Tudor Pelagos Ultimate Buying Guide | | | | | | Don't Break the Bank Tudor Pelagos – Ultimate Buying Guide Many of us are old enough to remember when Tudor still wore the ‘poor man’s Rolex’ tag. Despite living in the shadow of its illustrious parent company for much of its history, it always struck us as a harsh assessment of an excellent brand, even during its more inconspicuous times. Today, this label is just flat out wrong. Tudor may still be cheaper to buy than the average Rolex, but the gap between the two as far as quality and innovation is concerned has narrowed a lot. Tudor has a long and illustrious dive watch ancestry, supplying many of the world’s underwater combat fighting units in the past. The Pelagos range is where the best of that military heritage meets the best of the brand’s most recent innovations, wrapping it up in a luxury tool watch you might actually take diving. Below, we take a closer look at this somewhat unsung hero of the Tudor line and discover just how good it really is. | | | | | | | | | | One From the Archives Pilot Watches Buying Guide – Everything You Need To Know Watches developed for use while flying date back to the early 1900s when Louis Cartier created the “Santos” for his friend and Brazilian aviation pioneer, Alberto Santos Dumont.
