Tudor Pelagos for the win!

Is there a better blue dialed diver out there?

I’m a huge fan of Tudor but I have to say Omega Seamaster 300.

sure there are better ;)

For me it would be the Polaris automatic. It sits very flat on the wrist has an awesomely crisp blue dial. It is the perfect companion for desk diving!

the Tudor pelagos is one of the best but THE best, I'm not sure...

·

I don't own any of them but I've tried them all in real life.

The Tudor is a level below Seamaster and Polaris in term of design and the blue colour.

Nice but not a SMP300 blue nice.

I am a huge fan of the Pelagos. On the other hand it depends of which kind of blue you prefer. I like for example the lighter blues.. And then it has to do also with texture and material of the dial..

Both the SMP300 and that Polaris are nice watches.  In fact I have a white SMP.  But for sheer tool legibility, the Pelagos can’t be beat.  The stark contrast of the dial; the distinct hands that don’t make you go searching for the triangle among the circles once the lume settles down (looking at you SMP); the gi-normous lume plots that enable Tudor to pile on the lume.  I like my blue so much I also picked up a black one.

I love BB58 Blue. So hard to get it here locally from an AD

If i m not wrong, the fxd has a different blue, personal i prefer a deeper blue but pelagos is without a doubt an outstanding piece.

The blue dial Pelagos is the type of model a watch enthusiast can spot from across the room. Few brands in this range can pull that off.

Maybe you will be surprised but there is one beautiful which is VERY cheap but very nice and good quality - Casio Duro. I think I will pull the trigger very soon even if it is a 44 mm diameter (big watch) but the lug to lug looks quite interesting and I saw it on other 16 mm wrist ... and it was not so big.

And of course Christopher Ward C60#tide, which I own. Very nice dial, bezel and lume. The quality of this watch is just perfect. They call it Omega killer. I don't because it is another watch from another brand ...
