Tudor Pelagos FXD Red Bull Racing on wrist pics

[Ten Ten & 32]

Called by my local Tudor boutique last night & saw the new Pelagos FXD Red Bull Racing time only piece in person.

Tbh, I was a little underwhelmed - not really sure what I was expecting but was left feeling a little ‘meh!’

The watch itself is ‘ok’ but nothing that really got me overly excited.

The flat blue dial, black case & black carbon insert in the bezel don’t really compliment each other.

The biggest issue I had however was the strap.

Felt cheap & that massive lump of velcro on show was a massive no no for me.

The watch felt super light - was extremely comfortable but nothing about it really grabbed me like I thought or was hoping it would.

This was obviously an exhibition only piece & not for sale.

The SA advised they weren’t expecting any available to purchase for at least 2 months & the Chrono version for possibly 4 to 6 months.

Was asked if I wanted to put my name down but politely declined.

I love Tudor generally & have 2 pieces already but this one isn’t on my ‘to have list’

Just my opinion but trying to be honest.

Maybe it’s a grower & my opinion may change over time but for now, it’s a pass from me.
