Wow that panda Tudor looks fantastic

HORNBLOWER · 7 April 2021, 10:01 PM

Beautiful...love the red text and red chrono hand tip. I think a black set of hands ie. white Ex2 colour would have been better on the new white dial chrono.

DM101 · 7 April 2021, 10:03 PM

Wow ! I'll take BOTH .....

fskywalker · 7 April 2021, 10:03 PM

Very nice!

Goose 104 · 7 April 2021, 10:05 PM

I was a fan of the previous Chronos but these are even better - I think they will take off

Dan Pierce · 7 April 2021, 10:13 PM

Great looking chronographs. A 12 hour counter and rotating bezel would have added more versatility, but then, you can't have everything.

The THC still provides more features I use and looks great doing it.

Awesome!

planemad · 7 April 2021, 10:45 PM

I just keep thinking that the white dial needs to be whiter, it looks slightly too 'off white' to me.

Yeah I get what you mean - one of the reasons I sold the OP39 a few years ago. Sometimes would get a creamy hue from it which i wasn’t keen on.

Yep, like the big block white enamel

Also agree - will reserve judgement till I see in the flesh. I don’t mind my GMT too much.

Quite funny how Tudor claim the case has been reduced to a ‘thin’ 14.4mm

Safe, bland and generic. But, nice, too.

peterpl · 7 April 2021, 10:53 PM

Nothing special imho.

Is the movement inhouse and column wheel chrono? Or using a clutch like a 7750? (I hate how the 7750s feel and many times they dont even reset perfectly to 12). LOL

bp1000 · 7 April 2021, 10:56 PM

I've ordered the black dial.

Think it looks fantastic. Curious to see if the case has indeed been reshaped. It looks like the lugs and bevelling is a bit different to go with the reduced thickness.

I think this will be a winner, with the old one, the slab of metal look with the brushed bezel didn't quite work. This does.

Still a shame, such a big snowflake hand over the sub dials.

Same here. Been told it might be available as early as next week. Let's see

SeaDweller50 · 7 April 2021, 10:58 PM

I like chrono’s in general but hate the push buttons on the side of the case.

peterpl · 7 April 2021, 10:59 PM

Lets just pray to god there are no movement issues with Tudor and having a chrono + date function.

We dont want another lemon like the GMT again. LOL

Be careful early adopters.

Its the same movement they used in the previous version of the BB Chrono, MT5813 is a Breitling movement modified by Tudor and is really rather good.

bugimas · 7 April 2021, 11:34 PM

Love the panda, best Tudor release of the year.

airchitect · 7 April 2021, 11:36 PM

prob the only thing this year that got me remotely excited so I think Im in for a panda

polarinda · 7 April 2021, 11:36 PM

Can you read time on the panda?

If the readability mattered to buyers, the Panda Daytona wouldn't be a thing.

Jmbarrack · 7 April 2021, 11:37 PM

Visually, I love these Tudor Chronos. I also loved the two-tone from last year. The problem for me is their size. 41mm case and 14.4mm thick. It just doesn't work on my wrist.

That's I think the biggest appeal of the Daytona for most people. It's 2mm thinner and 2mm narrower and this.

capote · 8 April 2021, 12:15 AM

Pretty lazy to not color match date wheel on the black one

sutats · 8 April 2021, 12:28 AM

It looks like the design issue of the snowflake hour hand on the chronograph carries on. The chunky snowflake hour hand is a poor choice on the chronographs or at least in their layout to the subdials.

Since the chronograph models were reintroduced the snowflake hand can appear in the position of obscuring either subdials significantly to the point of not being able to read the elapsed time.
