A true diver
This watch has a lot to offer from its features to its titanium case, it has all the bells and whistles that a dive watch should have for just over $200 is insane value. The PT5000 is reliable the bracelet is great with its toolest adjustability the sapphire crystal, screwdown crown plus manual and auto winding is great! The lume is insanely bright very light on the wrist due to it being titanium. Be aware that durability wise the titanium case is very easily scratched so if your someone who likes to wear bracelets with your watch be carful what you pair with it. Overall the watch looks amazing! If you are considering buying its worth the money...

Does not keep time
So, this watch looks great. It is a nice Tudor copy. It has been my daily wear watch for a few weeks and unfortunately is already having issues. I understand a cheap mechanical watch having time issues but I am losing (at random) 2-3 hours a day, which is CRAZY. Please save your money and buy a Seiko dive watch at this price point. I should have done that in the first place but the design of this watch caught my eye. I would say you get what you pay for.. but for this much money you can find a much higher quality watch movement from several well established brands. Lesson learned!

Love the Watch Despite a Couple Issues
I've had this watch for a couple of days now, and overall, I'm impressed. The shade of blue is really nice, though I wish it were a bit lighter to better match the original color of the watch it's homaging. I generally prefer the look and feel of steel, but the titanium case and bracelet look great. I was worried it might be too light weight, but that's not the case.The springy slide-out links to size the bracelet are fantastic. I removed three links and had it properly sized in a couple minutes. It's so much better than pins or screws, I wish all watch bracelets would incorporate this design.The biggest downside for me is the bezel action—it’s quite stiff and has a grinding feel, plus it tends to stick slightly near the top. This is my first experience with the PT5000 movement, and while the winding is noticeably stiff, I understand this is typical for this movement. It's running about +7 seconds per day, which is well within the "acceptable" range.There are minor alignment issues between the bezel insert and dial markers, but nothing that bothers me too much. Lume isn’t a priority for me, so I have no strong opinions on that.Despite some quirks, the watch looks and feels high-quality. I’m considering picking up the black version sometime soon.

Wonderful 39mm blue homage
Not very many homages of the 39mm Pelagos and this one ticks all the boxes. Same size, same material (titanium) a PT5000 movement which is the closest the far east has gotten to an ETA 2824-2 4hz movement and best of all offered in blue unlike the original in black only. Lumen is fantastic and sized for my 17cm wrist weighs only 89 grams.

Looks great, runs great
Let's get this out of the way, the band is adjustable, another reviewed claimed it's not. The toolless links system is brilliant. Ive never sized a watch so quickly. Funnily it's not mentioned in the manual that came with my watch but I had watched reviews so I knew how it worked already. This is a really attractive Pelagos homage that delivers at the price point. Feels light on the wrist and quality of finish is very high, which I expected already having a Thorn BB58.

Watch is attractive, but came with no adjustment for watchband
Attractive watch, however, there was no way to adjust the watchband. Normally there are pins or screws and this watch came with a little screwdriver, but no screws or pins on the band as if you just had one big wrist and no need to adjust the band therefore I’m returning it and I am disappointed.

Beautiful but defective with lack of quality control
This is a beautiful homage to the Tudor P39 - unfortunately this example looses 4 minutes per day and the bezel won't turn without getting stuck. I suppose these issues could be addressed, but there is no wiggle room on a sub $200 watch really.

Band Adjustment is simple if not intuitive.
Very nice watch. Writing this because I had to search for information to adjust the band as mine came without any instructions. To adjust you simply pull out the side of the link on the crown side and twist to expose the pin and slide off. Simple if not intuitive.
