Thanks everyone for the responses. My heart is saying the Speedy, so hope to get it soon.

Also, just saw this video uploaded today about the Pro GMT having a date issue (similar to the Tudor Pepsi GMT issue).

Uhoh. First I've seen about the Pro...but I also don't go looking.
Slightly different problem than the Pepsi, but still a problem...hopefully just a random one.

Right now my only high-end watch is a black, non-wave SMPc (212.30.41.20.01.003). Looking to get a chrono or GMT watch (never owned a watch with those functions before).

Really like the classic Moonwatch (Hesalite version, 3861 mov.), and the new Tudor BB Pro GMT (my AD has both). These are some of the pros/cons so far I've seen:

I know these two are quite different, but which one would you go for? My wrist size is 6.5 in

BTW: value retention is not an important factor since I very seldom sell my watches.

Omega Speedmaster 310.30.42.50.01.001:

Pros:

Classic and timeless design, with a rich history
Better proportions for my 6.5. in. wrist
METAS certified

Cons:

More expensive
Has non-sapphire crystal
50m WR, with printed logo

Tudor Black Bay Pro GMT:

Pros:

In house-movement
200m WR
Less expensive

Cons:

Very thick and heavy
Not a homage per se since Rolex owns Tudor, but is less original design wise than the Speedy; since it resembles very much the vintage Rolex Explorer from the 70's.
Has riveted bracelet, which I'm not a huge fan of


Both great but Speedie here for me... Tudor I find a little top heavy on the wrist!

How is this even a question?

The Speedmaster is legendary and always in style. The Tudor was designed for people who don’t have the means to get a Rolex.
