New Tudor pelagos is coming

[Got20Mate]

Good ol' HONT - Dropped him a DM

 

[noah56]

David Timepieces (Non TD here) has it already :




And Hont (TD) makes a special offer announcement soon :

Yeah, I also contacted some TDs and nonTDs. More nonTDs can source it than TDs. I was wrong.

Here some qc pics from hont

Hands are aggressively more yellow than gen but it's fine. Wondering however about the sunburst on dial. I know on gen it's subtle but....

And some promo pics

Yeah the tone of the hands is way off - Surely the gen is not this beige?

Gen is slightly creamy hands compared to markers, but not so aggressively piss yellow. But the promo pics above look good so maybe it's Hont lighting + camera.

However I'm beginning to fear that ZF has missed the sunburst on dial. I have carefully inspected pictures and there are no hint of radial lines that mean sunburst.

I would not purchase this just yst.

Yeah interesting, I saw the same. The new promo pics really highlight this

Yes as told yesterday no sunbrust at all it’s a big miss…
Hope they will fix it together with hands

 

[Jonathann]

No sunburst dial is a dealbreaker for me. Nice to see it with the ti bracelet but the TUF version does have the sunburst.

 

[mclarendude]

Ouchhh.

 

[patek_with_sellita]

Damn what a shame. Hope the fix it tho.

I would wait for qc. Seems kinda stupid to rep a watch so well and skip the obvious sunburst. Doesn’t seem like a zf thing to miss.

In my experience, factories usually leave one BIG tell compared to gen. Not sure why but whenever a factory gets really close to gen, it gets raided. AF Tanks were getting closer and closer, now after raid, their v2 has different font for “Cartier”. Dial on Tudors is flat. etc etc

 

[aHero]

if it’s lacking sunburst then I promise it was not intentional LOL

 

[Service]

I'm gonna wait out for V2.

Some more pics here. Can't see the sunburst dial being accurate.. unfortunately

Also the inner part of the hands is wrong... Looks shiny Gray and should be dark Black.

 

[johnchpark]

I would believe Hont's photos over TD websites' stock white background ones.

Hands are way off - but this is also consistent with ZF's other Tudor releases (ex: BB58 and BB54 with the off-tone hands).

I was waiting for this release, but it's gonna be a skip from me. Will wait for V2

Update:

Looks like Puretime also has pictures up.
I guess hands look better here, so maybe Hont got a weird sample.
But no sunburst
