Tudor BB Red vs Tudor Pelagos Black
Hi All thanks for helping me pick between the BB Black and the Red. I am now debating between the BB Red and the black Pelagos. What do you guys think? Both are i price range. The pelagos is a bit pricier but comes with the awesome bracelet. The BB red only comes with leather. Thanks for helping a felow TRFer out!

Pelagos for me.
If you are leaning towards the BB, I would look for one with the bracelet. |

BB Red get my vote. The Pelagos Black looks like so many other watches out there. But it sounds like you want a BB Red on a bracelet, and they sell that. So you're in luck!

I'm a big fan of the pelagos and own the two liner version. Try them both on and you will naturally gravitate towards one, since they feel very different on the wrist. Also, not a fan of leather straps on a dive watch, since it seems like fashion won over function by design.

The BB is the more playful, fun loving member of the family.This is my impression of the Pelagos

Pelagos, especially with the in-house movement is a technically superior watch, and really the best "tool" watch made by Rolex. BB red has a bit more flair to it though. Form or Function, the choice is yours. Blue Pelagos has both IMO.

Not fond of the cut-out dial on the Pelagos; I guess I'm too OCD to have it on my wrist. Love my BBs however!!! The Pelagos reminds me of alignment structures used in photolithography; I keep looking for the direction of misalignment.
