It's Here!
...I promise this time.
What a week. When the delivery window was missed Tuesday, that made for a tough delivery as I have been on the road non stop since Tuesday. But, to UPS's credit, they kept after it and finally it is on my wrist. First impressions: I really, really like this watch. I personally like the lightweight feel of the titanium, I find it very comfortable. Legibility and lume are fantastic and it fits and feels great. The blue...let's just say it stole my heart. In pics, I didn't know how I would like the absence of the WG surrounds...in real life, it has a cool almost retro vibe. Makes for a nice change up from other watches...and isn't that what you want? A win all the way around, IMO. Anyway, here's a quick shot. Have a great Friday and weekend TRF! |

It's Here!
Congrats. Love several things about this new Pelagos. Lumed ceramic bezel, shape of the crown guards, snow flake hands, titanium case, new movement and the whole modern/vintage vibe. Never have given Tudor much thought but have been seriously thinking about getting one of these. Tend to be more of a four and five digit guy, but this really does a nice job of melding the old with the new.
Enjoy.

Wear it in good health.

That looks really good. I think the lack of wg markers makes it a more legit tool watch. Congrats!
