Great looking watch and collection!

Congrats man!

The Sub-lime One · 29 November 2018, 07:06 AM

Thanks again guys!

I received a call this morning from my usual AD advising they’ve managed to source me one... Too late, you’ve lost this sale!

Fantastic watch. Took a few “Me” moments at work today just so that I could see it under different lighting. Office, kitchen, toilet, reception, conference room and play area.

This watch really is something else!

Congrats it’s a great piece, I’ve enjoyed mine over the last couple of months myself. Now if I could only manage to find the sweet spot in the bracket adjustment.

I hear you, it’s difficult with no micro adjustment at your fingertips. Thankfully, mine is perfect!

Very nice pickup. I notice Tudor seems to get more traction in UK than in the US, or maybe that's just my view.

I was never really sure what to think about Tudor, but I have started to come around. With their new in-house movements with some features even higher tech than Rolex, they are really hitting stride. Some of their watches might seem a little confused, but others are amazing (like yours) and a blue Pelagos I tried on last night.

I do love this watch. I feel confident in saying my next purchase will either be the 58 or a Sub C. The only thing that concerns me about the 58 is the bracelet. While I’ve never actually had the 58 on my wrist, I am sure I have been spoiled to an extent by the oyster bracelet on my 214270. The weight, the comfort, the clasp, the easy link...it is a marvel.

The aesthetics of the 58 knock it out of the park. The big question for me is how it will feel on my wrist.

Sarosh · 29 November 2018, 06:18 PM

Congrats Dee! It’s a great watch!

Tudor is Rolex's cooler, younger brother that rides a motorcycle and wears a leather jacket.

I’m in agreement, had they not introduced this I definitely wouldn’t have bought one.

I have a BLNR and LVc too... As comfortable as they are, they don’t have a patch on this. Thankfully for me, I hardly use the glidelock or easy link as the fit is perfect . The weight of this piece is pretty much nothing.

One thing I will say again, people that need to constantly adjust the bracelet may find this as a negative because of the lack of “instant “ micro adjustment. I’m not one of them.

Well, that's a good question. I was just at my AD today and he still hasn't seen one. We both were thinking that's kind of odd. He's had a few of the GMT's, but no dice on the 58.

I think the pics look great, but I'm reserving judgement until I see one in the flesh.
