I searched for a thread like this and couldn't find one. So I thought since I got my first Pelagos today that I'd start the thread.

Please share your pictures, experiences, adventures, etc!!

So far I'm loving my new Tudor!!

I am a strap junkie and promptly removed the bracelet and placed my new Pelagos on one of my homemade Horween straps.

I plan to put my Pelagos on the rubber strap and will snap some photos of it when I have time.

Thanks!!

Hope to join your club soon. Always thought I wanted the Blue, but i'm wavering lately on that. Black seems so much more versatile. Nice strap BTW, but I'm a little more partial to the bracelet or a nato. Good luck with it.

I thought blue until I saw them both in person, although both amazing.

Re: Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

I'm an equal opportunity watch strap wearer. [emoji12] I was so excited to get the watch today that I had to try several different straps on it. I love the Blue Pelagos as well, but since I have a blue dial watch already, I opted for the black since a black face diver was a gap in my collection.

Opted for a 2-liner a few weeks back. My favorite watch. I even prefer it to my BLNR. Here are some old pics.

Re: Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

Got mine 2 weeks ago in Malaysia and so happy as it was my 1st Tudor and its supremely comfortable to wear. But due to some timing issues after the 3rd day of wear (30-45mins slower after a 24-hr block), I had no choice but to send in to the The Rolex Centre in Singapore for a quick check since I flew to there. After about 1 week of monitoring, they applied some oil to the rotor and adjust the timing on the new movement and I was informed everything is back to normal. Sad and quite surprised that this issue had to happen on my Tudor but probably mine was 1 out of a thousandth case. Yet to collect it back as need to arrange time to fly there again ;-(

Here are some pics of my Pelagos:

Mine also had some issues, it was gaining about 30 seconds a day. It's in Switzerland at the moment... It's been 2 weeks, so I hope to have it back very soon.
Following on from earlier comments, I don't find the height an issue at all. It's not a small watch, but it a good, comfortable size. I think being made of titanium, the reduced weight helps with that too. Although I wouldn't wear it with a suit. I can't see the utilitarian vibe sitting to well with a 3 piece pin stripe [emoji4][emoji1303][emoji1303]

Re: Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

Coincidence that I am wearing my Pelagos today..

Do you guys find the crown really tight when screwing or unscrewing and kind of stuff when pushing it in to screw down?

I have found it tight on a couple of occasions, but I haven't had that issue for a while.... 90% of the time it's fine.

I bought my pelagos v1 used from a fellow member here. I've worn mine near daily for about a year. Love this watch!

Still looks great except the clasp needs a polishing.

Mine is scratched to hell as well. It doesn't matter what I do, the clasp get mangled. The sides of the watch too.

I've had mine 2 weeks and love it.

After 14 days it's lost 10 seconds. Pretty solid performance.

Re: Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

After the first full day of wear it's running about -4 seconds. [emoji16] I'd prefer it to be fast. Hopefully it'll smooth out. Last night while I was admiring the watch, I noticed a fleck of something under the crystal. [emoji35] I gave it a little tap and it disappears. Hopefully it just magically disappeared, but if it reappears I'll be making a trip to my local AD. Being only a couple days old, I'd hope they could just possibly replace it.

I put it on the rubber strap today. Wear very nice and comfy!! Aside from the fleck, I'm enjoying this thing immensely.

Re: Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

I just got the Pelagos 3 days ago, actually went to my AD in Singapore with the intention of getting a BBR... As luck would have it they only had the blue which did not sing to me.

Now I am having a slight buyer's remorse as I feel I should have gotten the blue version.

Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

3 full days of wear and the watch is settling in at about 0.5 seconds fast! That's over 3 days, not per day!!! Cannot be more pleased! Things I love about this thing is that it has styling cues from many of my favorite watches. Has the size and wrist presence of a Sinn U1, rehaut like the Seiko Monster, build quality of a Rolex, etc.

Yesterday I put one of my homemade Horween NATOs on it and it wore very nicely. Then, I put the watch back on the bracelet and think I'll leave it for a while. Also did a lume shot next to some of my other watches. Top is my Citizen nighthawk, bottom left to right are Squale 1521, the Pelagos, Resco Manus and the Steinhart OT500. I think he Citizen (which is over 8 years old) and the Pelagos are definitively brighter than the others!

Re: Unofficial Tudor Pelagos Owner Thread

I honestly don't think I will ever be attached to a watch as I am with my Pelagos.. Its tough for me to ever put on anything else. Had it for 8 months and love it more everyday :)

8 months here and i feel exactly the same! unfortunately the bracelet tends to rub against my wrist bone and bruise ( im the only person ive heard of with this problem and this is the only watch i have this problem with) so it pretty much lives on a nato.
