
    Looking to buy my first 'proper' watch and I have thin wrists. About 5.9~/6 inches.
    I have a decent budget of between £150-£700~ (yes it's varied), and I have some watches in mind that are round 34~mm such as;
    -Timex marlin hand-wound
    -Junghans max bill manual wind
    -Naos XS silver
    -vintage Omega Seamaster 34mm
    But as it's my first proper watch, do I risk going for vintage? Or just go for new seeing as it's first watch?
    I'd prefer a casual type watch and my eyes are on the Junghans so far, but need to find more 34mm~ watches

    I have an odd question, and maybe naive, but I've never owned one of these. If the running chronograph goes beyond the 45 marker does it continue to run? Just want to know for timing events beyond 45 minutes. For example 15 = 60 minutes, etc.

Strap lasted only 2 years, but local strap maker made a stronger and nicer looking one using the original clasp for about 75% less than the Tudor original one. Great watch, and a bargain actually.

I was considering the Omega Speedmaster Racing co axial, but the Tudor is very similar and at about approximately $2000 cheaper I think I'll buy it. If I get buyers remorse I'll just sell it on and recoup my investment.

    Will you ever do a review on a Cartier watch? By chance the ballon?

    Tough choice i like both! Just checked out new blue but it’s a bit too flashy for me.
    Question: anyone purchased from Jomashop? Whats scoop with them being $1k less than retail… to good to be true. At this price point I think I will just go to a Tudor boutique- seems like a safer bet. Thoughts and comments greatly appreciated
    Awesome reviews Teddy! You rock

    Thanks for the video Teddy... my favourite is the 36mm Explorer. I'm a little bit torn between new and the old 114270. ... but I think it has to be the new (modern movement, bracelet, lume, 5 year warranty, under crystal anti reflective coating)... but there is a really beautiful video by YoureTerrific that really confused the whole thing for me..... so still not sure which one.. hope you get to review it soon. Thanks

    I like the Panda, but being a bit colorblind, I can’t really read the time on it. There is not enough contrast on the hour and minute hand. A watch has one job…. 😢

    The White dial is amazing! Love mine! Thankfully I have a great dealer that ppreciates my loyalty!

    Love my new chronograph 🐼. Waited 6 months for AD to call me. As Teddy mentioned, stopwatch has firm click to start, stop, & reset.

    Tudor Had one of the Best Releases, followed by Breitling even though they didn’t partake in Watches and Wonders. The Black Dial is a Stunner and With the Date Option I prefer this over the Roooolex Chrono.

    That Panda is my new grail... although I'd prefer a ceramic bezel insert.

    I would have hopped on that Reverse-Panda SO QUICK if I wasn't already so damn close to hitting the Retail Price of the SLGH005 from Grand Seiko...
    Love both of these, but if I had to choose, I'd take even the SBGA211 (Snowflake) from GS over either of them... And especially the SLGH005 White Birch...
    These are some of my favorite chronographs out there though, which surprised me quite a bit considering I've never been a fan of these Tudor hands... But there's so much good, I feel it outweighs my slight issue with the hour hand specifically.
    Great video Teddy!

    Very nice, but I think too big for my wrist. See my AD tomorrow and prob going to pass for a GMT master II instead.

    Anyone know the thickness of the sapphire crystal? If the crystal is 1mm thick wouldnt the watch technically be 13mm thick?

    Love it but don't like the use of aluminum on the bezel.

    Teddy which one would you prefer? Panda or reverse I was super torn when I made my selection

      I am very torn as well. When I first tried them on I was leaning silver but after a week I think the black took my heart. It looks a bit better on my wrist. Appears smaller too.

      Black on bund strap is the best choice. Bracelet is a close second

    Love the white dial, but concerned a bit about legibility. Got rid of my white dial Speedy Racing for that reason. Don't want to make the same mistake twice. Another great video Teddy.

      @guillaumeriviere4870 3 года назад +1

      I own the panda (white dial) and I can confirm that legibility is really bad, it didn't strike me on the pictures, but the first time that I took it outside it was really hard to actually read the time, I don't get why they didn't put black hands.
      This white on white is terrible

    The reverse Panda looks better. Will get that one. Thanks for the video.

      I have the Panda, its a matter of preference. The Pandas have been all the rage & harder to find in general. I want both,I'm greedy!

    Too big I think but I do like them. For me I ordered the new BB58 925 silver from my AD. I have already bought the blue and black versions from them so they know me. I was told the silver BB58 isn't a high volume piece and they will only get two this year. Luckily for me they have reserved one for me which should arrive in just a week or two.
