Tudor Black Bay GMT - Why I love it, and why it has to leave… REVIEW!

- I’ve loved the Tudor Black Bay GMT for three years now but even though I think it’s the perfect watch, it has sadly come to the point that it has to leave my collection… 😞
Why you might wonder? I ask myself the same question every day…
A little hint: Rolex and Omega…
I try to answer the question in this video!
Let’s see if I did a good job convincing myself…

i would take the Tudor all day over the Rolex.
The Tudor looks amazing even compared to the Rolex
Beautiful GMT watch but look at that lake and skylight in the background - it’s absolutely glorious.
I'm not one of those matchy-fashion types -- but have to say it goes pretty good with those tats
Thanks 😊
If you don't wear it, then keep it for the future.
Due to its affordability and fairly low price in the high quality watch market, there's a very good chance it will become a future classic.
I can remember back in 1978, buying my first Rolex at the AD in Cardiff.
In those days It was the cheapest Rolex in the catalogue, the Explorer 1655 Orange Hand, and it retailed for a low £524. Oh Boy those were the days, an affordable Rolex, you could see in the ADs window, walk into the showroom, and buy, if you had the money.
It was still a lot of money back in the 1970s, but nobody liked the watch, and dealers found difficulty in selling them.
When a certain Steve McQueen was seen wearing one, back in the 1980s, people took interest, and now the Rolex 1655 is hot property, selling for large sums of money.
The Tudor GMT is an affordable, high quality watch, with associations with Rolex, so i can see it retaining its value over the years.
A watch worth holding onto if you can justify keeping it for the future.
For those times when you don't want people to know you have a Rolex, the Tudor is a Godsend! Personally, I love mine. No issues. I also receive a lot of compliments. It sits perfectly on my 21 cm wrist. Next acquisition is the Aqua Terra Small Seconds. That might make my Explorer a bit lonely. Beautiful video work, BTW. I didn't realize that Paul Thorpe did hand modeling. :))
Glad you liked the video 😊
The Tudor GMT looked fantastic on your wrist!! ❤ I am now on the hunt for a GMT and the new BB58 GMT just might be the one 😊
Understandable choice and it makes sense. Stupendous video quality by the way! That Tudor GMT although used looked so crisp and good. Has been on my mind for a long time. A bit hesitant because of the date issue but even more because of the aluminium bezel. Saw somebody being turned off instantly after having it for a week and accidentally scratching the bezel heavily in a collision. I don't think I could stand that. But it's still tempting.
Thank you 🙏 I'm glad you liked the video 😊
As for the date issue... Tudor now have five years of warranty on their watches. If the issue presents itself during that period, they'll take care of it. If it doesn't, well, then you're lucky and don't have to worry about it. Either way, I wouldn't loose any sleep about it :)
About the aluminium bezel... I've owned watches for over 20 years, many of them with aluminium bezels, and never scratched one. And the domed sapphire is actually the first thing to take a hit anyway. And IF you scratch it, it will not cost that much to replace since it's aluminium 👍
I mean, all watches had aluminium bezels (except for those without bezels and those with stainless steel) up until recently, when many started to use ceramic.
@@backintimewatches Good zo know about the warranty thank you mate! Alright that makes the GMT all the more attractive 😊👍🏼 cheers mate
I love my one. I’m 95% sure that the date wheel issue was on the earlier models released and has since been rectified on all current models. The bezel is a shame it couldn’t be ceramic but I am clumsy and it’s not easy to scratch. Plus the domed sapphire Crystal standing proud helps protect it a little too. It’s a comfortable watch. Amazing quality for money my only nit pick is the thickness. Does not slip under a cuff easily. And the riveted bracelet has a marmite effect but it’s fitting for the era it’s trying to pay homage too. Well worth the buy though! It’s grown on me a lot.
I dunno, I’d take the Tudor all day, that’s why watch collecting is great, we can all enjoy what fits our own personality. I also have the Longines Conquest 39mm black instead of the Rolex Explorer. Amazing quality and heritage and $9,000 less.
It's a beautiful watch. In some ways it's a good thing to not be swimming in money, otherwise we'd hoard things that somebody else would enjoy & appreciate more than us. Mechanical watches need to run, so if you're not wearing it then it becomes a job to wind it occasionally for preventative maintenance. I've set a limit of 10 watches for myself, which is already a bit high but I'm willing to indulge my urge to collect up to a point.
True! That would actually be even worse. Having so much money that the appreciation for things is gone... Thanks for watching 😊
If you are a watch collector, in twenty years you will regret your decission. Twenty years from now, the Tudor GMT will be a collector’s piece just by the fact that it somehow managed to "dent the famous crown". Never sell a watch you like to buy something you like more because you will regret it in time...its like selling a Porsche because you now feel a Cadillac more comfortable...anyway...Enjoy your new Rolex!
what do u mean by dent famous crown
Don’t agree with this. He needs the money. You can’t just keep buying watches endlessly and hold onto them u less you can afford to. Everybody’s situation is different and he still got to enjoy the gmt. It’s not hard to get hold of either atm if he changes his mind and wants to get it back
Rolex @@yrrah89
@@yrrah89 Tudor GMT has managed to get its own personality even as a sister company. Denting the crown (the Rolex crown) is a way to express the way Tudor has competed successfully in the last 10 years with very nice watches including this one. I personally like the Tudor BB58.
You are going to regret selling the gmt. These ones will increase value substantially in time.
What a great video! You definitely have passion for the Tudor regardless of moving on from it. You got my subscription, thanks man.
Btw, nice Savinelli!!!
Thanks man ❤️
Great video and so well explained. I ordered the Tudor gmt and was actually considering the omega speedmaster as well and you covered both. I really want the Rolex Pepsi jubilee like yours but I know that’s very unlikely because of the huge demand and they removed me from the interest. Congrats on the baby. Another good reason to sell the Tudor
My Tudor Pelagos, I got when looking for a Black Bay 58. I thought Tudor had treated the Vietnam vets well in a documentary I saw, where Tudor restored the vet's watch that had been shot up in Vietnam years ago and he had kept all those years, and Tudor fixed it for him, so i resolved to try one of their watches. SoI was going in for a Black Bay 58, and when I got to the watch store, the Tudor Pelagos was so good looking I could no longer look at the Black Bay 58. So i got the Pelagos without knowing much about it, and i was well rewarded. It has a super accuracy of -1 second per day, well in superlative chronometer specifications. My favorite watch. Thanks Tudor. I have an Omega Seamaster, but I like my Tudor better.
Nice, do you got a blue or a black?
Congrats for the baby! Farewell to the Tudor!
Thank you ❤️
Very well put together review. Both the Rolex & the Omega are outstanding watches. However, I personally like the Tudor look and its understated sophistication. Cheers.
at the end I cry looking at this gmt last glimpse from its 1st owner haha lol great video !!
😊❤️
You’re smart why keep them when you have upgraded, I do the same thing
Yeah, you're right. Still hurts a little though 😊
@@backintimewatches I know it does but you picked up a reallllly nice one to replace it.
@@backintimewatches honestly id have kept it bc the Tudor is vintage looking and the others are more bling bling. For traveling or every day casual use id use the Tudor and the other for more hanging out at nights, weekends etc.
"And those two guys are the main reasons for this watch departure..."
Would be funny if you then at 26:10 just threw the watch into the ocean.... xD
Just come across your channel. Love your videos thank you
Cool video. What is the music playing at 07:00 during the bridge?
Congratulations for your new baby.
Thank you 😊
Tuder fits you the best
So, does it just have to go? 🙄
Hi ,got a question why is this clasp without the proglide or any other named for the submarine clasp ? ( was that what made you salde it ? ) all the best mate ! Have a great Christmas 🎄
I like this gentleman. However, he doesn't fit the typical watch connoisseur. The tattoos really make the Pespsi dial pop! Glad he found a love of watches.
And I’m glad you found this video and gave me such a nice comment 😊🙏
I'm confused. Didn't you purchase a 126710 BLRO 2 years prior to this video?
Never mind.. I finished the video :)
@@MrDucatiti Hehe, I was just about to answer your question and then I saw your other comment 😊 Thanks for watching, and for finishing 😊
Your life style fits with tudor
Hehe, how so?
@@backintimewatches see oisin u tube about tudor
@@sungmanshin Which one, he has made a couple of videos on Tudor 👍
I don't honestly love Tudor watches but I'm really considering buying thr GMT and a BB58 as they are literally "beater" watches that will retain value no matter what I do to them. And if I just have them lying around it's very likely that they will appreciate in value especially in good condition. I do see Tudor discontinuing the pepsi GMT, the blue bay 58 and probably gilt dial bb58 eventually for other updated models.
This watch is so close to being perfect. I really want it, but not in the way it currently is. It's thick and has a date wheel problem. Solve these issues, and I think it's a real winner.
the new models with a different sn are fixed. been solved after 2020 models. been looking into this bc I want one
Date issue has been fixed. And, its only thick if you have a small wrist. Mine sits perfectly on my 6.5 inch wrist
Awesome video!
Thank you so much. Love your shop! Bought a Fortis B42 official cosmonaut from you guys 👍
Incredible video brother, new sub here!
I actually bought this over the Omega 😂😂 we switched
Great video. Many thanks 🙏
Thank you, both for watching and commenting :)
Your video is so good, nice presentation
Thanks man 🙏❤️
Sad time love my tudor gmt my a keeper ❤️
Me to
Personally and just me, I’m not in love with the speed master.
Que reloj, traes en ese vídeo??
Lycka till med förlossningen!
Tusen tack ❤️
Brilliant review thanks. 🧡 🇬🇧
I think the Tudor is much more nice. It's a real tool watch. The Master II has became too shiny, too blingy, too much show off as the Sub. I don't like the nouveau riche path Rolex has choosen for certain watches.
The San Martin homage is very very good for the money
It looks too small to your wrist
I’m not
Lol you love it but you don’t wear it… Yeah, we’re so sure you love it
Now is not the time to be buying steel rolexs. Way overpriced
Just wait till they raise the retail prices because of inflation 🤔🤔🤔
Köp kepsar för pengarna :D
A video from a guy bragging having a new Rolex and omega.just pathetic
Yes, utterly pathetic… 😂
Hi mate , do not put a mechanical watch ( Tudor, Rolex maybe but….) there are big magnets 🧲 that will change your watch accuracy mate ! Just one opinion! Very cool watches you have in your collection, I bet You’ll be addicted to luxury watch’s , another thing if you are a watch fan we’re them man ! All the best mate ! Mate 🧉
Not a problem with the Omega though
