another Tudor FXD! Incoming!

While waiting for the call from my rolex AD and browsing around I've got a chance to see the FXD in person. I love the story of the FXD and the idea of a fixed lugs. And it's definitely the most comfortable watch I've worn even comparing to the NTTD seamaster. Luckily in Thailand the FXD doesnt seems popular and is readily available at the AD. I've got a chance to try on the black version as well honestly it's a killer but I prefer the OG as I have a few black dial watch. After getting the FXD I tried it on several perlon strap I have and I l'm surprised by the watch's versatility. It's much nicer in person and once plastic wrap is gone.

Now I feel like I need to revamp my collection a bit as this will definitely be my go-to piece so maybe I should consolidate the other piece toward my grail pieces.

I'm not sure if that first person strap is grey or lavender color, but it looks great with that FXD.

I keep waffling between the FXD and regular blue Pelagos...
