Definitely one of the best divers for the money.

Technically, came out last year??? But I agree it is a fine watch.

Fantastic photos! The Pelagos 39 will definitely be my next purchase… when I have the funds that is! 😂

When Tudor returned to Canada and America, it reminded me of my first years in the hobby, good times when I was a younger man, very quickly sourced 7 different models until I went by the Tudor boutique to inquire about the Ranger around the time that the 39mm Pelagos was launched. Oddly, the brand lost all attraction for me with that model, my temporary Tudor affectation was done! Nice watch but not for me.

Different strokes for different folks I guess… 👍🏼

Of course, very nice watch but I was hoping for a little more! After so many years in the hobby some ennui was inevitable, the sales agents did not help when they suggested that Tudor was hoping to create more uni sex watches which is fine!

Unpopular opinion....

it's a bit too boring for me, it's a stereo typical dive watch with nothing really interesting going on.

I feel like tudor as a whole is meh, they havent done anything interesting or innovative.....ever

And the fact tudor as a brand are made to purposely be not as good as the other wilsdorf brand, that kinda ruins it a bit more.

Do you own one, or have you tried one on?

Haha I only ask because it’s a common gripe I hear about this watch. Based on the photo the lume looks fine
