Pelagos Clasp Rust?
Pelagos Clasp Rust?
Anyone here experience this? These are always on my shortlist and I'm curious if it's because this one (and the other examples mentioned) had exposure to saltwater or if just sweat will seriously cause this. http://forums.watchuseek.com/f23/tudor- ... 86618.html

Pelagos Clasp Rust?
That appears to be filed in with a colored grease pencil, they the type sometimes used to highlight lettering on firearms.
If rust, it's likely because it wasn't rinsed after prolonged seawater exposure.
While the bracelet is titanium, that part of the clasp is stainless.
I wouldn't worry about it. I've owned several and never a problem.

That's not something I'd expect at this price point or even in the neighborhood of that price point.
You give respect, you'll get respect - you just don't know your place.

I've never seen that before. Only case I'd expect it to happen is if you don't rinse it off after a dive and even still probably after a number of dives.
Many will register, few will last

Seriously, who doesn't rinse a watch after a dive at this price point

I think it looks great. You should scrape the bezel against asphalt - #character #bro #dig #vintage
