Cure For The Summertime Blues.......

Yeah, movement is restricted thanks to this damn virus, the deck won't be ready till early June, the weather has been bleak to say the least, however the seasonal strap swap will at least give me some control over my summer.

Gorgeous Tudor. I often thought the Pelagos is the silent gem in the new Tudor lineup.

That blue color is striking! I may have to take another look at that one next time I'm in the shops. Was it on a bracelet originally?

I have always liked the Pelagos and the blue is one of my favorite spring/summer watches. I might put mine on the strap. I like the look.

Nice, Dan.

Know what you mean, it's been suck-ville here too, right down the road from you. But danged if a nice watch doesn't help a brother out.

Yes, but also Tudor provides a rubber strap, including a diver extension, as part of the package.

Thanks, Ron! Yes, having the buckle at 6:00 is more intuitive when strapping on the watch and it centers the buckle under my wrist nicely.

The combo of Ti & rubber make it melt on the wrist. And it stays put too.

Dan, have you ever posted your complete collection of watches on TRF? I have always admired your eclectic taste and choices in picking timepieces.

I assume you used the center links on the non-rivet bracelet? Bet it looks great.

Thanks for the kind words. As with most collections, it's not uncommon for one to join and another off to a good home. Here's a pic from last year. Since then the Tudor Prince Date chrono and Fortis chrono have new owners and I've added the blue Pelagos.
