A first encounter with a BB58
Hi All
There's been lots of comments & posts about the Black Bay 58, but until recently struggled to actually see one!
Had a trip to London in the last week & managed to drop on one and have a proper look. Always nice to get a watch you're interested in your hands rather than just looking virtually.
Also compared it to the standard black bay.

Side by side
Of the two prefer the BB58 as it feels a better size, not so much the diameter - which isn't so noticeable between the two. The main difference for me was thicknesses & heft & general presence on wrist - for me the 58 just sat better.
I'm sure none of this is new, but it's definitely something to think about & perhaps one to add to the ever expanding wish list
Cheers

Both cool watches
Wondering if there's likely to be any new 39mm versions in the near future.
You have a point. A slim, sleek, sexy watch.
The Black Bay 58. My opinion. Put myself on the list with my local ad. Tfs. Geross 😎, it's a real cool watch.
Will post pictures when it arrives.
It's the bracelet version. Meanwhile I hope this suffices. My no date Sub 14060. Cheers 🍻 Geross ...
Thinking about the future
I had on my wrist the 58, superlative and innovative. Perfect size, right thickness. The 41 seems to disappear in comparison.
