Tudor BB54 1 Year Later... Long Term Review

[@daviddobbs295]

Black Bay 54 is not my only watch but it is my favorite watch. perfect proportions for my itty bitty wrist and the look I drooled over as a kid. Solid and well built, been wearing it everyday for over a year

[@Alex4all]

It’s a fantastic watch. Wear it in good health and enjoy it as much as you can.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

I completely relate to this!

[@patrik3450]

Bb41 is better :)

[@michaelsinanan88]

Same. Just got mine yesterday 🤓

[@melwson]

Thanks for this nice and honest video, Britt! Got mine three weeks ago after waiting for it for 2 months. My first luxury watch. Watched so many videos about it but when seen in real life it was just stunning. Quality, simplicity and that timless character. This will stay forever.

[@AaronRheins.]

Bought one a few days ago, my only gripes are: 1. I wish the bracelet tapered a little more aggressively and 2. I'm not a fan of the fake rivets on the bracelet, why not just have real ones, or none at all! But either way, I'm loving it!

[@theodoreestienne5492]

I so much agree about those bracelets that arent tapered enough and too wide at the clasp

[@labradoolepapa]

I was one of those Rolex owners (have 5 vintage) that used to poo poo Tudor....then I tried on the BB54. Went home with it, it is now my most worn watch. Just love it. The clasp is a real game changer. You don't have to take it off your wrist to adjust it. There is no going back once you have a clasp like this. My BB54 is running within 1 second per day, every day.

This watch hits that sweet spot and it has become my everyday go to. I highly recomend! It was a wonderful gift and something that I will cherish for a lifetime.

[@DylanLai-di6ts]

I’ve been wearing the BB54 daily for 2 months now, and it’s incredibly comfortable and stylish. Its size and slimness are unmatched by any other sport models out there. I’ve noticed some women wearing a Rolex Submariner, but it looks oversized and awkward in comparison. I would definitely buy 1 if Tudor launch a Pepsi or Batman bezel.

[@salty5402]

My wife and kids got me the BB54 for Xmas and it rivals my Omega AT as my favorite watch. It wears perfectly and could easily be my only watch. Absolutely love how it wears and every aspect of its design. Another great watch for more modest wrists is the Longines Spirit 37mm - it and my BB54 make me think they might be the perfect two watch collection.

[@Reemiiix]

I was on a waitlist for this watch since september 2023. Got a call from Tudor Geneva last month and went to the shop to pick it up. I tried it on and instantly felt in love. In fact I love it so much that I sold almost all my watches and bought another BB54

[@jmr7river401]

Wow this is exactly what happened to me. I have been to the Tudor boutique in Miami this past year for at least 10 times. I was there last month and got a glance of this BB54. What can I say, I fell in love with the watch and the whole transaction took less than 20 minutes. I have been wearing it every day… put on my navy suit and instead of wearing my King Seiko I ended up putting on my Tudor. Because of the size and the dimensions it goes with everything .

[@sidney341]

[@arindamdas2274]

I just got it a few days back and I love it! I went to inquire (a month back) for the 41 mm monochrome which was not available when I was suggested the BB54 by the sales executive. I didn't quite like it in the first place but it grew over me in a couple of weeks. Finally, I pulled the trigger last week!

[@richardhawkins1368]

I agree. I have had Tudor QC problems. My black bay 36 blue had dust under the sapphire from the factory

[@patrickhartmann1540]

⁠What you’ve said is correct. I’ll add that the 54 is an homage to the Tudor diver from 54 which was a more affordable copy of the Rolex, even including some shared parts. For me, I love the vintage aesthetic, history and the legitimate familial tie.

[@craigwoolbert2443]

I just went on a Lakehouse vacation and I took the 54 and a beater. The beater never got any wrist time the 54 is simply fantastic.

Beautiful watch. I love the bracelet. My impulse was BB 58 925. I loved the case and taupe. So much ❤❤ i also got the BB 36 anthracite. I love the warn tones in this face. On bracelet or ostrich leg sand strap. ❤

[@Bornia1982]

I have the Blue BB58, and am still on the fence about it. Some days I feel that Tudor can do no wrong, delivering so much value, with the aesthetics of a vintage Rolex and an easy size. Other days I feel bored by the vintage details, the domed glass, the aluminium bezel and small size. I do not get the elevated feeling of wearing my modern Rolexes.

[@BrittPearceWatches]

YOU KNOW, I completely relate to this and I get it!

[@philipB31]

I spotted your post yesterday, was it, regarding feeling stale on ‘the tube’ and this video just shows how you are not. Sympathise over the (serious) bike injury and glad you have recovered well. I am v. lucky to own a Seamaster chronograph, Sea-Dweller 2-tone and a blue Sky-Dweller with jubilee… I wholly agree with your comments over easy micro-adjustments and wish the Sky had something like that, but as a divist I found the bezel on the Omega surprisingly difficult to operate with wet fingers, the Rolex was absolutely opposite… my impression of the Tudor, however gorgeous it is, that the bezel isn’t as practical in sport use as it could be… you’re the professional.

[@handlehbt]

Been wearing this daily since the day I bought it 19months ago. I love it ! I love watches and keep a tab on various launches, but have never had the urge to buy any other watch. I watch their videos and will continue to watch them but am done with them. I think I have found my perfect watch and will wear it daily till it breaks down.

[@thefwenkmeister972]

I got the bb54 and i put the uncle seiko jubilee on it with the oem clasp, it looks amazing next to my date just and it's the perfect mix between classy and casual. Under the radar but once you notice it you can't keep your eyes off it

[@jamesblonde2271]

I was very "meh" about this until I tried it on, as a vintage guy it really spoke to me.

[@Robert-vw3od]

Tudor is becoming the default enthusiast Choice, there is not an awful lot going on. I tried it on and I thought it was a little bit small for me. The problem is a lot of other watches are a little bit big in terms of the lug lenth.

[@napilut]

The first BB54 came with that displacement with the pip. I had to pass. The dealer from the AD told me I was being picky, it was “Normal”… well, not for me paying for a luxury item. I ended buying it from another place

[@jamesblonde2271]

@@napilut thats a bit shocking...

[@ssjtrunks]

i disagree with your point at 9:09 about introducing more color variants to the bb54, i like the simplicity and lack of options as it makes it super iconic in my eyes and really puts it in its own category within a class of its own. also the faux rivets are absolutely a staple at this point, i think it’s one of those things that puts tudor in its own lane and separates it from the rest. it just wouldn’t feel the same without them at this point. other than that, great video! solid points regarding everything else!

[@drkesrf]

I own this watch. The rivets are a plus, IMO. It makes the bracelet more masculine. In addition, its unique to tudor and identifiable.

[@BennyLlama]

I have the Black Bay 58 Blue, and I absolutely love it. Behind my Black Bay Pro, it's my most worn watch. I even got a Tudor Ranger bracelet and had it refinished so it matches the BB58, and now it's perfect.

[@chriscon8463]

I’ve considered getting a Ranger bracelet for mine; I have it on a Forstner “O” right now. I just can’t get a comfortable fit with the Tudor bracelet, even with a “Uncle Strap’s” half-link.

@chriscon8463 I say go for it if you still can't get a good fit. The worst part is the $800 price tag

Yes. The BB54 is a lot more versatile than the cermit. Hopefully you were able to get the cermit at retail at your AD

[@vab120]

I prefer the 58, which is a full spec homage to all the vintage codes in my opinion. However, I can see the desirability in a smaller, cleaner design. I did get the new Explorer in 36mm for the same reason, sometimes less is more. Tudor is releasing so many amazing watches, you can’t go wrong with any of their creations.

[@alexsystems2001]

If it didn’t have the fake rivets and it had a date… I’d consider it. I’m part of the group that won’t buy a watch without a date. The watch is just a mechanism to change the date for me. When I go to the bank and fill out paperwork, I don’t need the time, when I fill out logs at work, ehhh mostly I don’t need the time, it usually the date that is the most important to me.

[@catalins8586]

I haven't even noticed it doesn't have a date... wtf. I really wanted this, but I also noticed some of the watches don't have that pip at 12 centered which is a total dealbreaker for me.

[@andyburton9201]

The size doesn’t put me off as the owner of a Rolex OP 34mm as well as 40mm+ watches. It’s nice but I’d rather keep my 58 over this. I like the seconds hand but that’s about it. The silver on the bezel does not go with the gilt of the markers and hands for me. Much prefer the red triangle as well. Just my opinion.

[@patrickhartmann1540]

I’m approaching a year with the 54 and with your encouragement, kept my 58. 58 wears slight better for my 6.5inch wrist. Hard to say why, exactly, since both are visually similar on wrist. That said, both are excellent, historic and NOT trying to be Submariners.

[@gavinwhite9743]

Agreed, they are not trying to be modern submariners. But the clue is in the name. 1954 inspired submariner, for design and proportions. They are vintage submariner homages, with snowflake hands(making it a homage) and a gilt finish to make it look aged. 54 black bay sounds nicer than Rolex submariner 1954 Tudor homage. It’s a lovely watch, based upon an icon of design. Rolex doesn’t look backwards with its designs, it has Tudor to do that for it. If Rolex launched a heritage range, it would leave Tudor with no designs at all.

[@matsigh]

Yeah Tudor QC has been awful for me. I bought a BB54 2 weeks ago. The first one had a problem with the movement so the AD took it back and gave me a new one (very nice of them) but the second one then had a physical manufacturing issue with the crown (glue all over the threads and inside it). I’m now left waiting for them to get another BB54 in but when it does I’m going to take a look at the 36 or maybe a different brand as well.

[@johnheng3277]

I wanted to buy BB54 few months ago but decided to wait and see what new watches will be released in this year watch and wonder. After seeing all the new watches, the BB54 is still the winner to me and I am set to buy it soon. I already have the BB58 blue and BB41 blue bezel for more than 2 years. I have large wrist and now I have a taste for vintage looking dive watch.

[@mehtabbhogal397]

I got my wife one after seeing your review. It really is awesome. I sold a 5513 sub as well and it scratches the vintage itch without the stress. The COSC accuracy is very nice too.

[@THX-C]

The only thing Tudor needs to do is make half links. Thank goodness for Uncle Seiko for stepping into the void and making them. This watch is awesome - I don’t mind the faux rivets.

[@CB-DW]

Uncle (Seiko) Straps sells an oyster style (with screw links) for the 54. I bought one last year and fitted the T-Fit. The 54 now looks awesome and the bracelet quality is superb!

[@theshadow1812]

And Uncle Seiko is the only company I know that sells a short tropic strap at 65mm x 115mm - good for those with 6.5 inche wrist or smaller.

[@bradg.5253]

I have two submariners (Hulk and Starbucks). I was very fortunate to purchase both at retail. The past few years, Tudor has been knocking it out of the park. Dollar for dollar I am giving the nod to Tudor. The bezel lines up better on my Tudor watches than my two Rolex subs. I love my Black Bay watches: black ceramic, Herrods edition, and GMT white dial. I believe Rolex is wanting to shift to the luxury market and they are wanting Tudor to take their place as a very reliable tool watch.

[@burlymugg]

I own a couple Rolex watches, Omega, etc. This was the first watch I purchased new from a boutique and it has gotten 90% of my wrist time since buying. I get freaked out each time I look down and the watch is spot on with my iPhone. The thing I love most about this watch is the t-fit clasp spoiled me so bad that I cannot comfortably own a daily wear watch without a similar feature. This watch literally saved me 30k from buying the Day-Date I had my eye on because I just could not do it without the adjustment. best 4k I ever spent!

[@visiblemode]

Quality micro-adjusts do spoil you. For sure. Of my watches my best micro-adjusts are actually in my Christopher wards. They have a superior design to most watches even the highest of the high end. Tudor does it really well, too.

[@MB_OutdoorsMT]

The BB54 is exactly what I had in mind. Absolutely love mine.

[@b_altmann]

The BB54 is very heavily vintage inspired, so the rivet style is appropriate for it - like the gilt accents. For a modern look they have the Pelagos 39 or the new BB41.

[@RabbitWatchShop]

For me, the faux rivets for the first time just works on the BB54. Don’t like to see them on the other models… but again, it just works on the 54. I suppose because it’s more accurate to the watch it’s inspired by. The 58 and 41 are loosely accurate to the 1958 Tudor Sub.

[@b_altmann]

@@RabbitWatchShop the BB 58 also has a vintage look, so the rivets are very fitting. The blue version looks more modern.

[@paulkukula6541]

[@LinusWatches]

I have a Tudor royale 41 silver with Diamond dial. Tudor is awsome

[@PaulTayLOL]

BB58 has too much gilt - less gilt on the bezel is better imo. The combo of white in the bezel with the gilt on the dial for the 54 works super well 👌🏻

[@roygaya]

I have learned to appreciate more the Oyster case design after acquiring the BB54 on release. I already own a Sub 41, DJ36, and OP36, but I never put too much attention on the case. I love how the BB54 sits elegant and slim on the wrist ❤ A true nod to the Subs of the past

[@Delkor444]

I agree with you. I bought my 58 because I wanted a 58. A submariner doesn’t appeal to me in their modern references.

[@theshadow1812]

Great Review im still on the fence on this one trying to decide between BB54, Vulcain Nautique 38mm, Aquastar Model 60 37mm and finally the Benrus Ultra-Deep 36.5mm. So 2 watches with date , 2 without date! A smaller wristed watch wearer never had this problem in the past of having a lot of smaller diver/skin divers to pick from!

[@morphyon]

As a swimmer, I need this feature (the clicky bezel). Also what seems to be missed often: Despite the 37mm it has 20mm lug width. It works with the proportions and it makes it a strap monster. All the 20 mm natos I already have, fit.

[@john-paulsilke893]

This particular watch is special to you. Therefore you can never give anything near a fair review. I’m genuinely glad you have such a special watch, many people don’t. Mine is a black face Seiko 5 and I love it more than my steel/gold Daytona or my Snowflake GS. To me those are far more beautiful watches but the Seiko is a Father’s Day gift that 4 of my 6 kids went in together and bought for me. You Tudor is an awakening to live and how fleeting and precious it is so similar in its own way. That being said, 5 micro adjustments on the fly is almost worth it alone! Women shrink and grow sometimes hourly, and I myself have this issue when I’m working, (construction). I can go up a whole link size at the end of the day and on a strap it’s a new hole. Plus, let’s be honest, it’s got a “sexy” vintage size and look, but it’s just a bit larger and more legible and comes from a solid brand!

Also the 6:00 marker was off center and I have seen A LOT of examples with the same issue. It bothered me so much that I sold the watch which was heart breaking because had it not been for those small issues, I would have considered that the perfect daily watch.

[@novainvicta]

I bought this watch in January 2024 after watching zillions of videos on KZbin (including yours). I already own watches from Rolex, Tag Heuer, Grand Seiko, Citizen and horror of horrors Apple. It's become my daily wear (relegated the Apple Watches to a bedside draw). I agree the colour means you can wear it with anything, the simplicity means it doesn't stick out,. I have skinny wrists for a man so this doesn't look like Goliath watch like some of the watches that are 41mm or larger. I have no issues with the faux rivets and Ive not had any issues with the Lum pips or triangle and Im a precision engineer by training and took a magnifying glass with me to the dedicated Tudor store at Westfield, Sheppards Bush just to make sure during my purchase. I have to say the service at the Tudor store at Westfield was equal to that received at Rolex (both owned by Watches of Switzerland) and that makes a difference to how you feel about a brand. For instance spend £ 4K on a Canon camera body as Ive done and the buying experience is rubbish by comparison. Tudor nailed it with this watch, nothing to change & nothing to alter.

I had a B54 and did like it but sole to make room for another watch. I seem to be the only one who has issues with the T-Fit. I had to add an aftermarket 1/2 link to this as well as the BB Pro when I had one. Even with the adjustment, just couldn't get the right fit.

smaller diameter for me is point of strength, it gives the watch the timeless vintage look regardless of the wrest size .

Just picked up a Tudor Ranger 39mm on the bracelet. Super excited to get it in and see what this brand is all about!

Have my BB54 since Christmas and I love the vintage look.

I’m surprised they didn’t do any variations of the BB54 this year. I agree, the proportions of the watch are great! If they had a Pepsi version, I know my wife would want one. I’d wear it too! Last year I got the blue BB58 on the blue leather strap. If they had had a blue BB54, I may have gone for that instead.

Owning a Sub (1680) and a SD (116600), I have to say, that I love my 54! If you but it, because you want it and like the look and dimensions, it‘s a watch you will love. If you but it, because you want a Sub, you will be disappointed.

Great video! If you ever want to experience the 58 with T-Fit, just swap the 54s bracelet onto it, only catch is you have to use the 58s endlinks. Should work!

I am maturing with my scratched up damaged messed up but working Rolex! Sounds weird but if you heard of old men who wear their Rolex everyday before they died I know why! It’s one of those things.

This was the watch that got me interested in Tudor. I prefer it to a modern sub regardless of the price. The only thing that I don't like is the lume is not great. Only lasts 30 to 45 mins and isn't very bright. The winding is also so so but not a deal breaker. Maybe because my watch was early display model.

Gringa Saturday 🎉 I totally love the 54, classic size, classic aesthetics, overall just a classy watch. Hopefully Tudor will make it in more colors.

Hey, detailed and enjoyable video as always. Are you recovered from the surgery completely?

[@jspeakman53]

Thanks Britt - just checked my lume pip on my 58 under a loupe and it’s half a hair to the right - grrr😠 but I reckon I can live with it😊
