I think its perfectly alright for Tudor to remove the more 'functional' aspect of the Pelagos 42 for the 39, ultimately they're looking to sell it as a 'fashion' accessory with some dive functionalities vs the other way around. The marketing material made that quite clear too.

As for colour options, I'm sure in the next few years they'll introduce more colour choices, similar to what they've done with the BB58 line.

But having said all that, just the proportion of the BB58 alone makes me a bigger fan of it vs the pelages 39

Pelagos 39 function is same as BB58 now, except the titanium. At the respective price point makes BB58 look like a better deal. Unless you fancy the titanium.

The titanium does make the watch a lot lighter to wear, and the quick adjustment clasp on the bracelet is pretty great. But agree still think the BB58 is a better deal, don't think those features justify the price difference unless you really really want them

You'd do well with the 39. If anything, less regret. WF own the same sizing scheme too.

I'm a relatively big guy and like the 58 but 39mm seems a tad too small on the wrist. lol I went for the 41mm instead.
