Just received my Tudor Black Bay

So, I was in Europe this week, and picked up a Tudor Black Bay on bracelet, which I got after VAT refund for 2100 Euros, which I think is a pretty good deal.

Anyhow, this is a photo of the watch, a wrist shot, and a comparison shot with my Rolex Ceramic Submariner No Date.

Nice, didn't know that the BB was bigger than the Sub 14060M. Beginning to get that itch for the BB.

A great pair, congrats. So is this one a keeper, preferred to the Pelagos?

I love the side-by-side picture. It's easy to see the family resemblance. I'd love to see a Pelagos included...but who has a wrist long enough to show off three watches?
