Great video. I have owned 2 Rolex GMT’s for years, but always annoyed that they aren’t depth rated to more than 100m. I never dive that deep, but never want a leak. I’ve had the Tudor GMT for about 1 1/2 years, and find I’m not using my Rolex GMT’s. Bravo!
Hi. I have this GMT and yesterday I purchased this NATO strap as I found the steel bracelet heavy and not very comfortable. The new strap has transformed the watch as it is so comfortable and so much lighter. Best £149 I have ever spent!
I just bought this on Saturday. I travel a lot and appreciate the GMT functions and the history of it. I initially wanted the black fabric strap because of the matching colors and I like natos, but went with the leather because it distributes the weight better on my wrist. The fabric is thin and you can feel the top heavy case. In addition, the leather can be dressed up more than the fabric. I absolutely love the watch, it definitely gives you an aura feeling, especially if you’ve done countless hours of research and know you made the right purchase.
Well happy with mine. After 6 months thankfully not experienced any problems with the date wheel or winding. Looks great on the wrist..
fingers crossed for you mate. Gorgeous watch - however some have had the problem not show till 18 months later
@@cheltcanary yeah cheers .. a bit of a concern but still happy.. 👍
We haven't experienced any issues with our Tudor GMT. So far, so good.
Mine has just had a date issue after 18 months 😭 don't wanna send it off as I don't wanna be without it!
Absolutely adore mine, for a medium and up sized wrist it’s a great casual / sports / swimming / travel watch with plenty of presence (advantage of being a little chunky) that can still look classy in the office.
I think your perception of the Tudor GMT is spot on. We'll be reviewing the Tudor and Rolex GMT's back to back very soon, watch this space.
I found the bracelet a little heavy for every day wear. So I did opt as well for the fabric strap. I use the fabric strap like a NATO (do not connect the spring bars). This way, I can change straps much easier. I find the most comfortable straps (for all watches) are the single pass RAF straps, sold as an example by CheapNatoStraps. I like the single wide fabric keeper, great fit. IMO, regular NATOs (double pass) are too thick for this majestic beast.
just purchased one two weeks ago, and still over the moon. Love the steel, am experimenting with rubber and leather (waiting for some OEM Tudor deployment clasps) but would not consider the fabric/nato. But the watch is such is just fabulous. I would never EVER consider a Rolex, but this was a no-brainer.
Good thing I still don’t have enough money for the current GMT. Hopefully a smaller version comes out when I get my watch savings up.
Black Bay GMT in the 58 case would be an instant success I think.
Yes, that would be a great move for Tudor and an instant winner!
Why don’t you have more followers? Love this review great filming
We've only been going for 8 weeks so thank you very much. 👍
No problem, keep it up!!
I’ve got one. Love it. Nearly a perfect watch (a bit on the thick side). I have it on bracelet, which might be why.
Looks absolutely stunning!! Love it on the fabric strap too. My only issue is would be a big big for my wrists. Do you think they will make it with the black bay 58 dimensions I think that would be absolutely killer!
We really hope Tudor do make a GMT based on the Black Bay 58, that would a great watch.
I bought one a little over 2 weeks ago with the steel bracelet. I prefer the steel bracelet. To me it looks better with the bezel colours. I don’t think it is an alternative to the Rolex Pepsi though. If I had spare change right this moment, I’d go for the Batman even at a premium to retail. My other watches are the Rolex GMT 116710LN and the Tudor BB S&G with the leather strap.
Congratulations on your new Tudor GMT and on your existing collection.
In an ideal world you would have the Tudor GMT and the Rolex GMT to get the best of both worlds. Or would a vintage Rolex GMT do the job of both? 🤔
Im finding more and more with rolexes they are a hazard to wear as theives are on the lookout for them, i bought a milgauss 5 years ago for me its become more of an investment than something i feel comfortable wearing these days, its a shame society has gone this way
Great video !!Absolutely love mine, the colours are just perfect.
Thank you for your kind words. We love the colours on the bezel and we think it will get better with age.
I tried the fabric strap and it was disappointing. Chose the metal bracelet and will get a separate Nato to have the option to switch.
good video. Looking for the Rolex Pepsi review that comes next
Looking to get this for Christmas for myself.
After this movie I am ready to buy Tudor s pepsi on this nice strap than wait on Rolex list .
This is exactly what we decided to do.
Awesome Tudor. Been following Tudor when they use to have cross over with Rolex’s parts. You should review the Tudor Tiger with the Cyclopes date.
You should be having way more subscribers
Thank you very much, we only started 8 weeks ago. We're glad you enjoyed the video. 😎
Wonderful review of the Tudor Black Bay GMT "Diet Pepsi". This may be the perfect watch at a great price.
I bought my Tudor gmt as I have always lusted after Rolex gmt, however the prospect of having 3 Rolex watches in my box would make me a Rolex zombie so my choice of Tudor injects more variety to my pieces. I have a policy of 2 per brand and the money saved have been put to work, it’s a no brainier. The quality of the movement is on the par as a Rolex, the price is such a give away with the only downside the chunky case but sits well on my small wrist.
Good video, this watch is best on the leather due to the dimensions. If the date wheel issue did not exist this watch would be sold out everywhere but it does so it's a no from me. I just wear two watches if I need to efficiently track two time zones.
Very good review. Thank you.
I see some Tudor GMTs with a green lume also, has there been an upgrade from Tudor ?
Good review.I do like it on the NATO, that much that i have one on the go.
Great video. The Tudor GMT was one of my favourites and had most wrist time amongst other watches in my collection including Rolex & Omega. It's a beautiful watch and I have several strap options making it one of the most versatile watches I own. Unfortunately I suffered the infamous date wheel issue requiring my watch to be sent off. After doing some research into the defect, it seems that some owners have suffered the same issue twice or even three times. Once I get my watch back, I'll likely sell it and I'll never buy another Tudor. There should be a disclaimer to all potential GMT buyers, that you are purchasing knowing full well that you may suffer the defect at some point during your ownership. Very poor job from Tudor.
Mine too...
Beautiful watch but defective movements
I have 2 Rolex GMT’s. I bought this, because I can dive with this one. That’s a real plus for me. I think it has grown on me.
Yes, it's a great "second" watch if you already have a Rolex GMT. We'll be reviewing the Tudor and Rolex GMT's back to back very soon so watch this space.
Cultivated World, great call! I’m looking forward to that!
Blue lume ?are you sure ?mine is green !
You’ll never see a Pepsi ‘58 the way you think. Rolex won’t have it. Tudor will add a gilt dial, an all black bezel, or any number of left hooks to keep it from being the “Pepsi” in the manner everyone is hoping for. I’m sad about this too.
why is my lume green and not blue?
POOR MANS ROLEX!!! REALLY?!
I tell you what I like about Tudor, it's got so much character and such a great price point for a luxury watch.
It's so much nicer on the fabric strap and alot more comfortable for everyday wear, even though it's a 41m it actually looks alot smaller on the fabric strap.
I would love to see the BB58 against this! Cant wait for the Rolex GMT next week. 👍
I’m afraid this is most definitely the perception out there. However I have a few Rolex watches myself and would definitely buy the Pelagos with that beautiful blue dial!!
@@Watchlover371 Great choice. 👍
Great review on a great piece
Thank you very much, we're glad you enjoyed it.
Very nice
I don't like the Rolex GMT, the bezel numbers are way too large, hours markers too big, and Rolex engraved rehaut makes it look too conspicuous & flamboyant to say the least, it feels like too many things going on there - while the Tudor GMT looks much more redefined and elegant for a watch that is half the price and available at every AD.
Rolex was meant for everyone. but Rolex watches are not going to experience anything anymore. dinner only
no sailing watch no diving etc. tudor is the real watch for every one .
no mention of the infamous date wheel problem? A high percentage failing from days to many months after purchase? No mention at all of Tudor's stance to brush the issue under the carpet? No mention that NOS are sat in shop windows with the problem because Tudor have not effected a recall???
You are absolutely correct.... I'm in when a Class Action Lawsuit in filed on the Tudor Black Bay GMT. Tudor has been selling this watch since 2018 with a known movement defect and continues to sell it. Mine started jumping two days at a time at 6 months and has been at the Rolex Service Center in Dallas since March 15th 2020. The expected repair time is another 8-12 weeks so 5-6 months .
@@TZOID08 sorry to hear - hope it is returned with a new movement that actually works! This is the reason why i wont buy one. However my Pelagos is perfect!
@@cheltcanary I like my Peagos a well.
I put a 50% down payment in Aug '19, received in Dec '19, started date-jumping in March '20, returned for repair, and now it's August '20 and I still don't have it back. Yes, been now one full year hoping to have this watch.
@@davidmacculloch6765 disgraceful service
you must have a fake on if it goes bright blue in the dark
Oops! That must have been a video editing error. It actually glows green.
Poor man can buy a $4,000 watch? lol
Poor man Rolex? Get out of here. Rolex don't make blackbays, vintage watches. As simple
daily drive this bish
Looks ok in the images. But dull and boring looking in reality. Aluminium bezel at this price . Really ! Combine this with a dodgy movement not properly developed before release. Ridiculous height and slab sided badly designed case. Never mind Tudor being made to play the availability game by the owners -Rolex.
