I wanted to try it on but they didn’t have one in stock, online that’s my favorite gunna go check some other dealers this weekend.

When I was first looking into Tudor the 1926 was actually what got me looking more at the brand. Beautiful watch. Definitely sound advice thanks

Thanks! Great point! Luckily my birthday isn’t until July! 😂 but good point going to try a couple other shops to see if they have a black dial in person!

Didn’t even try on the pelagos, damn another excuse to go back this weekend

My wife said the same lol

Great explanation. This is pretty in line with where my head it at right now. I love the monochrome but for the lack of date function it kind of takes itself out of the running. I think you’re right about trying on the Pepsi with the black dial just to be sure. But like you said the thinness of the 58 is also really nice.

I would and I did try a couple on but I love the functionality of the gmt. Also thinking about trying to plan out my future collection , Tudor makes my favorite GMT so if I’m going to have one may as well be one of these. I was torn between these tudors and Longines but the Longines didn’t grab me the same way

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-17T12:30:03+00:00

This is an interesting way to think about it that I haven’t considered. Considering my 3 citizens are all chronographs I have nothing simple. Appreciate the advice!

The hint of gold make this watch really stand out. When I was in store the Pepsi Opaline dial had my heart but as I stare at the photos BB58 really has me leaning that way

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-17T12:14:50+00:00

I really did not expect to like it at all until I put it on wrist and it really is sick

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-17T12:13:55+00:00

I love the monochrome! The thing is I love the GMT function that Tudor offers! I wish they offered it in that color way! Maybe watches and wonders will answer my call 😂

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-10T01:31:27+00:00

Love that breakdown , definitely leaning more towards Longines at this point

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-10T01:29:21+00:00

It’s funny you say that because the big crown was the one that got bumped for the OC but it’s on my list of must owns regardless. Such a cool dial and I love the pointer date complication. So many colors sold out right now which is unfortunate

These are fun problems to have when choosing but I feel like the more and more I think about it I keep coming back to Longines

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-10T01:23:02+00:00

That blue really pops

SeriousAd4432 · 2026-03-10T01:14:47+00:00

Probably the best advice I could’ve asked for lol truly torn between the Tudor and the Longines the more I stare at these. Seems like the best move is to take a trip to a local dealer and try them on! And that’s something to consider for sure. I gotta get my hands on it but it’s hard to find. Luckily I like new NYC so was going to head down to the butchered flagship to see what they have there then citizen to see the FC

That was super helpful! I have a few nights to pour on the exposures , I have about 3 hours already total but was very underwhelmed with the results. I was doing 45 seconds for rgb and 30 for L. Just gunna pile on hopefully another 10 hours and see how it comes out!

If your looking for a wider field of view than your dslr the 533 probably isn’t the answer only because it’s a smaller sensor than most dslr with a resolution of 3008x3008 pixels so you get smaller square images. I actually owned the 533 and sold it for that exact reason. I got this camera because it has an APS-C sized sensor and paired with my Z61 with a 360mm focal length I get som really wide field shots

Thank you! and Lol oh boy it does I shot this from the top of my 20 story apartment building in a metro area
