    Unexpected incoming

    Went shopping today and managed to go by a Tudor AD and looked in at the S&G Chorno and Pelagos, initially wanted the LHD version, but the blue just stood out and was the one that called out to me. So came away with the blue dialled Tudor.

    Very impressed the watch.



    Here it is with some of its siblings.

    Lovely collection! How do you find the chronograph wears in comparison to the GMT?

    I find they both wear comfortably even with out the chamfered edges from the GMT the chorno is lovely to wear, it’s been on my wrist since I picked it up on Thursday. Have slept with it and have hardly noticed it on my wrist.

    Pelagos is the best Tudor going imho. The Blue is stunning but I still fancy a LHD.

    Congratulations mate. It's a lovely shade of blue and I think compliments a predominantly black faced collection very well.

    Lovely set of Tudors there

    Having only recently been in a position to really enjoy the WIS thing, I seem to be heading down a similar route, with Tudor becoming my favourite manufacturer. Great looking, well built, not stupidly expensive (but that can’t last long surely?) and real history.

    Congratulations on your most recent addition

    Quite possibly did go past a few not as common back than as they are now; but never stopped to take a look at them. I really like the brand and enjoy the watches a lot more than other more expensive brands that I own. The Pelagos made me smile which I have not done a while in this watch collecting hobby. The LH version was a novelty and I may add one at a later date. But for now the blue is on my wrist.

    I'm wondering if there's a collective term for a group of Tudors?

    Nice collection OP!

    Surely a 'House'?

    With the latter being easily achieved by sellotapeing your top lip and teeth together.
