ZF will launch the 2018 Baselworld Tudor Black Bay GMT Pepsi next month

Haha now the struggle will be real; this or the Aqua Terra GMT with a white face

It all depends on how it is priced. I really want one of these but if they are coming in around $500, I might just get a Steinhart instead.

I dont think ZF will price it at 500. Aluminium insert and 304 steel case. No justification for a $500 price at all. It will probably be priced similarly to the other black bays that ZF makes.

Any word or thoughts on the movement?

A2836 with GMT, incorrect hand stack

Hmm shame they aren't able to use the 2893 which I think has the CHS and would take gen hands although not really needed.

There is no clone of the 2893 and gen ETA 2893 are getting harder to find and cost ~$500 for the movement alone. Would be excellent mod nonetheless if the ZF release is super-rep territory.
Also, the Gen uses an in-house movement and not ETA.

I had a BBS and thought I would love it, I did not, but took the chance on a BB S&G and I have been wearing it everday for two weeks. Love it. The two tone looks amazing with the rivet bracelet. Love the old school homage look. I will probably end up buying one of these but the ICHS bothers me, so we shall see, lol!!!

I’ve been considering the s&g too

Is it strange that steinhart has been selling their gmts with eta 2893 elabore for years on the $500-600 mark. I’m thinking to get their new 39mm Pepsi as well. Waiting for the ZF new release anyway

I have the Steinhart. Very solid piece!

I'm looking forward to seeing how this Tudor GMT rep will turn out.

 

[Verbal]

Subscribed and hope v1 is good enough and I’ll do a rep vs gen.
Love mine to bits.

 

[Pyknic]

Crystal on that gen looks beautiful!

This is and the 58 are in the shopping list

 

[poinds]

I have the gen as well and will try to get a hold of the ZF rep once it comes out.

 

[Taz71]

Tic Toc!

 

[preppyr6]

Im going ahead and placing an order for the nato strap...its a beauty. I may need to throw my BB Bronze up for sale to make room in the box for this fella

 

[SadProfessor]

I hope this is very good. I’m currently on the waiting list for a gen. would love to be able to claw that money back!

Why is that out of curiosity? I’m tempted too but the thickness of the gen is very unappealing to me.
