Petition to Make a Tudor Pelagos

[ajs914]

The question is by now or wait six months for version two?

 

[sanankid]

Id wait, the cg shape is wrong. Also there is a gap on the gen clasp that is not on the prototype. The bezel spacing on all numbers needs to be improved.

Overall though very nice. 99 percent acccurate imo.

 

[sanankid]

At 460 shipped i may just go gen. Chrono black bay or pelago gen which to choose if price is equal....

I also noticed the CG shape and it drives me insane as I already paid my pre-order. I hope they fix most of the promised small flaws and I could live with a few ones also. But the CG shape I think I have to bring my grinder and fix it myself...

 

[Gangar]

But CG's shape isn't wrong, this is the rep of the first version of the Tudor Pelagos,
in the recent version they changed the watch CG to a sharper one.
but at the first realese of the watch the CG was rounded

here is a gen

EDIT:
What is wrong with the way that i try to post that pic?

 

[Metalmickey]

I much prefer the original CGs as in the rep. Andrew has confirmed they will not be changing them, as the gen they worked from is an older one with rounded CGs.

Try using the image button in the editor:

I think they still are fatter than the old version.

 

[AdolphLange]

I have send Puretime an message because the CGs.

 

[Jumperke]

Damn never thought that it would happen so soon. Going to wait on the V2 or V3 and put this bracelet on my BB

I have send Puretime an message because the CGs.

It's not final. I just meant the prototype needs a mod.

Guys, don't expect any changes to the case. That's the hardest thing to correct. If they bought an early gen, you are getting a rep of the early gen. End of story. If they try to sharpen the cg's without a newer gen case to model, it will look like sh@t. Also, don't even try to mod the cg's yourself unless you know how to work with titanium. It's not the same as messing around with a steel sub. Titanium is a completely different beast and much harder to work with.

Makes sense. Even though the crown guards do bug me. I am too curious to see how this rep is in the flesh.. There is a good chance I'll buy the gen any way after a while with it.

Do u guys think angus will post a video up on pure time before shipments actually take place? I need to see that video before I can pre order, pics don't tell enough

Here's Angus video of pelagos http://www.replicawatchvideo.com/mobile/_13f0d4c93.html

I'm more interested in the kW/v6f version it has the correct crown guards and hour markers look better.

I guess we can agree that we cannot compare the two different factories until both are out, and according to a few people the ZF will not be out until the end of this month. Shame, because I really want to get my hands on a Pelagos like yesterday, but I think it will be beneficial to just wait until they are both out and we have some hands on reviews. Personally I am more interested in how well built the watch is, and going by the Blackbay, ZF nailed it but as of now, my Pelagos vote goes to the V6...I mean look how close...

 

[sanankid]

Yeah the bezel font spacing on the zf is not as good. But the Tudor font on the clasp is better. The clasp is so sick on this watch.

 

[Jordan27]

I'm thinking the best combo heres going to end up being the v6 head and bracelet with the ZF clasp.... But we will soon see.... Need to buy one of these asap

 

[alexanderjs]

Arrived from Lee 2 days ago, V6. Solidly built watch! Some quick pics for interest

 

[Redmondis]

Looks good!

How's the bezel feel on my real one if the Pip is at 12 o'clock it takes slightly more effort to turn it than any other point. Also the machining on the coin edge is so sharp your fingers will not slip.
Almost forgot is the crown/stem triple sealed?
