- The main topic of this video is the comparison between the Rolex Submariner and the Tudor Pelagos. It is about showing that big price differences are not always justified in the watch world when it comes to quality. But that is for the viewer to decide, what is clear though, is that both watches are incredibly good products.
Enjoy and let us know what you think!
A different but very good comparison. You just pointed out the differences between two toolwatches wihtout any luxury bla bla. By the way, I like that you really use your watches. Most people just baby their watches and tell how robust they are...
Greetings

Thank you Sebastian! This really means a lot to us ;)
There is no point In babying watches, i see we agree on this :)
I got my blue pelagos a month ago. Love it
Thank you for a great video, excellent camera work.
I also buy a watch to wear it.
It is indeed a very personal feeling when a watch speaks to you.
The Pelagos LHD illicited such a emotion in me, I bought it and wear it almost daily. Two years later, whenever I look at it on my wrist, I still get that feeling
I have never seen a rolex that gave me a similar feeling, as I said, it's a very personal thing.
Thank you! That means a lot to us 😊
It is so nice when you find a watch that you really love for such a long time, the Pelagos is an amazing daily watch. I hope you get to enjoy it for many more years to come 😊
Rolex is so great that even their sister brand is better than most watches.
The pelagos in my opinion is a true tool watch that is tremendous bang per buck. The quality is amazing and the titanium makes it a pleasure to wear, love mine!
It truly is, and if you saw it in one of my previous videos, I completely bashed it taking it to the beach with me
@10:31 Rolex has to update the hands on its watches to full lume on darker dials and/or larger hands for easy readability. The current hands are a dated style and make the watch too difficult to read compared to the competition.
Interesting thought. I guess they could at least use different hands for their deep sea or sea dweller. But i guess the Mercedes hands have become synonymous with Rolex.
Thanks for the comment :)
I just bought both
Have a Tudor BB 58 925 and now want to get a Blue Pelagos, its a phenomenal watch in all aspects , especially when comparing it with a Sub.
The Pelagos really is an outstanding watch 😊 also very different to the BB58 especially if you have the silver one, right?
@@TheWatchScientists Correct its the new Silver one... & agree there so very different!
I like it but prefer the black on grey much better
Seeing a Sub that's been properly worn makes me very happy!
I sold my Sub 41 and Cermit 41. They are becoming too large and although terrific watches I not a fan of the cyclops. I have this Pelagos blue and it wears smaller than the new 41 subs. I have retained my iconic 39 explorer full lume, a the special Sea Dwellers 16600 and 116600…both are superior in every aspect to the sub. Added the silver 925 58 & I do not miss the newer iterations of the sub
Rolex’s lume is claimed to be proprietary “chromalight,” an exclusive, in-house made lume. It’s not conventional superluminova. While the Pelagos may be brighter, what separates Rolex’s lume apart from superluminova: longer lasting lume.
That sub is the 116610, isn't it? With the 40mm case and only 48hr power reserve?
This is the 41mm!
You are correct- the Submariner featured is the 116610 (40mm with “Maxi Case” and 3135 caliber)….NOT the 126610 41mm model. The reviewer is lucky- the early 6-digit is a much safer bet than the newer models with the 32xx calibers.
If you want a tudor then get either the black bay chronograph or pelagos 39mm.
very good video, love it!
Thank you
Great comparison review, thank you. But who actually goes diving with either watch? If anything you would add a second dive computer or a bottom timer as a backup instrument.
I definitely agree with you telling the time is not the only thing needed for diving 😅
But i can imagine it’s cool to take you watch for some casual dives
I love this watch and have been wanting it for quite some time now, I even had the chance to see it in person and could also wear it a bit but I just don't see myself wearing it everyday maybe because of its proportions. The Rolex sub has the perfect size and feels great on the wrist that's why it will always be a better watch then the Pelagos in my opinion even though I know the Pelagos is a better watch in terms of specifications.
It’s a fair point you make.
Functionally and performance wise the Rolex is less water capable but probably keeps slightly better time. It’s greater price is all in the name.
I would like a sub, but you cannot get one in an AD for love not money!!
I have a Pelagos and a Seamaster 300m - I’ll sit tight for a call from Rolex
Those are amazing watches 😉
I got a Tudor gmt I paid retail and absaloutely love it a amazing value I would like to purchase the pelagos. But for some reason feel the need to own at least 1 sub even if I have to pay above retail then I can also enjoy my other watches and say I own a Rolex even though I know quality wise a omega planet ocean is comparable
Everyone should buy the watches they want it doesn’t always have to be the most rational or logical decision 😉
You should just be clear about why you want a certain watch so you don’t run the risk of buying a watch for the wrong reasons.
Great video! Is it just me or is the index at 1 O'Clock misaligned (not central) compared to the others on the Pelagos?
I think it's a matter of shadow. I haven't got the watch with me now to check.
I am torn between these two watches I love the look and functionality of both. If they were priced the same I would go for the Sub all day long just because of the Rolex brand however because the Tudor is half the price and virtually just as good a watch as the Sub I must seriously consider it.
Definitely one to consider, which colour would you opt for?
@@TheWatchScientists Black and white I love a plain looking piece.
I’ve been saying this since I got my blue Pelagos in 2017!
It’s so good!
Because I like the Submariner a lot more.
well you're free to get one, the point of the video was to show that price differences don't have to say a lot.
Hello and it is nice review, but the Tudor PELAGOS is PÉLAGOS and not PELÁGOS ! ! !
It is from the Hellenic word "Πέλαγος" mean open sea ! ! ! 😉
Chaos! Noted 🙌🏽
Screw Rolex
Both watches are great
And you’re absolutely right about that.
Nice!
The Pelagos looks a lot bigger,compared side-by-side, maybe I won’t like that
The Pelagos is 42mm and the sub around 40mm. The Pelagos is also thicker
I own both. They are far apart in appearance and quality. Is the difference $5000. USD no. But one is a rough and tumble tool watch the other a timeless classic. It you get a Pelagos and actually wanted a Submariner you will never be totally satisfied. They both full to different positions in the watch world. Again I have both and they are not interchangeable. The Submariner is wonderfully interchangeable going from tool to dress effectively the Pelagos can't punch up that high. I love it but it's a great tool watch maybe the best.
Completely agree with what you’re saying. The title is also just meant to generate some discussion 😉
Make a pelagos 40mm, and I' ll buy it tomorrow!!!
Wouldn’t be a tool watch at 40mm.
@@harrysmith3502 🤔
@@simonecocco5286 Have you ever tried to turn a 40mm bezel with wet 5mm neoprene dive gloves on?? To earn the name of “Tool watch”, it needs to be usable. Any smaller than a 42mm, means the only doable diving to be done will be at a desk.
@@harrysmith3502 .....or maybe in a swimming pool 😁
@@harrysmith3502 anyway, you are right about that! Cheers!!!
If you really want the Rolex and you buy the Tudor then in a few years you will regret not buying the Rolex. When you then want to buy the Rolex the Tudor will be worth less than half the original purchase price and the Rolex will be even further from your reach. If you want a Rolex buy one and you won't regret it.
You’re absolutely right on this, the title and discussion is more a way to create room for comparison.
Setting it on those stones, may scratch it 😂😢😂😢
There is a glass on top of the stones.
Sub duh!
What’s your reason? :)
