Lets take some attention away from the other Tudor discussion going on, what a roller coaster I wish I was never part of.

Needed something to hold me over for a few months until I pick up my 519LN in November... Have to say initial response is I love this watch, it is a fantastic diver and I think it is certainly hitting above its price range. (Picked up at ~4,000USD all in from the dealer here)

As I am a new collector, its still tough for me to grasp the Tudor vs Rolex... but Think this will be a staple to my collection for years to come.

Originally wanted Blue, but was convinced by the rep that black is more daily and I think I have to agree.

Lets see yours!

It really gives the appearance of a much bigger diver when it’s lumed up
In the darkness

So far very happy with it.

Such a handsome piece. I'm super close to pulling the trigger on a blue one, or maybe the black... I was set on blue, but now you have me considering black.

This was exactly me. So far extremely happy with my choice. Perfect for daily use. Ticks all the boxes and the titanium bracelet is top.

Very nice watch, Tudor Pelagos looks so well builted, so strong and really well done. I like the dial and the hands wow !

kieselguhr · 9 September 2019, 05:33 AM

Looks nice

dxbtousa · 9 September 2019, 08:04 PM

Thanks guys, and will definitely post pics of the 519 when i pick it up in November

Thx67 · 9 September 2019, 08:58 PM

Great watch. I know its sacrilegious but I bought a Pelagos over a sub! Had my heart set on a sub but once I got it on my wrist I didnt like the lugs. Never intended to even look at a Pelagos but the AD suggested one. The second it hit my wrist I loved it. Biggest thing for me is the legibility. In bright sunlight it looks like the crystal has fallen out. Im a watch tart and constantly flip/trade watches as I fall out of love with them fairly easily but the Pelagos is definitely a keeper. I would say its pretty close to a GADA watch although a bit industrial looking for more formal occasions. As much as I would like to post a photo, I cannot for the life of me work out how to do it. I need a URL or have to resize the photo??

Couldn’t have said it better myself. Very much agree. I enjoy that I can wear this to work and it flies under the radar.

Also for photos upload to imgbb, easy and free and then select the “bbc full linked” and copy that to your post.

I actually googled it and still can’t figure out what GADA means, please help out an aging dad...
