a decent review, good pics. i don't agree with the U1 'similarities' re:the dial and markers...that's a reach.

Good review.
My understanding was Tudor and Rolex are no longer related. He says they still are.

Where did you hear that ??

Tudor is still made by Rolex. It's their company, but of course not for sale in US for some silly reason.

Interesting, I thought Tudor was a subsidiary of Rolex and all repairs for Tudor go through Rolex...

I'd take that as a compliment. Ariel Adams generally has godawful taste in watches from what little of his stuff I've read.

You probably see "another one in your future" for every watch you've owned.

I liked my Pelagos and only sold it to fund others, which is always the situation.... :(
