Finally someone who gets it. Its not a downsized Pelagos, it is the modern Tudor Sub which was 200m. Submariner will never be on a Tudor dial again. This gets the most wrist time in my 15 or so watch collection.

My good friend and fellow watch enthusiast was lucky enough to pick one up from a Tudor boutique while on vacation in France. He loves it. I got to check it out when he got back. It IS pretty sweet in person. Have no issues with the unique finish to the dial finish not being matte which some criticized a bit. Looks good with the radiant finish. And, my friend got to check out my new Tudor purchase, a Black Bay 58 Bronze. I would love to get a P39 someday. But, I think like many others, holding off for the eventual blue version of the p39. The lume is good. BUT, as many have noted, a little weird and slightly disappointing the hands are noticeably weaker lume than the rest of the dial and bezel. Hope they adjust and fix that in future production of the black p39... especially when they eventually donate blue p39.

They are now 20 % below retail in my country . They are not available not because of demand or supply issue but marketing strategy . Most existing customers get call to get this from ADs . The reason why ppl are not buying is because the price will continue to drop. As we know, Tudor produces great watches but is the worst performing watch when it comes to holding value in 2023. Don’t expect this brand to increase in value in the near future. Over the last 2 years , it was positioned as the garbage by ADs where customers are forced to buy them in order to buy rolex and are now deemed as junk in the grey market . I guess it’s all rolex own doing so there’s nothing to be sad here . Aside from market update, it is a great watch and one for the enthusiast and with a market like that one should walk away if ADs do not provide massive discount of 30-40% (they will find a way to give you that discount in some form). What comes around goes around, some ADs need to fail and we should let them fail 👍🏻

Tudor is using a grade 2 titanium, which is frankly disappointing at this watch's price point. There's many dive watch options with g2 titanium at a third of the price of a Tudor.
@mabr644411 ай бұрын
Why is that disappointing? It's not like grade 5 is way better than grade 2 in every way. Grade 5 is more resistant to scratches but grade 2 is more corrosive resistant in water and that's where it's supposed to be used. Grade 5 is also a bit heavier and lastly it's harder to machine and getting the fine details right since it chips more easily. I also think that it's cool that grade 2 is pure titanium and not an aluminum alloy.
