Went in to buy the BB pro, walked out with the BB GMT. Just something about the GMT that makes it extra special. In the year that I've had it, its seen all kinds of action from rugged hikes, swims/dives, air travel and so forth! really a hardy watch and keeps excellent time (+0.25/day)
i love the quality of your vdo: calm voice, slow camera movement, clear pictures without fast cutting and…you focused on the watches, without to show up yourself! i enjoyed watching and looking forward to see more of your reviews. thank you so much. subcribed!
I’m sporting my Tudor BB GMT on jubilee bracelet and it wears and fits perfectly. Definitely not heavy at all. I have a 7.25 inch wrist. I dig the styling since it harks back to the early day GMTs when pan am pilots rocked them…styling w bang for your buck it’s a no brainer…to each their own. Cheers!
Great review. I went to try the GMT and the pro both on stainless bracelets yesterday. I found the both watches to be very comfortable and not at all too big or heavy for my just under 7inch wrist. I went with the pro eventually as I realised the reason I don’t own a watch with a Pepsi bezel is because I don’t like them 😂 So after the staff plied my wife and myself with champagne for an hour while I made my decision 😝 I left the shop with a pro on my wrist. I absolutely love the watch I personally think it’s very classy yet understated a real tool watch that can be worn all day everyday for any occasion. I don’t think it’s too thick, in fact my wife could get away with wearing the pro and her wrists are tiny little 5 inch wrists. The only things I wish was different about the watch is the bloody price! People shouldn’t be put off these watch’s just try them on your wrist. They wear beautifully.
Dude, keep up the awesome work, I watch almost every reviewer on UA-cam and you have become #1 in my book, which is the only one that matters.....probably
Agree that an Easy link extension would transform the GMT. Fortunately, Steel Reef makes a great one. Looks OEM, works great. Not quite a T-Fit, but very useful. Worth checking out.
Always enjoy your videos. They’re honest. They’re factual. They’re funny. Now, I’ve owned (and worn for years) three of the four watches shown in this video. The one I haven’t owned (or worn) is the BB Pro 39mm. I sold my Rolex Explorer II and my Rolex GMT II Batman, and went with the Tudor GMT. I was tempted by the BB Pro when it cam out, but passed. Here’s why: I am a professional time zone changer (I’m an airline pilot), and so I find a real use for these “traveler” GMT movements, but I have found that I prefer (a lot) having the rotating bezel. The rotating bezel helps you quickly look at other time zones, and if you can’t remember which time zone you’ve set the local hour hand to, then you just rotate the bezel pip back to 12, see what time UTC/GMT/Zulu time is, and then recalculate for the time zone you want shown on the main dial (local hour hand). I’m telling you; when fly all around the world, crossing zone after zone and the International Date Line, and you can’t remember whether the Sun is up or down, the rotating bezel make A LOT of difference. Oh, and why the Tudor GMT over the Rolex GMT? Price, theft issues, prefer old school looks of the aluminum bezel. I did remove the Tudor bracelet, and wear the Tudor GMT on the Crown & Buckle Chevron NATO (single pass and adjustable length). Phew! That was a lot of typing.
I've owned the GMT for a little over a year and love it. I didn't like the bracelet that it came with, felt chunky/not much of a taper and I couldn't get the right fit because the bracelet doesn't allow for much adjustment.. Got a Forstner Model O which fits it perfectly, has great taper and the bracelet has a stretch link and also way more holes in it for more smaller adjustments. I got to try the Pro when it came out and while it's a nice watch, it didn't sing to me. I love the color on the GMT bezel and would choose it over the Pro, if I want purchasing now. Great review!
I know exactly what you mean! I couldn’t get a good fit with my BB58. I even got an Uncle Seiko half-link! The scissor arms are too long, & the link meeting the clasp on the 6-o’clock side doesn’t articulate much. The clasp length is effectively over 50mm! I’ve got my BB58 on the Forstner “O”, and while the quality isn’t as good as the Tudor bracelet, the fit is much better!
@@chriscon8463 I agree, quality isn't the same but the fit is perfect and I'll take that. I've also just tried their Model J the Jubilee and it's a nice fit as well. I grabbed it so I can get a different look every now and then.
Had a BB GMT for a while - good proportions and did not feel overly thick on my 6.75 inch wrist. Sold it, as it felt like a discount Rolex Pepsi, but aesthetically not as appealing. The BB pro is a great enthusiast watch, and Rolex is unlikely to ever do a similar reissue. No role in my personal collection, but I'm glad it exists.
Very well written script. kudos !! I ended up getting a BB GMT primarily because I like the colors. And as a bouns, got special treatment in a few establishments as the door people thought I was wearing an older Rolex. Im not complaining....
I’m biased as a GMT owner but for me it’s so underrated (pre-owned price). I’ve owned since 2019, had the date issue early on but local AD were great and got it sorted and no issues since. Wear it nearly everyday over my 124270 & BB Harrods.
I have both and love them both. Definitely different enough to have room in any collection. I really did t want to like the Pro. Too small, too thick. Fixed bezel. Tried it on once and it was over. Found a used/unworn example and it was a no brained. Boom. Done.
I was concerned about the thickness of the BBP and other proportions until I turned it on. After purchasing it (never going to get a 1655!) I put a caliper on it and my 16600 Sea-Dweller. They are the same thickness and are so close in every other proportion. Actually, the dial is noticeably bigger on the BBP. The 16600 and the BBP get to the thickness. Differently, the BBP is a slab-sided case, for sure. After a year plus with the BBP I still really enjoy the watch!
I like the box analogy. I’m pretty hooked on the pro, however I tried on the Longines GMT you recently reviewed and can really see myself buying that one. (My wrist is the same size as yours)
Has tudor fixed their QC? 5 years ago I had to return a north flag for QC issues, dust in the dial. Then I considered a black bay, again dust in dial. I looked at a pelagos, hour markers misaligned. I ended up with a Seamaster, which I still love.
Thank you for the review. I’m surprised that no one mentioned the bezel clicking on the GMT. I own G&S version of GMT. The brushed gold, the rivets, the clicking bezel, the heft and thickness, all that makes my Tudor GMT G&S so perfect. If you don’t mind, please review that watch.
I have the GMT, bought it after many months of convincing myself it wasn’t for me - I was wrong. It’s probably just to big for me, I don’t like the clasp, it is heavy and it’ll never see anymore action than a hotel swimming pool BUT… I love it !!! It’s a complete outlier in my collection, I like small watches but this one suits being big. It’s a proper old school diver and it should be built like a tank. If you thinks it’s too big for you I urge you to go and try one on, that’ll convince you to go for it.
I like all sorts of GMTs, I enjoyed your great video and monologue as usual. Thank you! I know it's a discontinued piece, but since you mentioned it, it would be great to hear, one day, your point on the cool, divisive and historical North Flag.
I bought the Tudor GMT about 15 months ago and it’s been fantastic. Very comfortable and accurate , just enjoyable to wear. In recent weeks I bought a Rolex Submariner no date 2022 release and it’s beautiful and a bit slimmer by comparison and very comfortable also. I have to say that the first thing I felt , having never actually trying on the submariner before purchase, was just how good the Tudor is by comparison considering the large price discrepancy. It’s beautifully made and feels like a luxury item. Don’t be out off by the faux rivets on the bracelet of the GMT. The wearer can’t see them in use .
I like the slimmer GMT hand of the BBGMT. It makes the dial look cleaner. The BBPro’s dial is more cluttered to me, as the GMT hand is almost as big as the hour hand.
Both watches are absolutely beautiful! It just depends on which bezel you like better. I received the BBGMT "Pepsi" as a gift and I love it, but That GMTPro looks seriously GOOD. I might buy one for my son just so he can experience one of these great Tudor GMTs but we don't have the exact same watch. The best part is I can actuall do that with Tudor.....no way I can walk into a Rolex AD and say , "Yeah.....let me have a GMT Master II and while your back there, grab an Explorer II to go with it!"
Hi, I really enjoyed the video really attention and presuate it. Become a real fan of you and Tudor. One question tough, what is your wrist size? Thanks.
I think you nailed it by saying a collection could have both! I bought the GMT 3 years ago and still love it. Fantastic quality movement, clicks of the bezel, and overall just a beast. The bracelet could be better. I often use third-party bracelets or natos. Tudor’s new “T-fit” bracelet really is spectacular after having tried it on a new Pelagos. It is a thick watch. But I think the case beveling helps, I’ve never felt it awkward even when wearing long sleeve shirts.
The BB pro is a fantastic watch it's not too thick and if the t fit is sized correctly is a joy , great daily driver I wear mine every day and it has helped to thin the collection out.
I was this close to buying the steel and gold version of the BBGMT. 6.5" wrists and it was fine. I used to get hung up watch sizing until I started trying on everything that even remotely interested me. 44mm Speedmaster Racing? Loved it. A watch is more than its measurements.
Came across your channel after binging on 114270 videos to feel better about getting on on the secondary market and subbed. Love the cinematography, quality of video and production, and above all the dry humor. Looking forward to more content! Also I prefer the BBPro, I do enjoy how it hearkens back to the old 1655, as opposed to the GMT which kind of just looks like a Black Bay with GMT and a Pepsi bezel. But you are right, the GMT feels better proportioned than the Pro by virtue of its size. Being the smaller diameter of the two, the Pro just feels even chonkier with that 15mm thiccccness (that's 4 c's). Despite that I'd still probably go for the Pro, I just like how it looks more and I can bear with the weight/size.
I love Tudor and tell anyone that asks for advice on a first (and maybe only) watch to get one. In fact, my girlfriend bought the BB36 because of it. That said, for myself I just waited a year and used the extra time to save up for my Rolex Polar Explorer II instead.
Is it just me, or was anyone else confused by the intro song. After thinking hard which watch videos I've heard it before I remembered. Andrew Morgan (AKA talking hands from Watchfinder) uses the same song on his private channel. Great video either way!
As owner of a gmt I like it the most than a pro ,to me the pro is a rough watch compared to the more refined GMT even if big and heavy on my wrist compared to a Rolex… performance are stunning. Great video!
I've had the BB GMT for about a year now and love it. I can wear it like a beater unlike IF I had the Rolex GMT. The BB Pro doesn't do anything for me.
You, sir, were on fire on this one. The, you'll need a tool, like guys that only wear rolexs, got me. Tried on the 41 when it came out, the slab sides wear look and wear top heavy but love the pepsi. I guess rolex finally fixed the date wheel issue for Tudor?
Really threw me with that Andrew Morgan Watches intro music. It put me in mind of a powerfully erotic hybrid of the two best creators in the ‘disembodied hands handling timepieces’ genre of UA-cam videos.
Great releases by Tudor. I remember when the GMT came out and it had its own in house movement it kind of took the watch community by storm. Personally I prefer the GMT however neither really fit me so give me that $4000 cheque
great video, crazy actually that now with this craze for integrated bracelets. The North flag would be a hit. These GMTs are great watches, wish the "pro" was a little bigger in diameter to the "GMT". I like the larger size.
Just make sure you judge these two timepieces on their own merits, they are both fabulous. However, if you are buying one of these with the intent to assuage an inability (either economical or market driven) to purchase a long sought after GMT Master II or Exp II....don't. Keep saving and/or keep waiting. These Tudors are not calamine lotion, they won't make an itch go away.
I am totally confused. I bought the BLACK BAY GMT S&G for MSRP $5,850 (M79833MN-0001). The same GMT you are showing with black dial (steel & gold). Is this watch worth way more than the GMT you are showing. I am feeling like I got taken. When I bought it in January, I was told there is no discount. Does Tudor discount??
The gold in the watch is the reason for the price difference. You probably wont get any discount at an AD but you probably can get it at a grey dealer.
@@FadeToBlack2181 Thanks for the answer. I do love the watch. My first luxury purchase. Then I bought the TAG Carrera Day/Date. Black dial. I get complements on both watches. But saw both watches on an online site for $1,000 less for each watch. Not pre-owned. I called & they do have both the the advertised price. But not an AD.
You forget to give the mechanical part on the 24 hours .. external part. 41 mm gives you more possibilities than the small one which is good in a smaller dimension. It is not possible for travelers to have three true GMTs for the PRO but it has 41mm BB. You doesn't seem to have full insight technically. Today I have a BBSteel 41mm with included date, great Tudor. The new GMT would suit me very well and is what I want and in size and like my BB Steel. 41mm suits me fine but without three GMT "times" when traveling. It can only 41mm technically because you can turn the outer ring with the 24 hours, PRO doesn't fix it 💛. This is not something I am addressing to Tudor, but to you who have great insights that GMT watches have technical both at the level of the watch but also external technical solutions. Feel free to answer me if I'm wrong and that I couldn't get it in your otherwise pretty good 👍🏽 about the watches. Rolex has these two different GMT layouts as well.
@@marshhancock81 congrats dude. Not everyone has that size of wrist. A 39mm watch is supposed to appeal to people with smaller wrists and clearly this one failed.
Good review! I found the same when comparing both in a Tudor boutique: the GMT has the better proportions. It looks very good on a brown leather strap. Although they are all out of reach anyway, I prefer the aluminium bezel and its shade of blue and red to the ceramic colours of the Rolex. So ideally I would want a vintage Rolex GMT 😂
the fixed bezel of the Pro makes it ''heavy duty'' . It would suit a mountaineer/hiker/explorer better . The Pepsi GMT feels more suitable for the traveler/pilot/captain which demand less rigitity
@@YoureTerrific got BBP meself, but I'll be keeping it on the bracelet for fear of its "top-heaviness" without it. Top-heaviness? Enthickened? Ah, whatever. Definitely glad to see the T-fit clasp on its bracelet.
At this point, Evan’s 7-INCH WRIST has taken on an entire character arc. It deserves a feature film!

Congrats on the ticket! Shoulda kept both, though. 😉
If you travel and work with people in other time zones, the moveable bezel on the GMT allows you to track one more time zone.

I've had the BB GMT for about a year now and love it. I can wear it like a beater unlike IF I had the Rolex GMT. The BB Pro doesn't do anything for me.
What if tudor launched a bb gmt on a 39 mm size with a jubilee bracelet ?
As a once owner of both the Pro has been sold and the GMT Pepsi is my every day watch.
Great as always! Living in history doesn’t make you historical, but maybe playing some role in this mechanical watch revival (or something) does. ;)
But having the okayest videos on UA-cam does make you historical.
@@YoureTerrific true, dat.
Why does the gmt hand extend beyond the minute track ?
Because with the GMT hand, you read the 24-Hour marks on the bezel so it make sense for the GMT hand to be as close to the bezel numbers as possible
I love the jumping date feature of the GMT.
You, sir, were on fire on this one. The, you'll need a tool, like guys that only wear rolexs, got me.
Tried on the 41 when it came out, the slab sides wear look and wear top heavy but love the pepsi.
I guess rolex finally fixed the date wheel issue for Tudor?
Another great review. Don’t know if you realized that you are using the same music as Andrew Morgan’s Talking Hands channel.
What a terrific review...and you're quite funny too 😄 I kinda love the GMT but the Pro looks absolutely smashing too. Hate those rivets.
The humor in this video hits.
SEVEN! INCH! WRIST! - MADE MY DAY!🤣🤣🤣
what is the car currently on your wrist?
I’d take the GMT over the pro aesthetically for me it just looks right.
Please can u do review of “Ball” brand
Really threw me with that Andrew Morgan Watches intro music. It put me in mind of a powerfully erotic hybrid of the two best creators in the ‘disembodied hands handling timepieces’ genre of UA-cam videos.
Great releases by Tudor. I remember when the GMT came out and it had its own in house movement it kind of took the watch community by storm. Personally I prefer the GMT however neither really fit me so give me that $4000 cheque
great video, crazy actually that now with this craze for integrated bracelets. The North flag would be a hit. These GMTs are great watches, wish the "pro" was a little bigger in diameter to the "GMT". I like the larger size.
After 5 months Pro or GMT?
Just make sure you judge these two timepieces on their own merits, they are both fabulous. However, if you are buying one of these with the intent to assuage an inability (either economical or market driven) to purchase a long sought after GMT Master II or Exp II....don't. Keep saving and/or keep waiting. These Tudors are not calamine lotion, they won't make an itch go away.
EVERYONE talks/talked about the thickness of the BB Pro! 3:52
I lost it on the “seven inch wrist” edit 😂
Dude your wrist size bits get me every time😂😂
What size are you again?
No idea
I am totally confused. I bought the BLACK BAY GMT S&G for MSRP $5,850 (M79833MN-0001). The same GMT you are showing with black dial (steel & gold). Is this watch worth way more than the GMT you are showing. I am feeling like I got taken. When I bought it in January, I was told there is no discount. Does Tudor discount??
The gold in the watch is the reason for the price difference. You probably wont get any discount at an AD but you probably can get it at a grey dealer.
@@FadeToBlack2181 Thanks for the answer. I do love the watch. My first luxury purchase. Then I bought the TAG Carrera Day/Date. Black dial. I get complements on both watches. But saw both watches on an online site for $1,000 less for each watch. Not pre-owned. I called & they do have both the the advertised price. But not an AD.
@Barry L i have that exact watch fot the exact price. Gold makes the difference. Gold bezel and gold crown and rest of the bracelet is gold plated.
Was it a happy accident, or was it on purpose to use the intro music that the Watchfinder Watch Hands guy uses on his channel?
They both look great on you…. What’s your wrist size? 😉
You forget to give the mechanical part on the 24 hours .. external part. 41 mm gives you more possibilities than the small one which is good in a smaller dimension. It is not possible for travelers to have three true GMTs for the PRO but it has 41mm BB. You doesn't seem to have full insight technically. Today I have a BBSteel 41mm with included date, great Tudor. The new GMT would suit me very well and is what I want and in size and like my BB Steel. 41mm suits me fine but without three GMT "times" when traveling. It can only 41mm technically because you can turn the outer ring with the 24 hours, PRO doesn't fix it 💛. This is not something I am addressing to Tudor, but to you who have great insights that GMT watches have technical both at the level of the watch but also external technical solutions. Feel free to answer me if I'm wrong and that I couldn't get it in your otherwise pretty good 👍🏽 about the watches. Rolex has these two different GMT layouts as well.
I love my gmt “Pepsi!” Much better than my breitling super ocean 42.. great quality!
If price and *weight* was not a concern, I woud pick the GMT. It's just on the top end of my wearability and I love the vintage pepsi style.
Cool! What size is your wrist?
Not sure
How is it ok for a 39mm watch to be 15mm thick?
Preach brother
Truly baffling
they aren't really that thick, they're 12.7mm without the high domed crystal
Non-issue with a 7.5 in. Wrist. Extremely comfortable with the T-fit clasp.
@@marshhancock81 congrats dude. Not everyone has that size of wrist. A 39mm watch is supposed to appeal to people with smaller wrists and clearly this one failed.
Good review! I found the same when comparing both in a Tudor boutique: the GMT has the better proportions. It looks very good on a brown leather strap. Although they are all out of reach anyway, I prefer the aluminium bezel and its shade of blue and red to the ceramic colours of the Rolex. So ideally I would want a vintage Rolex GMT 😂
I’ve a BB all steel that looks almost exactly the same as the pro minus the gmt.
I’d have the Pepsi all day.
Great video as always. Thank you.
I’m curious, where do you acquire your Explorer II?
Maybe 6 years ago from Govberg, I think.
the fixed bezel of the Pro makes it ''heavy duty'' . It would suit a mountaineer/hiker/explorer better . The Pepsi GMT feels more suitable for the traveler/pilot/captain which demand less rigitity
I think wearing the Ploprof is messing with his take on case thickness in this review.
That's the point. If I can wear a Ploprof comfortably, all the whiny boys can wear a Black Bay Pro or GMT comfortably.
Don't think so! Own one, Evan's responsible, and love it. And also a bunch of much thinner watches. On most Tudor's I dislike the thickness.
@@YoureTerrific got BBP meself, but I'll be keeping it on the bracelet for fear of its "top-heaviness" without it.
Top-heaviness? Enthickened? Ah, whatever. Definitely glad to see the T-fit clasp on its bracelet.
Great video. I’d take both minus the bracelets. Those I could do without.
GMT is more functional it can keep track of 1 extra timezone cus of the bezel
Fun fact : The Pro’s female endlink does not drop straight down
Another fantastic video 👏
Tudor Black Bay GMT for me definitely.
