New arrival, Black Bay 58

Home from the Tudor Boutique in Tyson's this morning. Picked up my 2026 BB58, Ref M7939A1A0NU-0001 So far I'm finding the 39mm size wears very comfortably on my 7 inch wrist. I do like that this is sporty without being, as the kids would say, "Big Chungus

I don’t have any coherent thoughts for you, but I offer the following…

I don’t think the Chopard, BB58 or the Sub overlap in enough ways that you could not, should not, have all three. The Chopard may be the dressier of the three for sure, and so in that way perhaps I can see why it being the everyday watch is not ideal. I o

Yes, I was completely happy with the BB58 as a GADA until they made me leave it for the weekend.

Because the original thought process before the BB58 was going to be a no-date sub, then a YM42. The wait period changed me to get the 58 as a stop-gap. THEN the lack of delivery created a serendipitous moment and a fortunate siren song. I'm absolutely th

I think the only good advice we (I?) can give you is to do what you feel is right for you.

My personal choice would probably be to stick to the Alpine Eagle and wait for a no-date Sub or Ti YM42. But it depends very much on your lifestyle. Because of its price and build quality, the BB58 is more of a GADA watch than the AE and even the YM42 or

Nice pictures Nico, I love the BB54, I will have to see this new one in person just for the color.

The original BB 54, I specifically like the gilt on the dial.

Thank you for the beautiful photos and review.

Unfortunately, I didn't find the BB54 nice looking on the wrist when I tried it on: the lugs seem to me to be excessively long for the restrained diameter of the dial and bezel. And this blue color is a complete departure from the vintage feel that gave t

Watches and Wonders 2026: Tudor Black Bay 54 Blue.

The Black Bay 54 Black was issued in 2023. The good idea was to offer to this watch a smaller ( 37 mm ) and thinner case ( 11, 24 mm, now ). The black dial is gorgeous, and gives to this watch a vintage look which reminds us of the, or should I say THE vi

This was the second...

The first was one of the new/updated Tudor Black Bay 58s, black/gilt dial with the 5 link bracelet as a daily driver. I had planned on picking it up, unfortunately the AD asked those of us on the list if we would defer pickup until Monday so the limited i
