Just got a Pelagos Blue

Hi everyone -

I just picked up a Pelagos Blue. Loving it... is an understatement. I never really gave enough credit to legibility before. I mean, I always paid attention to it, and if I wasn't able to recognize the time and a quick glance, I would move on to the next watch, but this takes it to the next level. I have a 7.25" flat wrist and this fits very well.

I am eager to start trying out some strap combos, but I think the bracelet will end up occupying most of the time on this watch (unique for me). As a strapaholic, I was wondering about the spring bars. Can anyone tell me where to get replacement spring bars with the same dimensions (I expect to lose one over the course of my ownership)? I am guessing Tudor is a first to look, but I doubt they sell in quantities.

Here are a couple pics I have snapped. I will post more when I switch to other straps.

Thanks!

Great incoming, it's a beauty! I picked one up a few years ago and I've been thoroughly enjoying it ever since. Hope it brings you much watch-wearing satisfaction!

Congrats! My wife gave me mine about a month ago and I’ve worn it more than anything else I own. My AD didn’t have the strap when my wife purchased so I used the bracelet for the first 3 weeks. I LOVE the adjustable clasp! Picked up the strap last weekend and I plan on keeping that combo for another couple of weeks before switching back to the bracelet.

Like you, I love how it is understated and I can wear it to my in-laws and they have no idea if I’m wearing a $200 watch or a $10,000 watch. To them, it just looks cool with the flat blue.

Yes its a great looking watch the Tudor line have some fantastic watches, and not like Rolex who mainly cosmetically change old ones.

Congratulations-I got one last week as well and it is a cracking watch.
Can't help with the spring bars I'm afraid-mine will stay on the bracelet.
