Please Tudor, I beg you!

Please Tudor, I’m begging you for a Baby Pelagos this Basel World. 39mm, same bracelet, could be either black or blue, same wr. That watch would be a dream!

And as a bonus, 39mm GMT.

Please!

They'd be stupid not to with the success of the BB58. I'd be surprised if we don't see a few <40mm watches released next month.

39mm GMT would be a dream come true! But so close on the heels of last year's GMT?

I would be interested in a 39mm Pelagos but I doubt we see a new smaller GMT for some time. Seeing as how I own the BBGMT I would be perfectly OK with them discontinuing it for a smaller version....again not going to happen.

I absolutely would love to see the watches scaled down.

39mm and thinner Exp II - similar to the last one - No "maxi" anything.
Scale the Exp 1 down a hair.

Everything seems to have a bloated case just for the sake of having a bloated case. I miss the 5 series dimensions and I think this gigantic watch nonsense is finally coming to en end, thankfully.

IMO the Pelagos already wears much smaller than dimensions would suggest.

I think a 100% Steel Pelagos would be great! I'd ditch the Ti version in a heartbeat.

A BB58 size GMT would be awesome!

I think a smaller Pelagos would be killer. Nothing against Black Bay's (I own a GMT), but I think the Black Bay is a clear step down from the Pelagos as a diver. The Pelagos has a more advanced bezel and bracelet, has a more unified design, and is even more legible. It is, however, large. A 39MM Pelagos would open this beauty up to a whole new audience.

A Pepsi BB58 GMT would be an extremely tempting timepiece.

I think what you are thinking of may be what Tudor releases at Basel this year instead of the Submariner.

My guess is a SS Pelagos like diver at a 39-40mm size. Black and red ceramic bezel with luminous portions (red for first 10 mins on timing bezel).

This will pair with the black and red ceramic Rolex Coke release and red hand GMT Master LN releases. I believe the Coke though is white gold and taking the place of the Pepsi blue dial currently in production or that was more recently in production.

I own a black bay and think they need to work on case thickness more than anything. I enjoy the watch but wish it was 1-2mm thinner. The 41mm diameter is fine for me.

Honestly, I feel like their diver and GMT watches are fine as is. Where I'd like to see some development is in the chrono line.

Perhaps more movement sharing with Breitling for a Tudor Submariner Chronograph?

Probably wouldn't be too different than the BB Chronograph other than bezel and dial color if they did. But would be pretty cool imo

You've got a point about the chronos, but the consensus about the GMT is that it needs to be downsized.
