Tudor Black Bay “Blue” Chrono + Why it’s One of Their Best?

[@ID-Guy]

Tudor has come a long way. 4 years after the launch of the BB58 Navy Blue and we now see a piece that has all the trimmings. T-Fit, 5 Link bracelet, Brushed dial and as a Chronograph. This Boutique Blue seems like a piece that doesn’t lack much in the detail area (but of course there’s always room for improvement) ;)

[@carlvoxvires]

4 years later, after seeing this model, I wish they'd release a 5 link t-fit bracelet for my BB58 Blue to give it a new lease of life 😂

[@ID-Guy]

@@carlvoxvires Still can't get over it's been 4 years already... But man, we just know the 5-Link is going to be optional everywhere soon enough 😉

What watch are you wearing in this video?

[@levik12]

I purchased the new Tudor Black Bay “Blue” Boutique Edition as a 60th Birthday gift for myself since I always wanted a special proper chronograph watch all my life but thought that my family and business were always priority than me spending a crazy amount of money on a watch! Finally all that changed 2 days ago at the Tudor Boutique in LA’s Century City Mall. I was simply blown away and speechless after seeing the watch in person and on my wrist, so there went my AMEX!!!🤗😎

[@Mench951]

Congrats. Wear it in good health!

[@BLR653]

You hit the nail on the head with pre-owned Tudor pricing. I picked up a very clean BB58 blue for $2500 w the bracelet and Nato strap. The watch is a crazy value at that price!

[@richardwarren2024]

Preowned Tudor is the best bargain in all of watchmaking right now.

[@mrgee007]

Totally agree, but they're only going to get more expensive in the future as the new Tudor watch prices creep up

[@ID-Guy]

It’s great seeing them bring all these parts together, (finally) right? And we both know that the next line will be 39mm, thinner, with all of the trimmings 😉 Have a great weekend brother!

[@AbdulRWatches]

@@ID-Guy Exactly, you read my mind. That is a Tudor way, like the BB with the newer versions being thinner, better ans smaller. Have a great weekend brother 🙏🏽

[@mrszisz1]

Couple of things: *This blue variant looks great!; *I still think that S&G variant is the prettiest (personal taste); *It's still chunky; *Tudor is in a place right now where Rolex was many, many years ago... Actually decent tool watch with a touch of a high end watch making; *Tudor wants to be like an Onega and maybe one day they get there but it's still a case for the future; Great video as always. Keep 'em coming

[@ID-Guy]

Summed it up perfectly man. And I told myself to include the S&G footage in this video… of course I never reminded myself enough 😆 There’s a lot at play with these pieces, Tudor upping their game but still needing to tweak those cases (probably next gen’s models will be in the pipeline) Well said and thanks for sharing this! 🥃

[@anthonystevens8683]

I'm unlikely to see this watch in the flesh but from what I have seen on the web it certainly looks great. I have the panda chrono that I plan to keep as it just works for me. I live too many miles away from most brands boutiques and cant afford or be bothered to take the time off to probably walk out the door with nothing and that's OK. If a brand wishes to use boutique only releases as an advertisement for the brand for the more affluent buyer that's fine as well. It's marketing to elevate the brand that may well boost sales of the brands other products. If it gets more people into the idea of wearing a watch that doesn't need an app and a charge every day then I'm all for it.

[@wescobts]

As always, an incredibly insightful video. I tried the BB chrono on a year ago, great watch, but sadly for me, a little big, a litte heavy, but none the less an amazing watch. Probably for the money, the best chrono out there IMHO.

[@rodsalvador3608]

Blue Zenith chronomasters are really beautiful! I have a Charles Vermot limited edition and the sunray corporate blue is stunning. Anyway, the BB Chrono. I appreciate how Tudor continually refines its products for timeless appeal. These design choices are quite evolutionary and intentional. We're already looking back fondly upon the original Black Bay ETA's and the BB 58. Remember the silly debate over the Pelagos 39 and the sunray finish?

[@extrememike]

I have the panda version and it’s one of my faves. This blue dial with red accents and jubilee bracelet is a winner IMO..

[@ID-Guy]

It’s a great combo of elements, gotta say, all the details don’t leave you wanting 🥃 BUT the more simple monotone pieces are way more versatile 😉

[@marcgirard7551]

Solid discussion as usual! This new release looks great and I agree with your points. I like Tudor’s direction and I love these chronographs… the pink and the blue both offer amazing styling opportunities with NATO straps as well. Tudor has a burgundy NATO that looks amazing with the pink dial version and I bet the blue would look very cool on a blue NATO or a Blue NATO with red or white stripe. Now let’s hope they keep their prices and availability under control.

[@DrBob0910]

Another excellent analysis sir. I look forward to your thoughts on the growth of our global watch community. All the best!

[@joeg9478]

I own the Black Bay Chrono panda and it definitely has some heft, but that’s part of why I love it. I also own a slim 35 mm vintage Girard Perregaux from the 1950s and I love that equally. It’s OK to have some diversity in your watch collection.

[@jhb072]

Hi thanks for your great content as always. Your Zenith comparison is a far more refined choice but also probably at least double the price.

[@dannysimenauer5745]

Tudor continues to bring out watches that are very appealing. Plus the number of new designs come at a steady stream that reminds me of Christopher Ward. Tudor is clearly stepping out of the shadows of big brother Rolex to establish its own identity.

[@defresh4612]

Great watch. I wanted to love it. Tried one on yesterday but ultimately passed. If I needed a daily driver this could have been it - would go with office clothes and weekend. Since I wanted a pure weekend watch this was too much (too nice looking). Prolly could have made some money on it, but I hope it ends up on the wrist of someone who loves it!

[@andrewmunczenski3632]

I got to see one this week at the AD and almost bought it. I have been after a monochrome BB and was able to secure one with a deposit shipped from another store.

[@f_m_b_watch9182]

As always an excellent video - well done 💙💙💙

[@WaterJake]

The problem with this is that you need to see them in person. The reason the Tudor Black Bay aeries (non-58), the chronographs, and the older GMT get tons of hype is thatbthey look great from the front. The reason they nose dive in price and everyone sells them off after 1-2 years is that they are too thick, and that the slab-aided case wears terribly for larger watches. It's especially egegious with steel watches on a bracelet. You need to see these in person to understand this and evaluate them, because videos and photos highlight the frontal shot, the dial design, and all the press highlights the value. But when it comes to the real-life wearing experience, they just don't work dor nose people. It's a huge design flaw with almost all popular Tudor watches. The proof is in the secondary market value.

[@ericdiefel4505]

I agree, I stepped into my Tudor shop last week and they just got this blue boutique model. They had 2 left. I was stoked. UNTIL I tried it on. I have an almost 8" wrist but still felt too thick to me. It is a Beautiful looking watch. But I wear 41 mm submariner and that is a perfect thickness so I just couldn't pull the trigger on the BB Chrono. However I did try on the new BB 58 GMT "Coke" and that watch was about perfectly sized. I loved the feel of that one on the wrist

[@aluxious]

Damn it's fresh. Time to contact ze local boutique

[@ID-Guy]

And while you’re at it, try and hunt down the Boutique Blue Zenith Chronomaster 😉🥃 I don’t even know if they’re available anymore…

[@jaredmotopnw]

Real loved this in the white dial! And they give you a lot at this price point. Just a bit gun shy cause I bought a Pelagos in 2018/19 and quickly got bored of it a few months later. So I sold it and got a Longines Hydroconquest that I haven’t taken off since. Plus, I felt like no one knew what a Tudor was other than the “poor man’s Rolex” stereotype back then. Give it a clear case back and l would run down there today to get one!

[@bullnose01]

For me the five-link bracelet has been a game changer for Tudor. I really don't like the standard faux rivet three-link bracelet. Earlier this year, however, I got a BB Heritage 41 with the new bracelet and T-fit clasp, and it is wonderful. Of course, it looks good, but between the fine tune fitting and the smooth articulation of the bracelet the comfort is unparalleled. I've already busted this year's watch budget, but I'll be keeping an eye on this piece.

Boutique Exclusives and Limited Editions on a pre-existing platform is more of a way of moving stock levels before a transition. Admittedly yes fun colours releases & light cosmetic changes are nothing more than Fuel for FoMo.

[@galaga8834]

When you show the watch next to the the BB58 blue at the 4 min 21 sec mark I see now why I will never sell my example. The blue on the 58 I'd argue is nicer than on the Chrono and has a simpler more contrasting relationship with the indices and handset. I thank you for saving me a stack of money.

[@ID-Guy]

The BB58 blue has a special place and like you, I’d never part with my Blue FXD for that reason. Flat blue hits so hard with contrasting white plots and text 🔥

I think the longines Conquest blue chrono is a fresh take on this watch. Cheaper, similar quality finish and on the rubber strap more modern looking. With the heritage and finishing of Longines, Tudor need to be looking over their shoulder.

I'm a fan of Tudor watches because I think they are such a great value for money with a wonderful design aesthetic. It's interesting you touch on how they are more available now and it's true. I do see Tudor has opened quite a large number of boutiques around the globe over the past year. They opened a new boutique at my local AD and when I visit they have quite a lot of models available. I'll be curious to see how things continue for Tudor because I also see quite a number of "new" watches being sold on the grey market for a hefty discount(and they sell quite quickly). The boutique blue chrono is interesting and wonder if this will be a short lived offering? I originally thought the pink Tudor chrono would be super exclusive when it came out, but I recently bought one at my AD. Did Tudor see the demand and keep making them because they sold so well? No matter, as long as they keep their progression towards METAS movements in all watches and making the Rolex-style updates I'll keep adding them to my collection.

[@007-i6z8v]

This will be my first Tudor! Makes Omega run for the hills...

[@djholmes82]

It nice but it has the Black Bay problem of being large and thick, a bold step would be to do what they did with the GMT shrinking it to BB58 proportions. Creating a BB58 size chrono that is slimmer and smaller would be bold.

[@Anonymouslyme1]

They already make this watch, it’s called the Daytona

[@ID-Guy]

It feels like the natural next step to go BB58 GMT, trim the case thickness (updated movment) dip it down to 39mm’s? We just know it’ll be on the horizon soon enough 😉🥃

[@Doggo-frencton]

The BB Chrono uses the Breitling B0 caliber so they likely have to make it manual wind or design a new movement to get it slimmer. The reality is the current model isn’t that thick but the slab sides of Tudor/Rolex just aren’t that interesting

[@tap2262]

The Tudor 7750-based pre-Tiger “Small Block” 792xx chronographs remain the benchmark for the brand. These watches were elegantly cased and incorporated the best of the Daytona design elements. Additionally, they are vastly underrated. Unfortunately, the configuration of the B01 movement would have a negative impact on the dial layout, but the rest of the design queues could most certainly be incorporated into a new “Heritage” line of chronographs.

[@PanuTiihonen]

I thought the blue phase had gone already, but apparently not. Looks amazing. And I've heard it looks so much better live compared to the renders and adds. Still, I prefer the black chrono out of all the variants. Boring monochrome just works.

[@bbrebozo6417]

The problem is the slabby case weight and size. The TAG Heuer glass box comes in a reverse panda with an hour register and you won’t have to kiss the AD’s ring to get it. It’s also smaller. Tudor is sold by Rolex ADs and they tend to insist on a lot of BS.

[@vvvhhhhhbb]

I am not sure when the shift happens to smaller thinner dainty watches. I particularly like a bold heavy watch and the feel of quality. Suddenly everybody wonders how it will slip under a cuff, and I never see any of these watch enthusiasts even wearing a cuff. No one buys a chronograph to slip under a cuff. I know to each their own, and I don't understand how this became the new gripe. I still love the Pink Panther, still on the list to get one. Keep up the good work mate!

@IDGuy just a quick observation; Our hobby has come to the point where I feel this is the peak of the market where it is greed filled. Look, if you do certain things for the love of money and not for passion or intelligence, you build a hard heart, with a hard heart, you can never have true feelings and emotions. Therefore, greed in this industry will absolutely destroy the passion ppl have for the hobby. There is so much of an elite behaviour in our segment and the latest example is this pink bb chrono, they will make it available to certain figures like Kevin O Leary, he will make a video of it, Watch Society will make a video of it and we the commoners get shut out because we only have money to offer the brand and no exposure. Watch collecting has become to much of an investment hobby but guess what? I promise you they will lose, no one cares about expensive watches when they have no money and the natural state of the global economy is to go up and down. I am having a field day in the secondary right now, 3 years later some watches are still at their retail price, LOL!

[@ID-Guy]

Spot-on Joe. This is why I've never wanted to be in that spotlight (especially during the early 2020's when the numbers for the haute brands (Rolex etc) were crazy)) We are going to see a decline. Made a video a week back where I covered "Grail Watches" and I think in there covered the steady decline in sales, how the markets are down by like 10% and all the rest (not that it matters) 😆 I only ever buy second hand AND what a journey it's been... the last few years, I've found everything and more I'd ever want and the bonus is that they're pieces that nobody really cares about ;) That's the joy of our hobby!

It's a good looking color for this watch. No doubt. However, I don't think I can do screwdown pushers anymore. They're just too fiddly to deal with. I don't think it's that great to have to prep a watch component before you can actually use it. It's something I experienced and made a note of after owning the Sinn 103 klassic 12. A beautiful piece, however, it also has screw down pushers which I found I didn't want to use as much just because they have the screw down pushers.

Seems like it, right? Old case to be phased out for a slimmer 39mm ;)

[@BenMwatches]

@@ID-Guy not a bad prediction 🔥

[@russell996]

I’m liking this blue chrono ❤

[@ID-Guy]

If you can get past the 14.2mm thickness 😉 The colour is right up your alley! Hope you’re enjoying this pitiful summer of ours, sir! 🥃

Tudor is killing it. Gonna get them all. Have the BB 41 burgundy, need this and the coke gmt

[@DennisPost]

I seriously dislike the shiny sunburst dial, just like on the Pelagos 39. But hey…who cares

[@ID-Guy]

There’s a place for them, sure but if all of their collections go this way? Might be an issue 😆 Well said 🥃

[@marcgoldbergdogtrainer]

Old watch plus new color equals hype. That’s a classic Tudor equation. They’ll control supply…build hype…and then magically more and more will appear. I don’t dislike the brand. I have the panda version and like it although its wearing dimensions are a bit ungainly. But there’s nothing new or exciting to see here. Just a bit of marketing.

[@ID-Guy]

The Shield and Crown always seem to have a finger on the pulse of their marketplace. But “let dogs be dogs” as they say 😉 Great seeing you sir! Can’t tell you how many hours / days / years of your channel I’ve enjoyed 🥃

I have several AD that I have a relationship with. All of them sell Tudor. Travelling to one of very few boutiques in Germany to buy this piece is not really an option.

Her is where our tastes divide. Yes I like Zenith but Tudor does not have my heart.

[@ID-Guy]

I’d be taking the Zenith 8/7 days a week given the choice too 😉🥃

[@georgehofgren6123]

I think I'd choose it on an Oyster bracelet...

[@jamesblonde2271]

A cynic might suggest a blue release is appropriate now they've run out of mugs to buy the pink one...😂
