The Tudor Black Bay 54: What Reviewers DON'T SAY! (3 months of owning)

[@patrickhartmann1540]

I have both the 54 and 58 and for me, the 54 is the perfect sized watch as I prefer thinner 36-38mm cases on my 6.5” wrist. I also love the 54’s more truly vintage look. That said, it doesn’t feel as sporty or “divery” as the 58. So for something more elegant and vintage, 54. For a more sporty presence, the 58.

[@andrewchilton9685]

I have a 6’2”, 240lbs, with an 8.5” wrist. Tried it on at a boutique. Absolutely loved it, thought it looked awesome. Wear what you love!

[@klukcomilujehudbu]

Lose some weight, or you might die.

[@maitrehg]

The bracelet was probably too small for you.

[@thomasstrange1826]

Hoping they do the smaller version of the ranger in the next few years. The 54 is definitely on my list, with this smaller size, finishing, clasp, and movement.

[@EvanderHolyfieldsLeftEar]

I purchased the BB54 for my birthday 2 months ago and have worn it every day since. Here are my two cents: - I have relatively thin wrists, and the size and weight are absolutely perfect for me. - No issues with pip alignment. It's exactly where it needs to be. - Lume is beautiful, but fades quicker than expected. Could be better but it's not a big issue. - Keeps very accurate time. Mine runs about +1-2 seconds per day. - The faux rivets aren't the best, but it's not a deal breaker. As Britt mentioned you barely notice them when wearing it. And now for my all time favorite thing about this watch...the dial. It's advertised as black, but it's actually closer to a very dark, burnt brown. Like a black coffee almost. That with the gold hands and brown text really, REALLY makes this dial a one of a kind.

[@watchpapi]

The dial is beautiful and something nobody seems to dwell on, I love it too.

[@Helmspete7961]

If pip alignment is not lined up perfectly to compass points is can be a sign of fake watch or inferior watch part supplier

[@DodyChai]

When you said that the lume fades quicker, is it able to last you through the night?

[@EvanderHolyfieldsLeftEar]

@@DodyChai not really. I don't purposefully blast the lume with light before bed, so it glows with whatever ambient light it's managed to gather before I hit the hay for the night. By the time I wake up, the lume has faded to a barely perceptible level. I don't think it has to do with the quality of the lume, but rather to the size of the indices themselves. Given that it's a small dial, and the indices are relative to the overall size, there's simply not enough lume to go around. That being said, I've never looked at the watch, be it during the day or at night, and were unable to tell the time.

[@DavidDatura]

That red bezel triangle on the black gilt dial BB58…I just love it so much! Just goes so well with that dial. I love it so much, I simply can’t consider any other Black-Bay that doesn’t have that combo. Not even other variations of the BB58 itself! And including this BB54. Just crazy stuff 😆 now Tudor just add that micro-adjust clasp. It’s well overdue! Thus perfection would ensue.

[@olaaf_eu9]

@@miguelarguello7113 Yes, there is, depending on your location. This is a relatively new and popular watch, thus the demand is still very high.

[@dannyg6592]

Hi Britt, I really think there is room in your collection for both Tudors. And since you promised me you wouldn't sell it, gifting it to a nephew also sounds like a very groovy idea! Re: the 54 - I am looking forward to seeing one in person. It would be the chef's kiss with a red triangle (one of my favorite features of my beloved 58). Cheers!

[@infinity2x0]

Britt! Can't believe it's been 3 months, congrats. I still can't get past the bezel color silver not matching the gilt color of the dial. For me the 54 isn't vintagey looking enough lol. I feel that especially for summer, having such an adjustable clasp is really important and I wish more watches offered this regularly. I say that you shouldn't sell your 58, you'll come back to it's lovely blue hue in due time.

I took a chance at Heathrow Airport, popped in before going to a lounge a few weeks ago, low and behold they had one, bought it on the spot, fits perfectly. 6.5" wrist. Already scratched it of course, but hey, it already has some good stories. On the pip issue, all good as well, however I did notice the pip was out on a P39 in store when I was comparing with th BB54.

[@BIllyleung80]

Same here having both BB54 and BB58. I just change the strap with the BB58 into even more casual look and then it’s fine. No need to struggle which one to wear depending on the dress code.

I've had experience of shoddy Tudor QC. My GMT went back after they fixed the date issue for a smudged minute hand and then it came back with a badly misaligned bezel. In 2021 Tudor had my watch more than I did.

[@travr6]

Tudor black bay. Never heard of it. Thanks for making the first video about it.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

LOL. You're very welcome ;) Saw a real gap in the market ;)

[@seezyc158]

Can I just say that your eye for real world detail is so thoughtful. Pip misalignment drives me crazy and I have had it with Rolexes, Blancpain and Omega - it’s unforgivable QC laziness! As for the BB54, it has its place on the right wrist, as do all the BBs which is what makes the sizing variety so great. But, it’s also a curse - Rolex do not accommodate so much which seems to generate a ‘respect’ and air of supremacy. As for the rivets, they are up there with non-functioning cuff buttons on a suit. It’s like you’re being chaperoned by mummy until you deserve a big boy watch one day with all functioning details. Lastly and said with kindness and respect, you don’t need to worry so much about being honest in your reviews; it’s refreshing and regardless you make your points diplomatically. Adrian might be gutted he missed what you spotted though! Keep it up!

[@markstarmer3677]

Great informative video (as always) I have the bb58 in black and gilt, and I’m very pleased with it. My wrist size is 7 - 1/2” and sits perfectly. The bb54 is a good shout for the smaller wrists, and the differences are interesting between the two. My personal preference is the 58. All the best from England.

[@unaeem88]

This watch costs less than a service on the majority of my collection (AP, Rolex, Lange and FPJ)…yet I wear this one almost everyday since I got it 2m ago. It’s incredibly good value. Also bought the rubber strap, but yet to switch. Anyway, great work Tudor

The faux rivets are why I was happy to buy my 58 on the (excellent) leather. Bought the Forstner bracelet without rivets 😏 and with their FlexLink... One spring loaded link giving 5mm of stretch.. it's excellent ....

[@ricardorgomez]

Good review. I got turned onto Tudor by Teddy B with the Black Bay Burgundy METAS. I'm not into Divers as I think they are just too trendy and hipster-sh. But I'm digging this watch brand/model. I love the burgundy. Someone mentioned they put on a black/red RubberB strap on it for daily use. That would look super sharp and less blingy. Which is what I want for a daily driver. Glad you included pictures of you and your husband's wrist with the watch and realized one thing: The case looks like it takes more space on his wrist. While his wrist may be bigger, it's probably a more rounded shape vs. rectangular like yours. So on his wrist, you don't see as much the band as much as on yours. So yes, people should try on the watch before making judgements. Great video!

Good clip Britt. The BB lug, I personally really dislike how they’ve just re-used the lugs from bb58, looks completely out of proportion. I can see the attraction and a solid concept but not for me.

[@davenordsieck6444]

I’ve tried this on, and it is a THIN 11.9mm - wears so nicely, yet certainly does not feel fragile. T-Fit is excellent; they need to roll it out on all their watches. They still need to offer half links so you can correctly size the bracelet and still take full advantage of the range of adjustment. Thankfully UncleStrap makes half links. That solved the issue for me on my Pro, but Tudor just needs to offer these. They also need to drop the faux rivets. The nicest thing anyone ever says about them is “they aren’t that offensive - you end up forgetting they are there.” There are no defenders. Drop em!

[@BrittPearceWatches]

YES! 11.9mm is larger on a not-dive-watch. Like a field watch it would feel chunkier. But on a dive watch, with bezel and domed sapphire, it really won't feel too large. :) I couldn't agree more with everything said here!

[@duncanhamilton5841]

T-Fit and/or half links for my smiley face BB41 would get mine off Chrono24, that's for sure. I've managed to find it comfortable once, for about an hour, in 2 years of ownership. Possibly the most frustrating watch I've owned.

[@johnt2694]

Really do like the 58 and 54 portion and the vintage look. Just wished Tudor would have a ceramic option.

[@RedwoodAggie]

Great review, as usual. The 54 is really a great release. I've tried it on the wonderful rubber strap. While I ended up finding it a bit small for my 7.25" wrist and looking like a toy diver in a full mirror photo at the AD, it does wear bigger than 37mm would imply. I think for a lot of non-giants out there, it will be a nice compact wearing experience. I saw it on the wrist of an owner at Windup Chicago on a not quite as big wrist/person and it looked brilliant. I hope Tudor will add those refinements to the BB58 in the next year or two, especially T-fit. I implore people to go by more than specs and actually try on watches if possible. The same diameter watch can wear very differently. As for me, the Pelagos 39 wears like a great compact diver on my wrist, reminiscent of a vintage Sub, which I also tried on recently. If Tudor releases a blue Pelagos 39, I pity my wallet.

[@jackarthur5312]

Love the insight, so thank you. Your nephews should say, “you have awesome Greek goddess hair, aunt Britt!” If they really wanted the BB58! I love both of the watches (54 & 58)!

[@endusima]

Scary story: My Bb54 had a misaligned lume pip and Tudor refused to fix it stating that it was "within error margins". My AD even asked them twice to clarify since The pip was misaligned by quite alot. In the end the AD decided to change the insert free of charge since they thought it was ridicolous.

Excellent review. Mine is perfectly aligned with 12 marker. I have owned Tudor smiley, Non smiley, 58 tudor and now 54. I find 54 the best because I have 6 and 3/4 inch wrist. Also what I have observed is 54 is much more scratch resistant than other black bays. Not sure if Tudor has played around with the alloy or something. However your’s is nice review and to the point. The British guy review is good but too long and the dragging of coffee into every video makes it less appealing 😮.

The bezel problem u talk about is not a problem i do believe. Because there is a small lock system on the bezel when the triangel is positioned at the 12 o'clock marker.

Re: the bezel, my FXD came with a misaligned bezel! Rolex said the tolerance for Tudor is different for Rolex, so when I went to the HQ for something else I got the bezel taken off an realigned. Great for me who lives in London, not so great for others. If you get one and your AD has a watchmaker, ask them to do it.

[@watchpapi]

On the press piece Adrian got it was more that the printing of the bezel and the hole for the lume pip were off. Could be fixed fairly easily with a new insert I guess, rather than adjusting the ratchet position.

I’ve always felt that the BB58 was chunky and two dimensional/bland (slabs of metal on the sides of the case).

Finally had a chance to try on the 54 and it wears fantastic…but I’m still keeping my 58. I still love the gilt bezel that gives the 58 a warm touch, red triangle gives a pop of color and pays homage to the Rolex Big Crown, the large coin edge crown with matching bezel makes it unique and the crown borrows the look of the Rolex Big Crown, and I love the snow flake seconds hand. It is so unique in design as opposed to the now more common lollipop. I have no doubt the 54 is going to cannibalize sales from the 58 because of its proportions, better clasp and more derivative looks, but I feel a lot of the design aesthetic that made the 58 different and cool have been taken away. I think if you want a vintage styled tool watch with a bezel then go with the 54. If you want a modern sized dive watch with vintage cues that is not an exact replica of past models, but has its own unique design then go 58.

I have had mine for nearly the same time. The 54 is one of my favourites and is worn most days. I have the same dilemma with the 58s. Do I keep them or not. I swap between the 54 and the Ranger. Tudor nailed this release IMO. It is the mini sub style vintage look without owning a sub. Great vid Britt ❤

[@MrKrugoval]

This idea just came to my mind... Black bay 54 with the Tudor Ranger rubber leather strap... I think it would look fenomenal.

[@salty5402]

Britt! BB54 fits you great, you are being too modest!! Agree on a BB GMT in a smaller size being such great opportunity for Tudor. I will say though, Tudor is leaning very heavy into variants of BBs, vice maybe offering new/updated models outside the BB line(s). It is almost to the point, IMO, that the branding of Black Bay is overshadowing the actual brand, Tudor, in the minds of consumers.

SALTY IS HEEEERE! How did I not see these comments?! Ahhh you’re much too kind! And I couldn’t agree more with everything said here. I love Tudor so much but they are leaning a bit too heavy in the BB line and just putting too many lines under the BB umbrella.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Even in this video at 2:00 I confused the BB58 and the BB58 😅 and I’m a watch geek! I’m one of the people deep in on this shiz! I imagine it’s quite confusing for the non-geek-customer

[@Ronaldalan114]

Unless one is a minimalist, why get rid of the BB58. I acknowledge my collection of watches is a bit too much, 15 never see wrist time, 6 are the true rotation, but I have 4 fall only watches (due to color). I don’t know, I just like having them and seeing them all the time. Great vid, thank you for posting.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Well! I’m not a minimalist! Sooooo I better keep both! 🙈💕💕💕💙

@@BrittPearceWatches I like that. Good call lol

Cool segment Brit! I’m OCD (too?) about my watches and vexed plenty over what I perceive to be my new Datejust date not centered in the window. I even called Rolex and went to an independent jeweler. I do believe it’s off and have looked through a loupe too many times. It’s probably “in spec” and now I just forget about it… mostly. I vexed over my JLC Master Control minute hand having a spec of wiggle when setting it sometimes and called the sales rep who says her JLC does the same. Huh? Not cheap, folks. FINALLY, agree with you on adding green to the mix but Harrod’s is a very special green; like THE Harrod’s Signature Green so there’s plenty of other hues in the green ether! Again, I’m waiting for Absinthe!

well well, nice but first I have to say hello and a very happy sunday to the one and only Bond Girl 😇😎😅

Happy Sunday to YOUUUU!! And you weren't too far off of first! ;)

Great video and content!

Amazing video ❤

[@snowbongo]

First time viewer...well done, and the 54 and 58 look great on you! I have a 7.4-inch wrist and found the BB54 to be a tad small, despite knowing it's "vintage." A 38-mm diver from Tudor would be the sweet spot for me. Keep up the great work!

Would love to see a blue or green bezel, and harrods had the green bezel but it’s bezel markers are different. Also, I’d rather see a green in the color of the Rolex for the bezel (but in aluminum). Great vid! Cheers

[@BrittPearceWatches]

Ahhh I couldn’t agree more!!! More colours needed. 💚👏🏻

I'd love to see this in a GMT, with a less boring case, different movement and hands, non-faux rivet bracelet, and last but not least, some other name (except Rolex) on the dial. Other than those small issues I think this is an amazing watch.
