    The blue tone on Tudor is just so hard to beat

    I much prefer the look of the Seiko. Not wild about the snowflake handset and the faux rivets. Factor in price, and the Seiko wins in my book.

    No one beats Seiko on dials! I prefer the dimensions, the minute markers on the Seiko bezel, the drilled lugs and the way the lugs turn down. The Seiko is more of a tool watch while the Tudor looks dressier. I would rank the Tudor movement as better than the Seiko 6R35. Both are great watches!

    • @LosEblos
      @LosEblos 4 місяці тому +1

      Why do you rank the Tudor movement better? Even the cheaper Seiko Movements of the 4R line realize the same accuracy of the 6R movements I am owning and wearing. +/-3 Seconds per day are the reality. I am very new to watches, but this is the major point, I don't get so far. Just because Seiko specifies a larger accuracy tolerance range in the spec sheet - for me - that doesn't make it a worse movement. I would be very very interested in the technical aspects, which in my opinion should be the arguments to compare the quality of movements.

    • @LosEblos
      @LosEblos 4 місяці тому

      Please don't missunderstand... I only have my difficulties in the established behaviour of doing the conclusion, that a higher price MUST result in better quality in the movement. Perhaps, it's like that... but it is not explained on technical facts most of the time. So what do I have to expect from the movement in the Tudor, that the Seiko 6R will not deliver?

    • @TheBimmer74
      @TheBimmer74 4 місяці тому

      ​@@LosEblosit is based upon my own experience with reliability. The 4R movements are super reliable but not so with the 6R. That is why I will never buy a 6R on the grey market...only from an AD. The Seiko movements can be regulated to achieve great accuracy but Seiko watches under $2000 are not so well regulated. Tudor movements are regulated much better at the factory but of course this is reflected in the price.

    • @LosEblos
      @LosEblos 4 місяці тому +1

      @@TheBimmer74 Well, then I was lucky to have 4R and 6R with good factory side regulation. But, as it can be adjusted afterwards... why is it a quality concern? How often can a watch professional put hands on it, for 2500 bucks price diff :-D Okay, that was not fair. But the question still remains. Where is the diff in quality? Nobody tells about. Does somebody know?

    I’ve owned the SBDC101 (JDM variant of the popular SPB143). I currently own the Tudor BB54. Tudor’s black bay divers are superior in every metric, and considering the price difference, it better be. I love the dial and bezel on these Seiko divers, but the bracelets, movements, clasps, and end-link fitment to the case are subpar. Are also dislike the hardened coating; makes the Seiko diver look dull. Crowns are also terrible. They lack clutches. Gritty and wobbly. And while it doesn’t bother me, it’s not signed.

      Quick answer from an owner of a Seiko with the movement 6R 35: all prices above $300 for a very unreliable piece, like this one with that movement Simply dont worth it ! So Even if you’re talking about twice the price of the cycle, you cannot even compare as I said from an owner of a SPB143… THIS MOVEMENT IS 💩

    Tudor is the best value in the entry luxury watch market. Its popularity has certainly made it more ubiquitous than exclusive but it still one of my favorite pieces in this blue hue. I own many seikos in addition to Tudor, Rolex and Omega…Tudor hits the mark for me. Design, fit and finish, movement, and price.

    Wear the Tudor for a daily reminder that life didn't turn out as hoped, and you wish you owned a submariner, but settled for in the in-house cheaper chunkier homage version. Or buy a Seiko that has its own heritage, for a third of the price. Seiko wins hands down.

    I own both watches. The Seiko has a lovely dial, but unfortunately, it has a cheap movement and is too thick for everyday wear. Additionally, the crown, bracelet, and bezel action are miles away from the Tudor's quality. Naturally, there's a price difference between the two.
