Big, big fan! I’m shocked that they launched in Pepsi colors this year too. Didn’t see that coming in a million years!

Year of the Pepsi!

Tudor going for the vintagers who have been out priced on the old Rolex.

Thats a lot of watch for $3900.....great power reserve and fabric strap included.
Great value in that package!

I am in the same camp......more excited to see this watch in person than the Rolex GMT Pepsi on Jub.

I agree. The watch will look amazing on a two-stitch strap, plus the price point, plus actual availability (keeping aside that there might actually be a rush in the first weeks). Tudor really set an exclamation mark with this one.

Guys, do you think there will be terrible availability issues with this model? Or will it be more accessible than its Rolex counterpart???

This is very nice. I like the bracelet a lot...just wish it had lug holes, then it would have been perfect.

WOW, looks fantastic. A great alternative to the new Pepsi - a poor man's version.

I think it's still too big and probably too thick for my tastes. Need to try it on though.
The new Fifty Eight seems to have everything going for it though

The Rolex Pepsi will be inaccessable to mere mortal a la Daytona, SD50 etc.

The Tudor version gives an affordable, accessible model for the rest of us. I think stock levels will be pretty good. Tudor are trying to capture the market at this price level and Rolex-style shortages would harm that strategy.

Wasn't going to but another watch this year but the BB GMT and 58 are sorely tempting me.

Already been on the phone to get name on list for the GMT. Not keen on bracelet and it’ll go straight onto a B&S strap

Beautiful. I wonder if it is as thick as the in-house BB? I prefer the slimmer case of the Rose ETA.

Tudor GMT is nice. Wish the numbers on the insert weren't so skinny, though...

Thicker, sits taller with concave back. Rosedials still for the win.
