If they put the "Jubilee" on this I'd own it.

Interesting idea. ‘Uncle’ (FKA Uncle Seiko) makes some decent aftermarket bracelets for Tudor. I’ve been considering a jubilee for my BB58.

Looks fresh! But I'm still not a fan of the pepsi colors.

I'm not a fan of Tudor's bracelets... those studs just don't do it for me.

I'm down..I've been saying this since some weeks ago that I wished either Omega or Tudor to bring out a polar gmt. Tudor listened.

I'm on the Exp2 polar waitlist and will call my rep today to have it changed to this. Not a bracelet guy anyways and I might put this on a black isofrane rubber strap.

White dials are always hard to shoot and I bet in real life, it's totally classy especially with the polished accents and hands. This will look good on tan sailcloth straps as well!

It's the darn MT5652 that makes making this and the Pro so difficult to diet. Until they produce a new movement, I think this is what we are stuck with.

I will be buying this for two reasons.

a. I have a BLNR with a black dial, so the white will be super fun.
b. I'm going to put it on an Ericka's Original strap, so the laziness of not fixing the bracelet doesn't preclude me from buying it.

That said, between this and the "BBPRO Polar" that many (myself included) were hoping for, I'd buy the Pro.

I've always salivated over pictures of the rare GMT Master Albinos, and this is somewhat reminiscent. I'm for sure buying unless there is something off in person or Omega releases something better before I get my hands on one.

Why stick with polished hands… should have done a blue dial would have look nicer. Shame.

Need to see this in real life. If badly done, a white dial will make this look like a fisher price watch.

Some interesting releases by Tudor today.

Anyone think the jubilee from the new master chronometer BB will fit the GMT?

You can put an Uncle Seiko bracelet on this watch and I bet it would look great. I had one on last year's GMT, and the look and and finish were great !

Looks good, but would trade the dial for a T fit, slimmer case, and/or jubilee option.

I think this is the BEST alternative to the Exp2 polar as of now. Wonder how many sales will this take away from Rolex for literally half the price with pretty much the same performance (and a full rotating bezel VS Exp2 which is fixed). Not to mention the domed sapphire on the Tudor gives that vintage look....

As someone stated earlier in thread, I’m patiently waiting for new slimmer case profile to rollout through the entire Black Bay line. I’ll grab the next iteration of the GMT when it’s 13.6mm thick. T fit will be a plus too.

I hope they keep the two tone though when they update. That one has really grown on me…

If it’s the same opaline as in the chrono panda, it will look great in person.

If you haven’t seen it, sometimes it’s bright white, sometimes it’s silver…very cool

Big fan! I was close to going for the black version last month on the leather strap but no stock. So this is even better. As others have asked, I wonderer if the T-fit will be a fit?

So I called my rep later afternoon to put my name in....the polar GMT is already picking up huge interest ..actually lots of enquires for the new Tudor releases (more so than Rolex).

Looks like Tudor end of year sales this year will be quite dashing for the brand!

PS: Was told AD's might get it by April or so.

The white dial is beautiful. Unfortunately the thickness, rivets and lack of adjustment in the bracelet are a turn off for me. Too bad. :(
