Short version: this one wins over the Tudor Pelago Short version: this one wins over the Tudor Pelagos. 

Full version:
A while ago I had an interesting discussion with a fellow student at h man and good good friend. I admitted that my trustworthy Tissot Seastar yet again got more wrist time than the Tudor Pelagos. I started thinking in terms of if I would part with one of them, it might well be the Pelly. And that’s exactly what happened.

Better yet; this became my choice for the weekend getaway from my decimated collection. The true watch experience is not correlated much with the price of a watch. I’ve had the pleasure to enjoy a great deal of watches but this one hasn’t left and most likely won’t. The Tudor Pelagos is in good hands, but not mine. And will hopefully get the wrist time it deserves. 🖤🖤🖤
