Newly released today, what are your thoughts?
For me a simple dial and bezel colour change isn't too dramatic, though I like the new rubber strap option and think it is always good to have more dials with the snowflake hour markers as this is distinctly Tudor!!
I was "whelmed." Not over, not under, just kinda here looking at a slightly different version of watch that I think it okay.
May be I am too used to looking at my Pelagos. The bezel just look way too busy.
Massively underwhelmed… and I love Tudor
What's the difference?

Black colour scheme instead of blue :)
What's the difference?
Unidirectional diving bezel instead of the bi-directional countdown bezel and it comes in black. The rest of the watch is exactly the same to the existing FXD.
Its a FXD for people who want to time pasta and other things in life.
Disappointed.
More useful variation of the FXD but there is nothing new other than a different beze and color. Atleast they could have gave a blue variant too along with the black.
Was expecting a Submariner reissue even though believing it is never going to happen.
Was really hoping for this color, with a countdown bezel. Oh well.
Still looks 👌🏻. Love fixed lugs.
Meh. I wonder if Tudor will follow Rolex example of keep presenting the same watch with tiny changes every few year.
So much meh from me. I was hoping for a new line of Prince Chrono Big Block watches - like the Only Watch edition.

I'm hoping for a polar black bay pro 🤞

I don't think so, I think the brand just wait for the bigger events for bigger releases
Boring release in my opinion.
Saw this too...

The squares on the dial make the snowflake hands actually look good. I'm not a fan of snowflake hands but I'm kinda into this watch
I had the Pelagos two liner and loved it. This new 39 Pelagos will be my retirement gift to myself =)
Um…ok…great watch I’m sure but…this is like watching Shaq shooting free throws (if you were rooting for the Lakers which I never did EVER - except when they played the Jazz back in the day, you see, I’m from Texas and…) Anyways
How bout a blue pelagos 39 guys? But no rush I’m perpetually blowing my watch budget.
Beautiful timepiece
How cool would this watch be if they threw on a dark green bezel? Just SOMETHING more than going from blue to black. Heck, even a more charcoal/grey bezel to give it a “ghost” look would’ve been cool.
The more I look at it the more I prefer it to the Black bays. I think because from a design perspective "I" prefer the snowflake with squarish hour markers. I was always on the fence for a BB58 I must say I nearly fell off when the pelagos 39 was launched. Although I really cannot justify another diver it just may happen.
Maybe my next “do it all” diver
I think that, out of all the watches made in history, this Tudor Pelagos is definitely one of them.
Truly one of the watches of all time.
It's fine, it's a perfectly handsome watch. And while that doesn't mean it's setting the world on fire, and people who love to kick the brand will get their kicks in, I think the flipside of the coin is that, as perfectly handsome watch, it's still miles ahead of many watches, which are just bloody awful.
Small tweak on a winning formula. Colour and bezel change means even more of a strap monster than the OG.
Only downside is that if you already own an FXD, probably not enough of a difference to justify getting this one too?
Same price as the existing FXD. Tudor compensated by increasing the price last week so the new one doesn't seem more expensive 😂
Neat
This does have a military connection. Check out:

Thanks. I had heard otherwise and so I now retract that part of my statement. That said, I still prefer the blue version.
Since I saw a comment on the way this Tudor hour hand doesn’t tell the time but more or less takes a stab at what time it is, I can’t unsee that I’m afraid 😝

I was being sarcastic, sorry 🧐👍🏻
