These beauties available at ADs!

Tudor hit a home run with this. And having them available in stores already...wow!

I'll have to meander into the San Fran Bay Area to see one of those, so it's going to be a while. The jury is still out for me until I can see it in person, just not sure I can get over the hands. Everything else I like.

I also wanted to test drive them. After playing with both...I like them!

Really really nice in the metal. It has a great wrist presence but you do have to come to terms with the hands on Tudors. I really like them but that’s just me.

Great that Tudor is making their Star of Basel 2018 readily available while the Mothership plays games with their’s.

Really like what Tudor did with it but still too much of a "homage" for me. Beautiful watch though.

I own a BBR and Pelagos LHD, but honestly the Tudor gmt does nothing for me. Not sure if it’s bc i have a 16710. Just seems flat and derivative.
