The Tudor Pelagos FXD = Most Underrated Tudor Watch. Try to change my mind.
The Tudor Pelagos FXD = Most Underrated Tudor Watch. I think the things people hold against it: the fixed spring bars, bi direfctional bezel, etc. are the things that make it so cool! If it isn't the most UNDERRATED Tudor - it at least has to be the coolest Tudor in the current catalogue. Designed alongside Marine Nationale, this watch is fit for purpose and actually used by the French Navy.
I think it's cool! Probably the COOLEST, but Tudor is always killing it in my books!
WHAT DO YOUUUU think to the FXD?

    Although you describe the 36 mm watch's taper as large (which it is), I think it is a massive comfort bonus and I appreciate that, especially in hotter environments. It surprised me that even with that degree of taper the watch does not feel dainty. I have a 6.8 inch wrist. Note; make sure you measure the correct wrist, as there may be a significant difference between dominant and non dominant wrists. The Rolex bracelet is more comfortable than my BB58 bracelet , even though the BB58 is not even 40 mm. I sometimes fret about size, but it is only fashion & marketing pushing me. It will be interesting to see if my opinion changes. If 36mm was good enough for Mr Fleming and the Everest mob then it should be good enough for me. 40 mm sounds too big when I consider how easy this 36 mm watch is to wear, but I haven't seen a 40 mm to confirm that.

    So it would be nice to have, as I have purchased and owned a fair few Tudors over the last forty years, and I'm ok with paying around $6,000 as the Tudor rep stated while being interviewed in a youtube clip a couple of days ago. So I jump on the www can only find two available for sale, bargain I can get them for just under $22,000...... Ok I'm not going to buy one at that price, I'll just jump on Tudors www and just have a dream, bugger someone forgot to put it on there.

    The absolute best thing CW has done since this review came out is to ditch the lettering and go with the twin flag logo. It gives their watches the reserved, elegant distinction they so desperately needed. The Trident counterbalance also seems to be finding its way into a brand design callout. I've never seen another watch brand use it, and it is instantly recognizable as a CW now. I got the bronze C60 300, and it's a brilliant watch, but the hands & indices are identical, and I don't need my watchbox filled with such a similar watch.

    All points are wrong. The dial indices, the hands are all wrong, not at all similar to legacy Seamaster 300 DNA. The move to 6 o'clock position for the date is an improvement. Now there is symmetry to the dial. That version also seems to have an anodized aluminum bezel insert too. The bracelet is terrible too. Uses male end links for an inferior fit and appearance. The helium escape valve is more better looking now being tapered. This version was the equivalent of New Coke.
