Anyone have any info on this?

No. Mind to share more info?

Typical secrecy, your guess is as good as mine. Well it's only 2 days away.
@Jedirat, Tudor has been dropping daily hints on their instagram page.

Tks, bro.

The Tudor fans army has been all over this for the past week. It is a fun, if not a bit biased, read. (Biased because a lot of the guesses are what the person actually wants Tudor to announce)
Apparently the latest clue on the Tudor instagram account - "For Those Who Like Macchiato" - kinda threw everyone off balance. I guess we will know tomorrow (or later tonight our time).

Ok just heard it is going to be a red pelagos! destro version.
-
Pelagos in red on the dial
Vintage patina on the lume
Inhouse Movement (4 Line Dial)
Destro (Left side crown)
Pelagos text in red, or red dial Pelagos? Going to be interesting to see how bright that matte red (if it ends up being a red dial) will be. But meh 4-liner.

Would be nice if they make a come back with subs..their IG flooded with subs pics earlier

beautiful. would be a good purchase if only 1) it wasn't left handed and 2) it wasn't so big at 42mm.
good effort though Tudor.

Only change was the LHS crown and numbered caseback? (can't see anything else different from the website)

The red font for Pelagos
-
For the BB line > the pelagos line.
Also for me black bay bronze > LH pelagos unless I can get a LH Pelagos with number 888

I have seen some live pics from IG.
BBB totally trumps it for me.
-
+1 for the BBB. Can't wait to get hold of mine :)
-
It's got roulette date ring. Red color for even days and black for uneven days I believe. Major move forward for Tudor as a brand.

I'm not a fan of this. My excitement went down the drain, really.
I've been made to understand that the Black Bays are more of a collective interpretation of the older vintage Tudor Subs and the Pelagos is a modern dive watch with all the bells and whistles. But now they apply vintage cues to the Pelagos and it just doesn't work for me. The markers just looks a bit weird with the vintage lume (not very vintage looking I must say) on modern hands and square markers. And the roulette wheel...what's the point of that?
Very bold move, will have its fair share of lovers and haters. I just hope they're not taking the Panerai route (bronzo, destro, what's next?) but looks like it's going that way. I guess the departure of ex-Tudor chief designer David Cerrato who left for Montblanc really changed Tudor's whole design and product strategy.

Whale sharks on black date days and mantas on red ;D

Hmm... As much as I love the Pelagos, I honestly can't see the point of this launch. And to hype it up at all seems a big let down IMO.
Changing a few colours of the word Pelagos, the datewheel, and lume is considered a "launch"? Thankfully the left hand side crown at least makes it functionally useful for those who care about that.
-
the left hand crown is the most cost effective for Tudor, because they flip the case 180 degree from right hand to left hand position, wala...new case.

I think there's more to it than that. Maybe a sifu here can tell us better, but I wonder what direction the crown will wind? They also have to re-arrange where the date wheel sits relative to the movement don't they?
-
for movement definitely needed some tweaking
as for the case, the way i look at it, same case just different assembly position
-
Its just a simple tweaking..other movements have also done it b4

the only tweak they probably have to make is just to print existing dials upside down, so as to accomodate the dial feet positions when the movement is flipped.
everything else remains the same :P
winding should still be the same if u have the crown on the right side.
as date wheel is in a circle, it always reads the right way up on the right side also...
now if the date was on the left side, then there would be obvious need for a new date wheel.
-
Kind of underwhelming when saw the pic in other forums. Like the matt dial though

Rolex always does this. The old Deepsea Double Red, 1680 Sub Single Red.....
The idea is exclusivity. That's the game.

Agreeing to adamjohari!
