Forget the watch. This video is excellent. The setting. The pacing. The script. The chatting critique and information. Production value. Very very good. Love it!

[@johnayres2303]

Yes but Tudor, such a boring overexposed brand.

[@FoxV16]

@@johnayres2303 I do like Tudor but I am starting to agree with you. They are taking on a more Rolex “innovation” vibe. “New colour-world ends”. I can’t knock them as a whole but I do very much see your point. I think it’s because for many they are still obtainable so people are happy to talk about them. But if they are going to. It should be in this style.

[@MQTherapy]

Love what you’re doing with the channel. You’ve helped me so much with my watch journey. Thank you!

[@bobbywatchaddict523]

I will put my two cents in here. I think this watch pulls at our watch nerd-heart strings so strongly, because most of us would love to have had a Rolex Submariner No-Date from back in-the-days, when the Sub was a tool watch, had no date complication, had an aluminum bezel, and was affordable. In addition, this current Tudor has all the modern updates that we all wish one of those old Rolex Subs had come with. And lastly, there it is. It’s right in front of us. We can actually have a New, Old-Stock Rolex Sub for a “reasonable” price, brand new. We can maybe finally be the One Watch Guy we all envision those cool guys in the 60s and 70s to have been. I would love to have one of these. And Adrian, you are right that the “boring” black versions of many watches are the most popular. Why? Because they fit in anywhere and everywhere.

[@meff22]

yes, i agree with that 😉

[@panorama4526]

I don‘t want a Rolex Submariner No-Date. I want a date on all my watches, like the BB Steel. Not sure Tudor will release a date version of the new BB.

[@maitrehg]

Amen 🙏

[@maitrehg]

​@@panorama4526No date is pure perfection.

[@johnlubbad6205]

Meh. Do something new. Never was a fan of the BB. I agree with the modern movements/no date comment though. They’ve rode this horse beyond the ground. Black Bay…

[@GunvaldOttesen]

Holy hell, this video is gorgeous!!! This is Adrian showing us his true artistic skill as a videographer and storyteller, not stealing focus from the watch but building the perfect backdrop for what he is communicating about the watch itself! More content like this Adrian, you rock!!

[@ralphdale3919]

Never comment on videos, but loved this format. Being sat on a train in London watching this, it felt like a mate was talking watches with me. Keep it up A

[@jakefromstatefarm4508]

This video is quality content! Love the second camera person filming you film the watch, the leica taking pictures then immediately showing the pictures, the hand in the water, the measuring and strap change, the exploring while talking. Keep it coming!

[@waxy954]

Essentially it is a Rolex no date Sub, for half the price and available today to purchase. I actually prefer the bezel on the Tudor to the ceramic bezel of the modern Sub

[@bobhob35]

I completely agree with you. However I still believe a vintage or sub pre super case and ceramic bezel would be hard to beat. Also 1513 to 14060m prices are starting to fall and become a viable vintage alternative below the current model rrp.

[@ZachGrabill]

See, so do I. Love this as an every day

[@waxy954]

@@bobhob35 true. Although this is still half the price of a 14060M …so is easier to get pass the boss 🤣

Rock-solid review. Love the on-location videography and the absolutely gorgeous scenery! Big Tudor fan here with a medium-size collection. I have the original 2012 BB41 Burgundy among others. The new 2024 BB41 Monochrome watch is uber-cool. Hope to see one 'in person' in a June visit to my AD.

Now we’re talking! This is Bark & Jack. Excellent photography/videography. Great review. And, the obligatory plug for the straps. Love it. My only quibble is that I don’t think you mentioned price which I think is relevant b/c you are getting a ton of watch of the money.

[@ZachFrank714]

I honestly love this watch... Enough to where i picked it up on the 5 link bracelet. Its wonderfully boring and fits everywhere, and i think thats what really makes it great.

[@kabuverdiano]

I think the star of the video...is the video itself! Makes want to go to Scotland with my BB Pro :) More of these please!

[@janhansen67]

Absolutely beautiful video,.. setup, surroundings etc… works so well 😁 and agree with you on the “bestsellers are often boring”, or we could call them neutral, that’s also what makes them work, and people don’t grow tired of the look over the years. I’ve got a black seamaster, and sometimes I would love that it didn’t have the “ red parts”… because monochrome is just a heck of a lot easier to pair with different straps and outfits. Like this Black Bay, even though I would like it even more with 20mm lugs, just got a lot more of those.

[@ryanafloyd]

This video is gorgeous! Excellent work!

I got this watch last Friday. It’s amazing.

[@jason_jay3868]

Really enjoyed the video, fun, format

[@ay8987]

I tried this one today on the 5 link jubilee style bracelet. What a watch, it’s so good. Fit’s beautifully on 6.75 inch wrist without looking too big. The dial is so good, a slightly sunburst dial, with outstanding legibility because of the big hands and perfectly proportioned hour hands. I was blown away. It’s the modern vintage looking Tudor no-date sub you want. Also a strap monster

[@Czeron01]

Great production quality. Would love a video on your overall photography setup, cameras, techniques etc…

[@Paperback540]

Thank you for asking Tudor about whether METAS movements have any physical changes! Super interesting.

[@jamestrice6853]

If I've got this right you could assume that most of the in-house movements are of a similar quality to a METAS movement?

[@brett233]

@@jamestrice6853most likely very similar with minor tweaks and more extensive testing.

[@RoryMacdonald-pfff]

Tasty video that one - well done gents. Am sure we were all on edge of our seat when the straps came out, wondering if the Explorer 2 was going to make a brief cameo :-)

[@PaulTayLOL]

Didn’t realise it’s the exactly the same movement as the previous version of the BB, and it’s just been METAS tested - thanks for that, great detail 👍🏻

[@owenjones9032]

That's why I got mine on the five link bracelet, it's very nice. The rubber is also much better in person, though not as good as the Oysterflex.

[@larssonnsx]

I seen this watch in the flesh and it surprisingly impressed me. I would avoid the riveted bracelet and buy the jubilee. What I realized is that all my favorite Tudor watches do not have faux patina. This new watch genuinely makes a Submariner look very expensive.

[@brysoga]

I think the watch looks better on the jubilee. I actually don't mind this watch but I do think this as close to classic Tudor as you can get. But the negative of that is that it's far closer to being a cheaper submariner than anything that's gone before it.

[@markbannister8031]

The production of this video is off the scale good. Fair play. 👏

[@sinjinadams2862]

I love it when you go on location like this to film your videos. I hate to say it but I think this will be a huge seller for those people that can't afford a Submariner or those that just want that vintage look.

[@roelstolk3915]

Love this format of video, thanks!

[@ericmoss8344]

Great job on this video!! If I didn't already have a No-Date sub this one would be on my must-have list. I'll wait until they offer this one w/a blue dial reminiscent of the old Blue Snowflake. :)

[@matt1081]

Great content Adrian, love the style of this video. Super informative, great visuals (as ever) and about the perfect running length too. Aside from the B&J nato, what do you think is the best strap / bracelet for this watch?

[@ashleyg6479]

Love the format ..and the backdrop of Loch Lomond …filming content ..better than the watch !

[@bencelissak7458]

Well done, Adrian! The earlier videos felt like a trial/error kind of approach, I was missing your old self from them (charm, maybe?). All that's gone. I felt this video was a genuine continuation of your earlier self/work, I felt this is the Adrian we know. I guess your team is getting the hang of your character, because this was spot on. More of such videos please! PS: the watch is great, boring is good!

[@watchwarrior8597]

Adrian, you have hit a 10 out of 10 on the video production and on the new Blackbay 41mm monochrome. First of all this video is outstanding, you and Oisin are by far the best two on KZbin for a cinematic experience and really hitting the depth of field in your videography. I agree this is the best overall improvement Tudor has made on the 41mm and the T fit clasp is really well designed . The only encore from this video is maybe doing a side by side comparison of the Rolex 6542 GMT Master to the new Black Bay 58 GMT . This is an obvious homage to the 6542 with the small touches with gold and the slightly off red and black aluminum bezel that is oh so close to the old bake light dark blue and red bezel . That would be an amazing video to do a side by side comparison . Keep up the amazing work and honestly you are so much more jn your environment going solo .

[@standardh_]

Great edit on this one. Really enjoyed it. Couldn’t agree more on all the statements as well

[@mb-watches]

Big Pros, did love the video, its great to see how you keep going with your content. The watch? Well, as you said, as good as the one out of last year 😂 but still my most favourite release on W&W. This is how - in my opinion - the 124060 should have looked like.

[@adeanh1]

I was watching this thinking that it's simultaneously super engaging content as well as perfect background watching. I don't think I've ever thought to myself, "I"m going to re-watch a KZbin video." Until today.
