I absolutely love it, more so that rolex’s.
Prefer the colours of the blue and red, the sports watch on oyster style over Jubilee.
The strap options, they also offer.
On the list

Beautiful watch. The colours are also definitely going to look closer to the original reds blues of GMT's predecessors.

Wow, amazing offering. The insert colours suit my eye much better than Rolex version. Great job Tudor!

Not sure what to think about Rolex releasing this amazing Pepsi Tudor and the Rolex Pepsi GMT on jubilee...

Both watches look great, both watches have Pepsi bezels, the Tudor has the great vintage throwback look with a very tastefully done and distinct hand set, the Rolex...well looks like a Rolex. For me I think the Tudor offering is actually the winner when comparing the 2.

Could this move by Rolex reduce the demand slightly for the Rolex Pepsi GMT especially if you already have a Batman? We all know the Tudor will be about 4k and probably easier to buy, possibly become one of the hottest tudor sports watches...but the Rolex will be in high demand for people wanting their first GMT.


Love it.

I must be in the minority, I like the ceramic bezel on Rolex, but everything else on the Tudor.

Would have been hilarious if the Tudor GMT was red/Black bezel

Love the 39mm size option. Too bad red bezel is not available for that.

Already got myself on a waitlist for this at one of my AD's. So much for not buying another watch this year

39mm won’t matter. It’s a tall watch with the in house movement. Shield logo. The Rose dials are thinner and now will command an even bigger premium.

I think Rolex actually has a pretty interesting business model now. They make Tudor the way they made 5 digit models. Tool watch in its pure essence. Rolex brand however has 6 digit models that are supposed to be more stylish, more intricate, more of a fashion statement. So I believe both will find their market. I'm not sure what to think about rootbeer TT GMT though. I prefer YG TT with black bezel.
