The one dial color my collection was missing was blue. Well, not anymore.
Thanks to Thanh aka Takuya I am now the proud owner of a Tudor Pelagos Blue.

What a magnificent watch. The dial color is mesmerizing, morphing from light to medium blue to almost black depending on the light conditions. And the bracelet is truly an engineering masterpiece. So comfortable and light for a larger watch and probably rivals any Rolex bracelet.

I’m very pleased with this acquisition and it closes the book on the “diver” part of my collection. Next up, two more Rolex’s, both OP39’s. One with a white dial and one with a blue dial. Then I can say, collection complete.

Awesome watch. Probably the best “bang for the buck” out of all the high end time pieces. The lume is unrivaled, and it’s a true diver. Sadly, I had to use mine for trade in on a “Smurf” but it was one of my favorite watches while I owned it. Congrats! You’re gonna love it!!

antbkny · 1 June 2018, 04:21 AM

Nice watch! Congrats!

Psijason · 1 June 2018, 04:23 AM

Great watch!!!! The movement in the Pelagos is fantastic!!! Enjoy!!!

PLNYC · 1 June 2018, 04:24 AM

Very nice Angelo! I’ve tried it on at the AD and it feels amazing on the wrist

Gharddog03 · 1 June 2018, 04:25 AM

Congrats!! Very nice piece!

Rick_Nashville · 1 June 2018, 04:25 AM

Big congrats, Angelo, it's a terrific watch! Functional, light-weight, and photogenic, too. Hope it brings you much enjoyment!

Regards, -Rick.

Thanks Rick.
Love the weight of this watch and the dial looks different every time I look at it...which is quite often.

drummerdunc · 1 June 2018, 05:05 AM

Nice one Angelo. It is also fun to put it on the blue rubber strap too which Tudor kindly supply at no extra cost!

Cru Jones · 1 June 2018, 05:06 AM

Many congrats! One of the best of the new Tudors, IMO.

JRT · 1 June 2018, 05:11 AM

Congrats! Tudor Pelagos blue also has a stunning lume that beats all Rolex diver watches.

RazorD · 1 June 2018, 05:47 AM

JR16 · 1 June 2018, 05:50 AM

It’s the best I’ve seen.

I agonized over one of these, but didn't buy in the end. Sure is a beauty. Congrats!

I think I’ve got two of the best divers out there with the Black Bay and Pelagos.

Congrats! Totally agree on how the blue changes. A friend of mine has this one and man does that blue light up under the sun outside.
