I love all sorts of watches and all sorts of brands. I have one of the less loved Tudors (fastrider black shield to go with my Ducati Monster 1200R) and am nothing but impressed by their current line up.

I'm all about brand loyalty, and having favorites but i feel like people who dont try other things and refuse to even look at other brands are really missing out.

The BB58 is cool, in fact I’m wearing a BB58B right now. However, I am not sure any of their other models are more interesting than any other brand. Subjective for sure, but they’re just too thick for my tastes.

I have a bunch of watches from Rolex and AP. I would very much like to add a few Tudors in there. Great watches and the price point is great.

I could go for a BB if Tudor goes back to annon-rivet bracelet.

Each to their own, Tudor make a great watch for the price.
Not keen on the faux rivet bracelet, wish they would revert back, my opinion of course.

I wouldn't say more interested, but I'm definitely a fan.

Luckily, my AD carries both brands, so I can honestly say I enjoy drooling over the Tudors in the case as much as the Rolex.

I really would like a BBB with a blue bezel, but I cannot bring myself to order one because of the 15mm thickness. It has the same mov't. as the BB58, but it's 2+mm thicker. I cannot figure out why. I hope Tudor recognizes this and fixes it. The older BBB with the ETA was 12.5mm thick, but I want the new 'in-house', (ish), mov't.

I couldn’t care less about Tudor, I did own a BB a couple of years ago but couldn’t bond with it all, it’s a downgrade on a Rolex and there’s no avoiding that fact, good value but that’s all it has going for it in my opinion

Bought one for my son for his graduation and fell in love with it. Pictures don’t do it justice. Size, weight, and wearability are perfect. Looking to get one for myself.

With the current Rolex lack of supply and crazy pricing, Tudor has become more popular it seems to me. I am very pleased with my BB Bronze which is so unique and well executed.

Tudor makes one watch I like a lot, a real lot. Blue BB58.

I certainly prefer Rolex, Omega and Breitling over Tudor.

I even prefer more models from Tag Heuer, Nomos and Longines than Tudor. Just being honest...

Tudor isn't bad after all, I will love to see what they will come up with this year too.

Tudor makes beautiful watches, but if it must look like a Rolex then let it be a Rolex.

I do like Tudor, amazing quality for the money. I have a BB, and would be keen for a chrono or a BB58blue as well...

Strap monsters!

You hit the nail on the head.

My opinion, this will be a better shade of green for Tudor. More like muted moss/sage green.

I hope they make the Pelagos in steel or silver other variant of the snowflake sub. That would be cool. I like Tudor, it's also nice to be able to buy one msrp or less if you want one. Rolex and their lack of availability is getting tiring.

Did someone said BB58 ?

Black BB58 has been taking most wrist time since its arrival here as well!

The GMT has checked all the boxes for me. I wear mine more often than not, it seems. I think they make a great watch.

Tudor is just so exciting. Plus, when you buy one it has all the Rolex execution without some of the expensive materials. Great stuff.
