Incoming!

Very excited! Just picked up the FXD. I really like this watch! The contrast between the white, flat blue, and dull grey is so good!

James, what is your wrist size? I’m hesitant about the 42mm size of watch

Congrats. Love mine. I wear it on the OEM NATO. I'm on my laptop a lot for work and I don't have to worry about a metal bracelet getting scratched by the laptop or vice versa. Great watch!

The Pelagos is an awesome watch, have had my blue Pelagos for a few years now and it’s been great. Lume is amazing And very light and comfortable.

Congrats!

Very cool! I have asked a couple of ADs for this in the past month. Hopefully one comes my way.

Looks great on you, congratulations.

6.7" wrist, relatively flat.
This watch to me is very comparable to a submariner or newer seamaster300m

Hi James, picked mine up a few months ago and left to sleep in the box until my holiday in italy there now and it's getting wrist time and I have to say this is one hell of a good chronometer, legibility, comfort and style yet to see another wish you health to wear it cheers mate.

My favorite Tudor, congrats. I love the design is all original to Tudor and not trying to be a Rolex homage style of watch.

Haven’t taken it off yet! One feature that does not stand out but is slowly noticed is how shallow the air space between dial and glass is. Really feels like everything is pushed out to the limit for legibility
