Rolex

42 mm Titanium case, 12, 75 mm high. In house automatic movement with a power reserve of 70 hours. And the good news: It is not, if I got it well, a limited edition. On a blue nylon strap. What do you think? Best, Nicolas ...  

Though I just talked to friend at an AD and she was less encouraging than I'm used to from her! So initial production might not be so large.

I love the lugs. Solid integrated lugs - this is the most assuring configuration. Yet, the gripe is the 200m WR, and the BIdirectional retrograde bezel. Would I get one? I really really don’t know. The lugs are beautiful. It did not evoke the instant “fin... 

Maybe in 40mm and Grade 23 titanium. That’s what I’m holding out for

And least did i know, already seems to be sold out in Switzerland.

Longines (Big Eye)? Longines (Legend Diver No Date)? Omega Speedmaster CK2998 Black / White and/or Blue / White? Rolex Explorer 1 36mm? This is what came to my mind.....

The Omega Seamaster 1948, Jaeger Lecoultre Reverso Tribute Gyroturbillon / MGT Celestial Tourbillon / Gyro 5 in a dream category, the LF Classic Opaline, the Panerai PAM 662... And a very few others.

$3900 vs. $4575. The original is a lot more watch for the money. ...  

They say that the Alfa Romeo 4C is the successor of the Alfa Romeo 33 Stradale! Imagine that!!!!! I love the Stradala, i would hang a poster on every room of that masterpiece.... But then, on the other hand, if you have tried the 4C, you understand what T...  

Not sure what to call it but I hate the square shape of the "endlink", kills the watch for me...

Is it the same movement as the regular pelagos, just sans the date? I’m not a Tudor guy, but figured these would be good questions to ask.

like that Tudor have tried something different with the lugs that I can see actually has a purpose to make the watch tougher, thus supporting its tool watch ethos. Whilst I won’t be jumping from a helicopter in dive gear (per the video on the Tudor site),... 

😐 Anyway I hate nato and I rather get a left pélagos . And anyway the 79090 looks way better 🤓

Love the no date, and the colour. It must be a very comfortable (light) and legible, but as always will have to see it in real. Could also look good on a nice leather Nato for day to day use.

1. The integrated lugs design is not smart move since: - Increases actual thickness of the watch for the thickness of a nato/rubber strap, - Not flexible for a strap variation - Bulky appearance of the watch - no bracelet option 2. The bezel looks very st... 

And the crown, it's back!!!!

Is that a model for the Marine Nationale French Army? If it is so? Why is it being sold to civilians? If it is not? Why the watches are marked with an apparently military code at the back? What does it represent? Anyway, I love the video from Tudor with t... 

No military code then! But a commemorative model, for sure...

Better off buying a bb58.

Great dial and bezel design. Do not like the lugs. Also find that at 42mm a lot of folks with smaller wrists like myself can’t wear. If this was 38-39mm it would’ve been perfect. The vintage case sizing is the best. Deviation from such a size means it wil... 

I'm immediately charmed by this watch and want one... and very much hoping it's a sales dud so that I can get one easily!

It will certainly be gettable with just a *little* patience on my part.

Many brands already forced us to use proprietary bracelet/strap, even an integrated bracelet. But to force us only use nato is simply too much. Shame because the dial and bezel looks quite good, and the no-date thing is a plus. I dislike nato, and no matt... 

No valve, no date, simple dial, simple strap everyone can change without any risk, 70 hrs power reserve, reasonable price. Perfect for holidays and travel. Ordered one.

And with all other Tudors I’ve bought I’ve known straight away. Thanks Nico for the great pictures as always. M.

Look forward to seeing your pictures. M.

Not for me. M.

but I like it. Indeed, it is not perfect but lots that I like: - fixed lugs; different and safer - darker shade of blue; classy - no date of course - thinner - the bezel which has deeper notches and is wider than the case; convenient Where I have some res... 

which is quite tasteful and historically relevant

Its clearly a tool watch! Reminds me a little bit of the PLOPROF and DEEPSEA DEEPBLUE: They are ugly on the surface but damn beautiful down there!

All the models will have MN 22 moving forward. I read that each AD will get one MN 21 this year. If this is accurate, how many Tudor AD’s are there? This will roughly indicate how many MN 21 were made for the new release.

… the special delivery for French Navy personnel. End of order is due on December 15th. Delivery on April 2022 though. Anyway I expect them (and mine) to be MN21 but can’t be 100% sure at this stage (?)

… each batch on limited number, if your order can’t be fullfilled on a peculiar batch, then you have priority for the next one (except for the last round obviously) ...  

I wasn’t aware that the French Navy will also receive this watch. It seems that there’s 150 Tudor AD, so perhaps 150 MN 21, without counting the French Navy allocation.

… but sold to the French Navy personnel at a special price. How many watches I don’t know though.

150 for the 150 AD, and 150 military. That’s a really low number!

… 150 watches will be delivered within the first batch, both are M.N.21. Allocation is nearly complete Afterwards, M.N.22 only

For this reason alone I would be interested in getting mine, and I don´t have any problem if my watch would be marked MN 22 on its back as most of the real military watches will have that marking. I like very much the case back markings by the way. In res...

I hope the true blue color of the new MN21 is less brilliant than it looks in the advertising shots. Cabn´t wait to see it in the metal! Cheers! Abel

Told my AD I was interested after the release and he called Monday saying he got one. I wasn’t sure about it (because of lug to lug) so he held it for me. Tried it on and loved it. The L2L is a non issue IMO. It’s misleading. The visual L2L is quite short... 

If it’s true that MN21 is - 150 pieces, a non limited release is really a small number! Very collectible!

I was hoping that the L2L measurement was misleading (like it is on my Panerai Submersible). Am VERY eager to get my hands on this one. Congratulations!

Enjoy it so much and in the best of good health! Cheers! Abel

I had already contacted my AD but when I saw that it is not as vivid as in the press pictures I withdrew my order immediately ;-)

... thing we intend to purchase) in the metal. And if possible to try it on the wrist as well. Have a nice weekend!! Best, Abel

Good to know. There’s still hope for the MN 21.
