    I've had my Tudor for a year and three months, and it's my everyday watch everywhere I go. I don't know why I love it so much, maybe because of the color(Milk White), which matches everything I wear.
    My Rolex GMT was usually inside the drawer because I stopped using it at this time.

    I have the Tudor and I absolutely love it. It's one of my most favorite watches. Nothing I would change about it except maybe the thickness. I like the weight of it; it feels really good. It's a great value.

    I have the exact Tudor for about a year. It’s the most expensive watch I own by a large margin. I just can’t justify a Rolex myself, they have gotten too expensive for me personally. I love the Tudor, and it keeps time +1s a day, which is amazing. My only complaint is what you mentioned about legibility. My eyes aren’t what they used to be and it takes more than a glance to tell the time without readers. But, it is absolutely gorgeous, very classy. It and fits me no problem at all, but I’m taller than average

    A couple of years from now I’ll turn back Rolex and start to collecting them again. I have owned 2 vintage Rolex, a Cellini, and a modern Datejust. I’ll top my collection off with a few Rolex later. Right now I am loving my Tudors, especially the most recent ones. I really do enjoy them and I don’t worry about them. I just put them on and go. Great watches.

      @MDSkai 6 місяців тому +2

      I personally love GMTs for no reason at all. I don’t even travel much nor keep track of timezones. I just love the look of an extra pop of color or special hand. They all have enough water resistance for me. Im more likely to need a gmt than 600m of water resistance or a chronograph function, so why not get the extra aesthetics and function out of it..maybe im weird

      I love GMT watches! In my finance and cybersecurity roles, I can effortlessly keep track of the USA, London, and Beijing time zones with just a quick glance-it's ideal! That’s one of the reasons I rely on them. If you don’t travel or work with multiple time zones, though, you’re probably just fine without one.

    For me:
    GMT Master II > BB GMT
    BB58 > Submariner
    As you mentioned the Tudor is quite thick and the proportions of the text and indexes are a bit weird. The Rolex water resistance is a bit disappointing since it looks exactly like the submariner.

    The GMT II ceramic has a triplock crown - same as the Subs and Dwellers. The caseback of a sub is thicker but if you’re subjecting your watch to pressures at depths where a Sub thickness caseback is needed then wear a dive watch. BTW a marine biologist & Rolex ambassador Sylvia Earle wears a Lady DateJust diving so a GMT II Ceramic (which has a triplock) should be good enough

I've grown up around it, and now that I'm an old man & a watch geek, I just find them WAY overrated at today's prices. The last time he got it serviced at an AD it cost him $1100!!!! WTF.
    Give me a nice Seiko and I'm a happy camper. Give me a cheap Vostok Amphibia and I'm a happy camper. And the Vostok is way more "original" and not so played out. Just my humble opinion.

Quirky, weird, but an ingenious design for extreme deep pressure -- not that I'll ever be doing more than desk-diving with mine. I've only had mine for a few months, but really love it. It's not super accurate (though I've heard they can be easily regulated) & there's no hacking - but they just have that certain "something." I gotta say too that as many bad things as I've heard about acrylic crystals, I love it on the Amphibia. Looks great, gives awesome blur at different angles, and somehow seems cooler than it should.
