The Best First Watch | Tudor Black Bay 58

[@simonwright6882]

I still can't get enough of my 58 after 2 years of ownership. It's a keeper for life!

[@rolandjuhasz1645]

Do you miss the T-fit?

@@rolandjuhasz1645 The t fit would definitely improve the wear but uncle seiko make a half link which solves the problem. A 4th mico adjustment should have been implemented by tudor in the first place.

For me I feel that the BB58 will always on the top of the Blackbay lineups. The color and the overall aesthetic is timeless. I fall in love with it when I got it, and I still in love with it till today.

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Agreed, they definitely seem to have put a lot of thought into the first one!

[@themightysquid]

I have the BB58 for 2 years. I wouldn’t recommend it as your first watch because you probably won’t want another watch after this. It gets the most wrist time of all my watches and I never stop being amazed at it’s beauty and functionality. The snowflake hour and second hand make for the best readability than any watch I own. When the sun hits it just right and the gold tones pop it’s simply breathtaking and I forget to actually read the time.

I'm wearing a BB58 (black) as I watch this. I wear it by choice over my Rolex's. It has the perfect look and size for me. I don't at all understand your complaint about the dial. It's a pretty standard diver configuration.

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Good question. It's a beautiful watch. But to my eyes, the Rolex sub has round shapes (mercedes, lollipop, hour indices). The Tudor pelagos for example has square shapes instead. The BB58 mixes the two and that bothers my esthetic sense.

Closer up, my favourite thing is the rich, round, 'ploppy' gold dust text and chapter ring application. The way it can shadow and catch the light, so round bodied. So much depth. It really adds a lot of character imo, versus, say a sub with simple, flat print white text that is shrewd and cold.

[@abrahamelgin4620]

It is the perfect watch. I don't even like divers! In fact, I would say I hate them. This is the ONLY one. Only other one I would consider is a Seamaster '57 Heritage. But the 58 wins imo. So much warmth and thousands less. I've heard every critique on the 58, so go for it. My love is unwavering and eternal. The good, the exceptional, far outweigh any possible nit-picking. If anyone can think of a better daily for what you get for your money, I'll gladly wait. Future classic 💯. Untouchable, timeless design. Generational icon.

[@morganthedruid1]

I do hope you are foreshadowing, that bronze in 39mm would be amazing and you're the man to make it happen Max. I love the BB58 but it is a small Black Bay and the Black Bay line is seen as Stepping Stone watch much like the Oris Divers 65 and many other really lovely sub £3K dive watches. Tudor need a destination luxury dive watch, I think they should have made the whole range of the Black Bay available as 39mm alternatives to keep us all happy then made something amazing , imagine a 38mm precious metal 9401 Submariner, something well over $10K, beautifully vintage and a real statement. 3 beers in Max and getting carried away 😂

[@ronpower7790]

Personally I think the dial layout of current BB models is genius...nothing clashes for my eyes. What I could the BB line and BB58 accuse of, is that these obviously aren't real dive or tool watches...many other watches are too, but that is something that is very prominent in the BB line. While I think Omegas Seamaster 300 is an rather ugly watch, its more of its own thing without trying to be a remake of something. On the other hand, there is no real alternative if it goes for a classic and classic sized dive style watch without any unnecessary fuss. Most other contenders are 41 or 42, which rule them out for me. Just got my BB58 and really like, while not loving it (yet)...was eyeballing a 5 digit sub, but these made a price jump withing the last 2 years, which I cant see myself spending for such a rather simple watch.

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

All great points Ron, it's a fantastic watch especially at its price! The design aspect is very subjective

I agree the the dial lacks a little bit of the macro detail. However, I think the case and bezel make up for that, at least for me. The form and subtle curves of the case and the bezels fine refined knurling are what allows such a bold and somewhat unrefined dial to shine. The watch as a whole design is really quite brilliant. I could do without the snowflake hands though.

Yeah, if they just got down to 3 shapes (e.g. pelagos + BB bronze), then I think my eyes would appreciate it much more, but that's very subjective. Agree the other details are dead on!

It’s dinner the models with the in-house movements… Although 42 mm as a lug to lug of only 48...I guess I need to try on both...I have a 7 1/2 inch wrist so I am thinking proportionally 42mm might be the way to go...thanks for the great review....as always!

Cool review. Did you have any issues with sizing the bracelet? I noticed you use 4 and 6 links on either side of the clasp which is my configuration as well.

I've been thinking about the tudor style in black dial, or something like a carrera? But I recently have been watching a lot of videos on tudor black bay. Especially the 58 in blue on bracelet. It looks really nice and I think would be perfect for my first lux piece but ..I think it won't be a statement piece or a visually stunning piece? Haven't seen it in person. I've read a lot where they say the black bay is just very understated almost muted and the vintage aspect of it just doesn't make it look like a lot of luster in appearance. Also , i have too many divers. But i dont just want to get a dress watch just to fill the evening watch statement watch when my gut says bb 58? I don't know. I haven't seen one in any store near me.

Good visuals on this video. One note about the geometric shapes. This is part of the history of this watch as a tool for the Canadian Navy. One of their requests was to further differentiate shapes from the previous iterations supplied for the Marine Nationale. So for me, I like the story for why we have the shapes on the dial.

I very recently bought the Black Bay 58 Navy Blue on the steel bracelet to compliment a range of predominantly black-dialled watches in my collection that include the classic Rolex Submariner Date 16610 that I've owned for 19 yrs. The Tudor is a super, very well-made luxury timepiece and I appreciate its rather understated blue dial and bezel compared to the 'bling-blue' ceramic of my Omega Seamaster 300. Like-for-like think of the Blue 58 as a more modern take on its original black and gilt sibling. The blue really pops in daylight or in well-lit rooms and a pleasure to wear. Although not quite up there with the Rolex Sub in the absolute quality stakes - but why should it when barely 35% of the retail price - go to an AD and try one on. In-house COSC certified movement, 70 hrs power reserve, staggering lume.... you won't be disappointed.

I hadn't actually seen the Black Bay Bronze dial with the Arabic numerals. That is very cool, and I would love to see that variant on a BB58 model. I don't really have an issue with the shapes, as it is true to the vintage design. I also wonder if Tudor has any plans to slim down the movement in the Black Bay heritage in the 41mm sizing. The thickness of that line is the only thing that makes me hesitate, because I do have a 7.25" wrist that can support that diameter, and not have it look large.

why does everybody get this wrong. Tudor is not a subbrand of Rolex. They are equally both owned by the hans willsdorf foundation and sister companies

"A cacophony of geometric shapes." Well said! The gilt lettering on the bezel for the BB58 is something I'm still not sure I like. Anyway great content!

[@jim_bocho]

Same here. I would love a steel BB58 with the looks of the 925 silver version.

[@marinorossi4594]

This is the only watch you need

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

For most people, that is absolutely true!

Will the bezel Color fades over time

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Yes, over decades 😅

Great video....and drone shots

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Haha, you mean gratuitous drone shots ;)

Haha, thanks Phil... You are the best, right there...you ;)

[@PhilandWatches]

@@WatchCrunchOfficial haha good one 😂Thanks for the watch 😉

[@cedarcanoe]

I agree, for me it is the snowflake hand that is ruining the esthetics of the entire watch

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

The hour hand is pretty darn big. Some find it bold, I find it unrefined.

[@davids9549]

The history of the watch and the Tudor story didn't concern me - I bought it because I thought it looked good. I still do. 18 months on, and it's still my go-to daily wearer. Best on an assortment of aftermarket Natos imo.

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Congrats David, it's a great watch!

[@littleb9298]

I can agree on this: The Best First -Watch- Tudor | Tudor Black Bay 58

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Haha, yes yes it's definitely up there in my book!

[@czondag]

I would love it more when it would have a open back case.

[@leandroleporatti7657]

Hey Max!!!Well,I've always been in love with Tudor B.B.but,I think a cheaper good alternative would be the Eberhard Scafograf mcmlix...for me of course.I'm planning to buy it this years. What do you think?Ciao from Italia and keep it up!!!

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Hey Leandro! The eberhard is a very interesting looking piece. Keep up the hobby and develop your own taste 😁. Cheers

@@WatchCrunchOfficial by the way...where do you live in Seattle?

[@DTL0VER]

I’ve had mine for 6 months now and not really had the time to wear it out because of lockdown. I can’t wait to wear it with my suit on and nice clothes! Then I feel I’ll truly get to love it

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Here's to hoping we all get to put some mileage on our watches in 2021 Gary 👍

Thank you, and appreciate you stopping by :)

[@avarmauk]

I liked this watch so much I bought it’s blue brother too. 🤟🏽

[@MrDerrickChan]

Yes!! I've been fantasizing about a BB58 BRONZE

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Stay tuned 😉

[@chopchopsuey1263]

nice watch, too bad that the metal strap can't be loosen up easily. prolong wearing during the day hurts if the size already just nicely fit.

[@WatchCrunchOfficial]

Yeah, no quick adjustments 😕
