The Tudors stand on their own. I will put any of my Tudors up against ANY of my Rolexes and they are just as nice and in many cases a bit more solid feeling. Get what works for you.

Most of the tudors outside of the panda tudor look a lot like Rolex.

And I also went to an omega store today, it looks like many brands are copying Rolex.

I agree. My black Bay and my Sea-Dweller look almost identical with the exception of the yellow gold versus the white gold markers. However as a brand it can stand on its own is what I meant.

I think Tudor is great but they do look similar to Rolex. Since I own a Rolex sub, gmt, and Daytona, there isn’t much of a point for me. I don’t think I’ll be adding any more sport/ tool watches.

Agreed, that’s why I own a Pelagos. It doesn’t look like anything else.

They have some quirky stuff that scratches a different itch vs my Rolex’s. For instance I just picked up the Black Bay Ceramic and it’s a stunner in person.

You could say it kinda looks like a Smurf. I don’t have a Smurf though and have considered the Pelagos. I really like the blue one.

Yah, that’s what I meant. I feel like “why spend on a Tudor when I can spend on a Rolex” mindset.

The Tudor Panda on the big leather strap is a different story tho. That’s a watch that I’ll wear daily and not give a damn about beating it to death. Almost the same as my Rolex Panda.
