I personally love my black ETA Pelagos, so I'd go with that.

I already own it. Tudor Submariner model 75090 (black). It's tough as nails and quite accurate. It 's a mid-size and fits my small wrists.

Although I have a vast collection of Tudors, if I could only own one it would be the BB GMT without hesitation. IMHO it is the best value of any swiss watch and great upside potential.

If I had to choose one of these three I would go with the BB58 blue just because it’s proportions are near perfect.

standard red black bay. so few watches with red accents and the Black Bay has become a staple in the watch world. Probably the best bang per buck diver money can buy

I’ve had my north flag for over two years and still marvel at it. It’s my ‘roughing it’ watch. Tudor is for real on their movements and I love the sharp, angular design you flag in your review : )

I love that green. I wish that was available in California.

Thanks! The MT5621 always impresses as it stays in sync with the atomic clock whenever it’s on rotation.

One of my favorite details of the dial is the minute track on the sloped dial edge.

Pelagos. Most technically impressive new dive watch of the last ten years, let alone at that price point.

if no other similar watches then 58 Blue, otherwise any black bay should suffice.

Blue Pelagos, or North Flag. I tried just having one Tudor, but have since failed. I rotate between the Pelagos, North Flag and BBS&G on leather. They really are quite fantastic timepieces for the money and I wouldn't hesitate recommending almost any of them.

My vote - with my wallet - was the black Pelagos. Beautiful modern technical piece, easily their best watch IMO.

Doesn’t qualify unfortunately- has to be a currently available model.
