Picked up a Tudor GMT today.
This watch is amazing - pics don’t do it justice. I debated between this and the pelagos and couldn’t be happier with this beauty.

First and foremost CONGRATULATIONS! Hope you get to enjoy it in good health for many years to come.
I picked one up myself just yesterday. I have not put it on the wrist yet. But am looking forward to it. I spoke with the Tudor rep as AD was having an event and dude was there, so I asked him about the GMT calendar issue and if problem was still ongoing. He stated issue was resolved and the new ones are tip top. So then I asked did you bring one to event? Yes, we did. I believe it was being checked in went over to SA and asked for it and viola it is now mine, got a nice discount on it as well, so very happy camper.

Congrats to you as well. I inquired about the calendar issue as well and he assured me as well that the new ones don’t have the issue. After that it was a no-brainer.

I was told the issue was due to wrong lubricant used and that issue would have worked itself out in time... my response was "still, not right" he agreed and said "That is why we made it right" then I bought my watch...

Congrats on your pick up! I haven’t truly paid attention to Tudor over the years but since being on the forum I’ve seen many members’ pictures and they are beautiful watches. I love how vibrant the bezel colours are even while appearing to be a matte finish. I look forward to checking these out in person one day.

I am having the same internal debate. For me, it is the LHD Pelagos. What factors did you consider in madding your final decision?

Awesome watch - congrats!

I don’t think you can go wrong with either but I liked the feel of the GMT a little more when I tried it on (GMT is a little heavier and I liked that).
