The blue matte dial is a stunner and the bracelet is a true work of art.
It wears much like the Black Bay, very comfortably.
I’m not ready to buy just yet but this looks like the one.

Great looking watch, love the blue, and the crown guards give it a nice balance.

It's a keeper AFAIC....

It looks even better in person.

AD or Trusted seller route?

The only watches I’ve bought from an AD are the two Nomos.
So I’ll most probably go with a trusted seller again.

I zero in on what I would like, set that as my goal, and set aside some discretionary funds each month until I’m ready to pull the trigger.
This will be the one though, and thank you again for letting me know that WB now is a Tudor AD.

If you need help getting discount .let me know. I'm sort of a little vip @ WB . The guy there, we go way way back. lol

Thanks Tony. When I’m ready I’ll send you a PM.

So...if I were in your shoes with your criteria that you've set, those would be the two I would be looking at. Good luck!

Fully agree! The blue Pelagos has a very distinct bright lovely blue color and the titanium case & bracelet make it light and comfortable. The blue Omega 300M is also a fine choice and has wonderful style with a very comfortable braclet (I've had one since 2007 with no plans to ever sell). Good luck in your decision and look forward to seeing pics of your choice. Cheers!

Pelagos blue is one of my must have watches when I get some money.

Bigblu10 · 28 April 2018, 06:35 AM

Never been a Tudor fan but that watch is pretty cool. Watched a few youtube reviews of it. The lume glow is incredible and the bezel numerals also glow. Neat!

When I first looked at the Pelagos several years ago there was no blue version so I went with the Black Bay instead.
But this blue matte dial has to be seen in person to be fully appreciated. I’m hooked.

I have owned the Pelagos blue and found after a couple months was too blue for my taste, I mean too bright I guess. I also didn’t like the color and feel of the titanium, hard to describe but felt tinny? I then opted for an Omega Planet Ocean, 600 in blue. The new master chronometer 8900 movement is scary accurate and the blue ceramic dial and bezel are unreal. You can get this new from trusted sellers here in your price range. I would consider this as an option.

Another vote for the Pelagos here. In house movement, expansion style bracelet and overall gorgeous watch at a good price point!
