Anyway, thanks for the pics!
Sure, it is but that does not preclude it from being a cracking watch. The midcase thickness both visually and actually is a non issue to a SD wearer such as me. The tudor actually is much more balanced on wrist.

Was at an AD a few days ago and had a look at the B.B. with the steel bezel. It was awesome.

Tudor is killing it right now, imho.

I know what you're saying but isn't the Black Bay line up basically homage? I can't imagine how else a Tudor Black Bay GMT could possibly be.

I’ve got both on order and plan on letting my girlfriend pick the one she wants. It’s easier that way because I’m not sure which one I like more. Easily my favorite pieces

Nice photos; my four Tudors are enough. Not really in need of a GMT in red and blue. My SkyD does the trick. CHNR likely for redundancy.

Looks good but I'm not buying anything without ceramic bezels anymore. No scratch, no fade, no corrosion and a much nicer color saturation/shine.

GMT looks awesome. How thick is it? How did it feel on the wrist?

Can everyone STOP bigging these Tudors up PLEASE! Haha.

I just want to be able to walk into an AD and buy one.

The AD’s get wind of the desperation and before we know it 5 year waiting lists and warranty cards withheld and everyone MUST have one. If you’re lucky enough to get one the AD will de-sticker it in front of you while he gets off with it.

I heard they’re made of cheese and have in house, zero jewel pin lever movements
