Im quite partial for the Tudor Hydronauts which was a long way from being a poor man Rolex.

Fine, but I still see the 'poor man Rolex' as a pretty decent choice and a 1 watch choice that could see you through your life especially from a 70's man point of view. I'm sure anyone buying a Tudor Sub in the 70's wasn't really poor.

Cos it's shit?

I'm a bit biased but I'd say this Hydronaut is the best one
It's a great watch and would be the one I'd keep if I could only keep one watch but I'm not sure I'd say it's Rolex quality (which is probably why it only cost me about £1k).

The Kenissi-made movements aren’t really any better than the ETAs. And Tudor keep pumping the prices up. The Pelagos 39 is within £500 of the RRP of an Oyster Perpetual in 2019.
I guess they are still tracking at about half the price of the “equivalent” Rolex though.
For a while it looked like they were going to develop more of their own personality but they seem to be being reined back to being the “poor man’s Rolex”. Which was the original aim tbf.
