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.

the smaller and slimmer 39 version - however Tudor new 37mm is also very tempting

BB58 at 39 already small for me, the BB54 even more so...

Had a look at them in Pavilion Tudor. I must say the 54 is very nice but it just feels so small for me. Requires a major mindset shift for me at least. I'm most comfortable with 40-44mm.

I have a small wrist and tried on the BB54, much prefer that over the BB58 and the t-fit clasp fits really well too.

The 54 is nice, especially like the idea if the T-Fit clasp and the rubber strap being available right off the bat. But. 37mm is just too small for me - the 58 will do just fine.

I used to wear bigger watches. But now this is my biggest watch and the rest don’t get much wrist time.

I am leaning towards smaller watches these days as I’m getting older.

I recently let go a bb58 blue with a tudor ranger bracelet for just 10.6k and regretted like crazy.. just loved how it just sits flat on the wrist and the lightness of it

i prefer the black bay 54 because it doesn’t have the red colouring on the bezel pip. Size wise I tried on the bb 58 on my 16.5cm wrist and it was fine.

I prefer bb58 as my wrist size isn’t big. So, it looks better as compared to the other.
