Well, Nicolas,

I have had my BB GMT about 6 months. My other watches are time only, this was my first GMT, and it is a gem. The size is fine; the only qualm some may have is with the case thickness, not the diameter. But the wrist presence if anything emphasizes its sporty nature, as does the 200m WR. To me, it is more important that the lugs nicely taper and the case proportions are harmonious, something that the Rolex maxi-cases are not.


Your last comment touches on a chord about which I have been musing since first seeing the BB58 in the flesh for the first time 2 months ago... I really liked the '58, but as I told the AD at the time, being so close to BW2019, and hoping for the Tudor as described on my recently posted wish list thread, why would I buy the '58 at this juncture before seeing what novelty(ies) Tudor is presenting now in just one week?

Be well. Marc

It took me almost one year to see the Tudor Black Bay GMT in the real! It was mounted on the bracelet, which looks really nice in this combination. I liked the watch a lot when I saw the first official pictures. I just wondered if it was not too big nor t...

I was thinking a live shot was here! Good to read your confirmation. I have not seen one live yet, I hope later this year some traveling will allow me to populate watch shops! Been too long for me.

Waiting for your

I had the opportunity to see the watch at the local launch. The watch looks neat. As the owner of two Tudor watches, I found that the deployment clasps are the best. My North Flag chronometer runs at +1.5 seconds/day reliably. As good as Rolex today. In g... 

Not sure about that

Tudor seems to be quite independent. I'm waiting a couple of years?

www.watchprosite.com I can only say I do prefer the Tudor because of the size ( its a little bit bigger and I do prefer 40-42 mm), because of the bracelet t(not a huge jubilee fan), the bevelled cade, matte instead of glossy having no cyclops on ...
