Re: New Tudor model announcement
Here's a real life picture:
Much worse. However, I like that they were totally consistent with yellow treatment. They should have done all the text in yellow as well.
On edit - it would also be much better if it was just
Pelagos

It's a real disappointment after the build up. I was kinda hoping Tudor might have a GMT on deck.toxicavenger wrote:I dig the red text on the dial, and the red date wheel. But the red is usually hard to see on a date wheel. Maybe if they only did "Sunday" in red like the og Tudor's. The flipped case is a waste of time though. And what a small market to try and connect with.
@T-ball - A date wheel that only shows red on Sunday? Think it through, I'll wait.....
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

They're saving that for the special "U2' edition to be launched at BaselWorld 2017. You heard it here first...Henryj wrote:toxicavenger wrote: A date wheel that only shows red on Sunday?

Awful, looks like super lumonova was defective and it yellowed in the sun.JP Chestnut wrote:Here's a real life picture:

Floating down canal
It doesn't use numbers or moving hands
It always just says now
Now you may be thinking that I was had
But this watch is never wrong

They should have gone full-on dumb, with a PR in red and added the BB crown.
Re: New Tudor model announcement
Anyone here know the dimensions? Especially the height? I assume it's the same case as the Gen II which I believe is thicker than Gen I.
only accurate watches are interesting

Too gimmicky, the more I look at it

Re: New Tudor model announcement
I think so. But one thing I like about Tudor divers is most the time their casebacks are very flat. Unlike Rolex.dnslater wrote:Just a thicker case back?toxicavenger wrote:The 2nd gen was .5mm thicker I thinkmarchone wrote:Anyone here know the dimensions? Especially the height?

Get it from the 19- and 20-year old chilluns, they dig me more when I use it.andrema wrote:New guy said "totes"... I guess we have a valley girl in our midst.abuemily wrote:I totes want this.

I prefer the warmer Panerai fake vintage lume over the Tudor Golden Shower Pelagos. Your 372 and 422 look much nicer.Nellipj wrote:andrema wrote:
