Another vote for Tudor time keeping. Had my blue Pelagos on my wrist for the past 2 weeks. Just checked it and it's running 12 seconds slow. Less than -1spd is ok in my book!!

All the discussions on this thread made me want to get my new Tudor out today and wear it. Unfortunately when I started to wind it it started vibrating! Each time I turned the winding crown it would spin the counter weight. It's about 20 days old, purchased from a AD and the first time wearing it. Kinda sucks.

I will turn it in tomorrow for warranty repair. 5 year warranty. Can't wait to see how many months it will take to get it back. I wonder if the watch goes to a RSC or somewhere else. Does anyone know where Tudor is sent for warranty repair?

My "new to me" 2023 Ranger 39mm is bang on after two weeks on my wrist.

My BB58 Bronze is equally as good.

They are approaching the accuracy of my GS 9F.

Amazing movements!

Look, a plain and simple fact for you Padi...

Rolex should better regulate their watches then!

My Tudor BB54 is consistently more accurate than my Submariner, and so have all the Omega watches I've owned before it.

So in the ...25-26 days in purchase it is currently running at +1 second. Not SPD but 1 second in total currently. It has fluctuated slightly, at one point it was about 1 second slow, but that was after a day of rest, when wearing regularly it has never been more than 2 seconds fast.

It has been remarkable to say the least and it makes wearing it all the more enjoyable
Good.

My BB58 was about +1s every three days when it was new, two years later, -5 seconds/day.

I like it when old threads find their way back to the top. I wasn’t a Tudor owner in 2021 when this thread was started, but I am now. Great keepers of time in my experience.

I’ve owned 2 FXDs and 4 Pelagoses and unquestionably all were the most accurate automatic watches I have ever owned.

I have Tudors with in house movements and one with an ETA movement. They only other watch in my collection that rivals them in accuracy is my spring drive a Grand Seiko.

I've owned several Tudors and still own the Pepsi GMT today and accuracy has always been impressive.

I took a BB58 Blue in part exchange against my 14060M 4 liner last year, on my smallish wrist it wears better and the timekeeping is better, it's certainly getting more wrist time than the Sub ever did!

That's great accuracy. I get about -1 second a day on my BB Harrod's edition.

All is well with my 2024 Ranger. No problems to report and enjoy wearing it as much as most of the Rolex watches in the collection.

Yep, I've had some pretty darn good results too with my gilt BB58.

Movement durability over time... now that's the question
