Tudor GMT



Here is a picture of my new Tudor Gmt. It's so nice! Tomorrow I'm off to the AD to order a no date sub as a companion to this sweetheart...

Congrats and wear in good health! Been looking at this one a lot recently and love how it looks. Shame I feel this one would be a bit to big on my wrists personally as I've heard its similar to the original black bays in size. Jealous at those who can wear this with style!

I think there is way too much said about size of watches - if you like it wear it


well done on the pick up - great watch at a great price and you cant say that very often these days


had mine nearly 6 months now and only recent acquisition of the new Omega SMP 300m has kept the tudor off my wrist - worth a check out if you are looking at a dive watch next and it does not HAVE to be a Rolex- half the price and you can get one readily - I have had a sub c date for 6 years till last year and Omega has really knocked this one out of the park

Congratulations!! Love that watch and it looks great on you. How are you finding the fit of the bracelet? I could never get mine just right. Either too tight or too loose, no matter what micro adjust setting I used. I wish Tudor would supply (or at least make availabalenfir purchase) a half link. Ended up trading mine for a 116710LN, but not because I didn’t like the watch, only because of the bracelet fit on my wrist. Not raining on anyone’s parade here. It’s a fabulous watch and I still think it’s awesome.

Fantastic piece, congrats!

I’m strongly considering breaking my one watch rule for this one, It combines the best of the vintage looks and the best of modern reliability.

I’m loving this watch, but I completely agree about Tudor offering a 1/2 link. How hard can it be? I had my watchmaker drill a fourth set of holes in the clasp to improve my options....but it’s still not perfect.

I had it fit a bit loose and used the micro adjustment to get it just right. I guess my wrist size is easy to accommodatie. Picking up the leather strap with deployment tomorrow for a change up once and a while. I think this model works well on leather strap.

I have the leather, but haven’t used it yet. I have, however, used the déployant with a RubberB, which worked really well.
