Rolex

Tudor Black Bay GMT: 41 mm case, in house movement, aluminium insert. Available on a riveted lookalike steel bracelet. Rolex GMT MASTER Pepsi, on Jubilé bracelet, steel, 40 mm case, ceramic bezel. I cannot imagine I would one day, type these words: Which ...  

Rolex wins by a mile and a half. that bezel is a killer and new jubilee bracelet is very nice looking as well. just not feeling the Tudor here for some reason. strikes me a touch flat in the look. but perhaps I need to see one in the real to form a real o... 

the lustrous look of Rolex wins out, especially versus it’s little sibling

...  

but would in the end go with the "original" as the hands are more consistent with the historic pieces and more to my liking, but I agree, tough call.

Case, bezel, crown, I choose Tudor. Dials are about a wash, the oversized Rolex date is a detail I have never enjoyed, but I do prefer the Rolex minute track pushed outward. I won't buy either, because I just don't care for the Tudor hands, and there is t... 

I've Had a red black bay and Sold it after a few months. While I loved the look of it when looking directly from above, I soon realised that I didn't like at all its "bulky" Look from the Side. If the GMT has the Same "bulky" case, I Most definitly prefer... 

... the Rolex looks totally different than the photoshopped catalogue picture. The real color hue of the GMT Master bezel is a massive turn off to me. So for that reason I‘d go for the Tudor without hesitation between those two. Cheers Henrik

As mentionned before the color of the bezel on the Rolex are very different in real, going from pinkish to purple.

Whilst I like the Tudor hands normally this watch is a couple of snowflakes too far for me and although I don’t know the comparative thickness of the two watches I find the Black Bay looks too thick for me. Regards Kev.

the Rolex is more luxury living, it’s not a tool watch That’s if you can get one It’s true rival is the s/s Sky Dweller in many respects The Tudorwatch is pure tool watch, with Vintage heritage albeit from the big brother For me its hard to say, jeans and...

The point is, for one Rolex GMT you get two Tudor GMT. So the question is, do you like two Tudor GMT, or one Rolex GMT. Tudor Black Bay are fantastic watches, but a Rolex GMT is Rolex. Best Walter

Based on the following factors: 1. The Tudor is slightly larger and a lot thicker than the Rolex making it for me, less wearable. 2. The Jubilee bracelet on the Rolex although not popular with everyone, is more comfortable than the Tudor. 3. The Rolex has... 

I should have just said thicker (something about the 14mm height of the Tudor bothers me! lol)

as you are the expert on all things relating to watches. The Tudor is just too thick which is why the Tudor 58 is such a huge step forward for Tudor with its slimmer case and 2mm smaller size.

I would buy the Tudor 58 and the Rolex Pepsi! The complete sports watch set!

I am not a Rolex man at all but for the first time ever, they have a chance to convert me to buy a Rolex but I guess they have such a huge clientele, they do not really need another convert!

In Malaysia, they are refusing to even put me on the list unless I buy another watch of a superior value. In the UK, they are not even taking names so I have no idea how I am ever going to get one even in 3 years time but I am more patient than most so I ... 

Mind you the steel Daytona is still a tough one to get and always will be I guess.

For myself the main no-go for Rolex is the bezel: too much wide and shiny with a quite fat font for numbers. Apart that, 2 great watches, one from a surprising brand, the other... less surprising. Best, massi

I'm not a huge fan of the faux vintage genre. Tribute piece, if done faithfully, is sometimes another story.

Hi Prefer the more subdued bezel of Tudor & as I'm not a fan of bracelets again that is another plus. Still not wholly enthusiastic about crown tube on the Tudor, prefer the crown guards of the Rolex. On balance it's still the Tudor though Cheers JML

Prefer the Rolex hands but the whole watch has become too bling for me especially with the jubilee strap. Tudor case a bit thick. Looking forward to seeing the Tudor 58 in the flesh with the slimmer case.

When Tudor are trying to be Tudor, I think it works really well. But when Tudor are trying to be Rolex, it fails. Like the old saying...when Lion and Lamb go for dinner, only one brings the mint sauce.

If the competition was between the Tudor and the earlier versions of the Rolex Ceramic GMT, then the Tudor would win by a landslide.

sorry but can't choose .. BOTH

If not, Rolex for me. Their quality is King. Rgds Raymond

The Rolex is not really red and the Tudor is not really blue. But maybe in metal they look better?

If the Rolex actually looked like the picture that you posted in real life, it would have been the winner by a mile. But as others have mentioned the bezel is actually purplish and dull, way less appealing than the old aluminum versions (or Tudor's).

and Tudor is on order. When possible, I'll order also the new Rolex because of the great new movement. Best, Kari

The Rolex watch is simply made better. The color of the bezel on the Tudor seemed a bit dull to me, while the Rolex one is pretty much the same as the current GMT. Not sure why people say the color in life is different? Maybe because of the weird lighting... 

- Tudor has a slimmer bezel with thin font which i prefer and it is less shiny - dont like a cyclops - Tudor also looks good on leather strap ! that ceramic bezel will not match a leather strap i think. - Tudor makes now what Rolex used to make, a no fril... 

If both said Rolex, what would the results be : ) !!! I go for Tudor. I haven't seen the dimensions in persons, but in pictures, I definitely prefer it.

prob will go with a leather strap to tone down the bling..but I am a sucker for ceramic bezels...

just to be more easy to look and compare

Tudor is more fine and elegant power. Rolex is macho luxo

I hope Tudor color is accurate

I have never liked the Rolex maxi-cases. So the Rolex case thickness, assuming same as other GMT Master II is 12.4mm, as compared to Tudor BB GMT 14.3. The 2mm thinner case is the only aspect of the Rolex which is preferable. Both movements are superb wit... 

The numerals are too big on all variants. The Tudor is my best of the two because it is more restrained in style and delivery, less polishing, cleaner bezel and no lump over the date Tim

I like both watches, but I would buy none. I'll start with the Tudor: Too thick, a bit on the large size for me, and I'm not sure about the hands. Let's wait to see it live. As for the Rolex: Same issue as with all the models with those too wide lugs, and... 

I will start with the Tudor Black Bay GMT, that's the onde which convinces me the most. Then study the Rolex GMT MASTER a bit more... Un abrazo, Amigo. Nicolas

The perceived and actual quality, the movement features, the finishes... but they don't have the same price... I will come back to these watches with a different angle. Fx

Can't wait til it is on my wrist. The jubilee was a fantastic touch and brings me back to my 16750 days. So for me the new Rolex is a winner all the way around!

I would love it even more with a small rose and no snowflake hands

No message body

Even though the Tudor GMT has got very valid merits. On the Tudor, the GMT concept and the design consistency of the GMT and second hands against hour and minute hands are a plus for me. Even though it was visually odd at first, I would tend to think an a...
