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 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

Friends: Wishing you a great weekend ahead! Both the BB58 and SN FH IPA are highly recommended 😎 Cheers! 🍻
