Pre-Owned Tudor Pelagos 40991156/AS07913

WHY WE LOVE IT

–

In the past 10 years, Tudor has been doing a fantastic job with its contemporary offerings. 

Watches such as the Black Bay, Heritage Chronograph, and Pelagos collections have been flying off the shelves for their impressive looks, sporty construction and aggressive price points. But for sheer utility, sportiness, and integration of modern materials, it’s the Pelagos that has us most impressed.

Though it draws from Tudor’s back catalog of dive watches for aesthetic inspiration, the Pelagos brings a forward-thinking design to the tool watch arena. Constructed from titanium and featuring a unique, automatically-adjusting clasp, this is the type of timepiece that a saturation diver would happily strap on while working hundreds of meters below the surface of the ocean.

This particular Pelagos features a 42mm titanium case, a sapphire crystal, a helium escape valve, a signed crown, and a unidirectional rotating dive timing bezel with a luminous blue ceramic insert. It features a matte blue dial with applied luminous indices, an outer minute track in white, a date window at 3:00, and a matching ‘snowflake’ handset.

Paired to a titanium multi-link bracelet with a signed deployant clasp and the aforementioned dive extension feature, it’s powered by the in-house, COSC-certified Tudor Calibre MT5612 automatic movement with a 70-hour power reserve. Water resistant to a whopping 500m, it’s accompanied by its factory goodies, including an additional rubber strap.

We can’t overstate this enough: The Pelagos is one of the best dive watch designs of the 21st century - and very well the best in the Rolex family. It has become a modern classic, and just takes taking it below the waves to see what we're talking about.

Just like us!
