Hey Chris! This is definitely the best Tudor GMT review on YT!! Congrats 👏👏 After the second repair last May, mine has been working perfectly. Tudor seems to have fixed the date issue at last! Since you mentioned the hour markers size, I just did a comparison and they are actually smaller on the BB GMT than on the BB58. That is to allow the extra space for the GMT hand which almost reaches the extremities of the dial. Cheers! 🍻

Great review Chris. I’ve had this watch about 18 mos and no date wheel issues for me. It is bulky but I have an 8.5” wrist so I don’t mind. It is tall so I have dinged the case side. I saw a different YT review where the reviewer swapped out the bracelet for a vulcanized blue/red strap from Crafter Blue. I ordered that strap and it really helps with the weight and comfort. The rubber negates any sliding around due to the watch being top heavy. Problem is the rubber end link makes it very hard to get a grip on the bezel. Enjoy the watch

Just a beautiful watch, reminiscent of vintage Rolex GMTs from the late 1970s and early 80s. You simply cannot complain or criticise the watch in any way, when you consider its retail price, it represents outstanding value for money. Beautiful manufacturing quality, at a fairly affordable price, it just feels and performs like a watch costing quite a bit more. I am lucky enough to own both watches, and there is little if any difference in manufacturing quality. Obviously a modern Rolex is made to higher standards, with more expensive materials, but comparing the Black Bay GMT with a vintage Rolex GMT, their near identical in quality. The only real difference, is the glaring price disparity, my 1978 GMt is worth considerably more than my Tudor Black Bay, but is not really reflected in the quality. Tudor have come a very long way, and thats thanks to their sister company Rolex

What a beautiful piece. You would be hard pressed to find a better watch for $4000. The Pepsi colors are cartoonish, and the brushed bracelet is so nice here vs the jubilee. And at a fourth of the price. This Tudor would look really nice on a saddle leather strap. I wish they would use the square hour indices like the Pelagos, as it matches the snowflake better.

I have both the Tudor GMT and the blue dial Pelagos. The Pelagos gets way more wrist time. I love the gray of the titanium and the legibility of the blue dial and white markers. Something I don’t see much in the reviews but worth mentioning is the AR coating on the Pelagos crystal. It is the best in the biz. The crystal just about disappears under normal conditions.

I did love the watch but it's a pretty poor state of affairs when Tudor can't release a watch costing £3k to change date properly when much cheaper watches I've used for years have never had this problem. Really disappointing and will never buy a Tudor again.
