Bro, seeing the nicks and scratches made me feel good about the shape of mine too. Seems like all the watch videos these days have these super pristine fresh out of the box watches with zero wear to it. Thanks for keeping it real - keep it up

Thank you! Yea, I don't baby this watch so much. However, I am a little reckless at times. I need to find that nice balance.

This is why I'll never collect watches it's like ripping pieces off money when it's already slowly blowing away, you should wear a watch to wear it not meant to be sat in a box.

The best way to determine which is your favorite watch is to see which one gets the most wrist time. My BB58 is one of my most worn watches for the past 2 years. Sometimes I’ll put on a different watch, and then end up switching back to the BB58 by the time I leave my home. It never ceases to impress me with its comfort, beauty, and I even like the 60 click bezel.

Ok so I’ve been looking at a Tudor for some time now and a lot of the reviews have been from watch owners with really expensive taste and posh accents. It was refreshing to see a review from someone to earth which I think is what optimises the Tudor brand; aimed at normal people. Really enjoyed the review and I liked the DBZ figures and Naruto figures in the background. Jiraiya is one of my favourite characters! Would love to see a review of the new Tudor BB58 Navy!!!

Good review, I do think your right that the Seamaster is not a timeless design "yet" but in 25 years we will all be wishing we bought an early model. The 58 maybe inspired by vintage watches, the Seamaster is a modern classic in the making.

Thanks Allister! Hmm...great point. In 25 years will the BB58 be a vintage vintage inspired watch lol? Preferences change and you and others are convincing me that mine might for the Seamaster. Thanks for the cool insight!
