How's your Tudor Pelagos holding up?

So to be honest, I've bought more reps than I ever should, but the Pelagos has completely gobsmacked me sideways. Looking at the ZF version from a TD but wanted to know from those of you that have one how either it or the V6 version are holding up? My Timeshops 16610 has held up nicely after 4 years and I'd hope to get that or better from a Pelagos. I know the titanium will be more susceptible to surface scratches but I'll likely put a NATO on it.

Do you still love your Pelagos as much now? Thanks for the info.

Hey. My ZF seems to be holding up great! I installed the rubber strap that I got with it pretty much straight away and will likely keep it on . That being said, I'm pretty careful with my reps and it seems to be holding up well. All in all its a great watch at a good size and a rep of a brand that flies under the radar , all good in my book!

Just buy one already! :)

I'm sold on a Tudor- still trying to figure out if it will be a Pelagos or Black Bay. How are your indices, especially the 3 o'clock next to the date? I suppose that's what QC pics are for. I want to get one and will get it pressure tested for at least some light swimming work.

I have the Pelagos ZF and it's my daily beater, holding up well. I recommend you to.

I've had my zf for nearly 2 months and its my daily beater now. My other watches don't even get a look tbh. I will get the gen as I think i could live with just this one watch.

Bought a ZF from Toro, arrived malfunctioning. Send to service, more 70 bucks and now is perfect

Got my ZF Pelagos from Psycho, it is a beautiful piece.
Just a question for those who own this model, does the bezel insert on yours clicks when you press on it? (It is turning fine but when I press lightly on certain parts of the bezel it depresses and clicks).
No big deal but still a bit annoying.

My zf bezel clicks when pushed down onto watch case. Its because of the 4 little springs putting upward pressure on it. Nothing to worry about. The more upward pressure from the springs means a more solid click when turning the bezel.

One thing I have noticed is the lume on the bezel gets dirty and looks a cream colour. Also my insert seems to go a very light colour almost grey after wearing in bath/shower. I think that is the oils being washed off because within a day it is back to being the darker colour.. Other than that I love my pelagos and I am decided it will be my next gen watch I buy buy I will get the newer one with in house mvt and complete works of Shakespeare on the dial.

I love mine. Going to pick up a gen soon before the new model announced at Baselworld with the tudor in house movement comes out. I can't stand all the extra text on the new dial. 5 lines of text is so busy, ruins the clean dial.

3 months in and mine is holding up well as a daily wearer.

One month as a daily wearer, few small hairline scratches on the bezel (from dropping my paladium wedding band on it), the body is still perfect

bracelet.. well looks like a well desk-dived bracelet, lots of scratches as expected. I'm not too concerned though, this is how a daily wearer should look like anyways.
