I've had my BB58 for a year..its my "go to" watch for all occasions..great value, subtle & discreet 👍🇬🇧

I went to a watch shop today to see BB58 blue and black in person, and I gotta say the blue one was absolutely stunning. Initially, I was leaning towards the black over the blue one, but I changed my mind once I saw the blue one on my wrist in person. The black one was still great too though.

Walked past the Tudor AD the other day in my city and wow the blue one looks so much better in person. I was initially think bb54 but that blue bb58... I can't stop thinking about it.

Teddy, your recent video quality is still exploding!! Your shots and HUD-like infos you display around the watches you present are SO sharp! Really awesome presentation! I don't know any watch channel at the moment that is able to present a watch in such a professional way. Keep it up! All the best from Germany

Nice review on the Black Bay Blues. Really, you nailed this, crisp, clear, articulation. The best review I’ve seen yet. Keep up the great work.

I’m happy you recommend the Orient Kano Teddy, it haven’t got the love like the Kamatsu...... I truly love my burgundy one!👍🏻🤩 Great video, Teddy! 👏🏻👏🏻😃

Your macro shots are unbelievable. So awesome.

I very recently bought the Black Bay 58 Navy Blue to compliment a range of predominantly black-dialled watches in my collection that include the classic Rolex Submariner Date 16610 that I've cherished for 19 yrs. The Tudor is a super, very well-made luxury timepiece and I appreciate its rather understated blue dial and aluminium bezel compared to the 'bling-blue' ceramic of my Omega Seamaster 300. Like-for-like think of the Blue 58 as a more modern take on its original black and gilt sibling. The blue really pops in daylight or in well-lit rooms and a pleasure to wear. Although not quite up there with the Rolex in the absolute quality stakes - but why should it when it's barely 35% of a Sub's retail price - go to an AD and try one on. An in-house COSC certified movement, 70 hrs power reserve.... you won't be disappointed.

A vintage fitting watch with modern styling is exactly what people with smaller wrists are looking for now. To me a perfect sports watch.

I love the black one and will probably pick up the blue one too. This has now become tied for my second favorite diver with my 14060 (Tudor is getting much more wear time)The only thing that would beat them is the 5512/3 (which is on my maybe sometime in the future list). Tudor hit an absolute home run with this watch in both colors

I've owned the M79030B for a couple months. I love the watch though I've found I rarely wear it. In my experience it feels much larger than the numbers would suggest. It looks fantastic and is of extremely high quality but each morning I pull a smaller watch from the winder and this beautiful piece sits idle and I just can't pinpoint why. Still it's a wonderful watch that's well worth the money. The blue is the main reason I bought this particular piece.

If they had the pelagos adjustable clasp on all their watches, they would be perfect.

Your lighting is aways great but the lighting on this video was exceptional! I was saving for a BB58 but Seiko released the 62mas reissue and it stole my heart.

Just picked this watch up last week The ad called me and said she just got one in. The watch is stunning. The blue is perfect. I also have the bb gmt. It’s a nice addition to my collection

Love the design. Another great video Teddy!

Hello Teddy your chanel inspired me to start my watch collection and now I'm a proud owner of a new Omega moon watch😀!

The video production is off the chart! Well done and great commentary.

I bought one. I love it. I had a maxi case no date Sub. I prefer this to that. It is a fun watch. Maybe it doesn't have the gravitas of your vintage Tudor Sub, but it has vintage design cues and modern durability. Of course, I have owned other Rolex and Tudor steel sports watches and have learned the case dimensions that work best for me. We all get to our ideal size/color/brand watch on a different path. That said, I do understand why people have been critical of the new Blue. But before anyone writes it off completely, it is worth a trip to a dealer to see it in person. The color is charming. --Michael

Nice pick up! It is a great watch now and it will definitely hold its value and become a classic down the line. wear it in good health!

Great review Teddy, as always

For me the watch is just right in size. The first good mechanic watch I bought 16 years ago was the Explorer II - and now around 10 watches later I still use my Explorer II very much because of the size and the fact that the watch is so universal - which I think the 58 is as well. Plus I love wearing blue jeans and a shirt or t-shirt so the blue version would match the style. And let’s not forget the price/value here which is just amazing.

Bryan Davis Yes - been wearing it the last week. The quality of the watch is what I expected - good value for money but I have to say that finish on Rolex watches are on a higher level which is also the way it should be. I knew that I would love the size of the watch because it’s like my Explorer II. I got mine on the steel bracelet but I also ordered the fabric strap which I think will be great for summer wear. I love the fact that the watch fits so well with different straps so one can change the styling. I didn’t buy the watch to resale it but the fact that it will properly keep its value is of course not bad. The watch is very universal but I would not use it with a suit as a dress watch.....but everything els will be just fine.

Loved your video 😍! Very detailed, not to long. And well done 👍🏽 for the part you give the dimensions of the watch . Hope you get more and more watch to review .

Really enjoy tour content Teddy. While the BB 58 is super popular, and this color way is attractive, I’m still partial to my BB Heritage 79230 with maroon, black and gilt. It’s a beautiful combination and despite standing a tad tall, wears great on my 7” wrist. Keep up the great work.

This watch is about a close to perfection as one can get. The 39mm is perfection and the shade of blue so nice!

I recently purchased the Tudor BB Steel. Love it!!

Pure quality from your content buddy, keep it up, i’m thinking about taking it as a first watch! I love what tudor did with this one, it is hyped but it is great, quality watch.

I was looking out for this watch and by chance walked into a local dealer today. With the affordable Oysters (39mm being discontinued or with a waiting list of lighyears) not attainable, I asked for the 58 and the gentlement came back with this beauty. I was very surprised by the leather strap with its softtouch upper and what I though was either rubber or thin flexi leather piece on the bottom of the strap which makes this a perfect summer watch to wear. The 41mm are just too chunky and the 58 appears all so light with non steal bracelet. It was big on my list so looking forward to rocking it and hope to pass it on to my son once he is older. Love the blue/blue combo and the specs are pretty impressive.

I never liked the faux patina and gilt of the original BB58 but loved its size and wearability. Picked up the blue when offered and very happy with my purchase. Only gripe is lack of an adjustable bracelet

Looking to get one this Christmas. Great video teddy. Love your channel ❤️

Like this level of production and presentation. Vwey good review. Thumbs up.

Great Video! Had a 16610 with a 114270, sol them both and got OG58. Super happy with it only now I want to add a 16570 polar to complement it. The blue is gorgeous as well but I prefer the more classic black and gold, something about it is more special to me than the monochromatic watches on the market. Having said that, I am tempted to pick up a blue one as well.

Tudor's sizing is the reason I have been a fan and have two 58's in my collection. I have proportionately small wrists compared to my body and the Tudor's compliment that well. Although it could be some optical illusion of mine LOL

This is my first Tudor watch. I am in love with it. I have to say I prefer a date (no cyclops) on my watches. That’s my only issue. I also have the uncle seiko half link to get the fit right. It’s so Nice

It’s a good watch because the black bay 58 is a good watch. It’s just not suddenly better because it’s blue lol.

I just picked up the blue face. Absolutely fantastic.

Great review and thanks for sharing it. I may be simple in my wants but this would be a grail watch for me.

Bought the 39 BB blue last week for my son's 34th birthday later this month. He's mentioned a preference for blue dials several times. I looked at the 41 and found it to be a bit overwhelming myself. He can always trade up for it or the black if he so chooses, but I believe he'll be very happy with this one. Enjoyed your vid, thanks.

For example, the Tag Heuer Aquaracer 200 would literally be an amazing competitor in the $2000-$3000 price bracket of dive watches, but its 38 hr power reserve and middle-of-the-road movement is a tough ask at its price point. I feel like if a company is charging you above $2500 for a watch, it needs to either be COSC, have an extended power reserve, or both. Otherwise the value for money proposition suffers a lot imo.

It's the double denim version. Which is good, and great easy wearing watch. I had a Black Bay black version and is was great apart from the height to width issue that was just all wrong.

To me, this watch is absolutely stunning.

great video Theodore.

Great job on this video Teddy, u offered a lot of different opinions and thoughts compared to others. So keep it up 👍

Nice watch, great review.

Just picked up this on a blue nato strap. First AD experience, so stoked. Loved the navy Tudor submariner but couldn't justify the chrono24 resale prices.

Great review

I went my AD because I wanted to see the 54 and ended up getting the 58 Blue. I wasn’t sure what the shade I’d blue would like like in person but am glad it wasn’t the same as the Smurf. I like the snowflake hands but would like to see Tudor incorporate square and rectangular markers like they did on the Pelagos. Maybe Tudor is using style language to differentiate each model. I wear it on an Erika’s Original - a Marine Nationale strap almost seems requisite.

I prefer the original black dial and rose gold. I feel it's a little more flexible in terms of the types of strap options.

I picked up mine last week and only thing I don’t like the micro-Adjustment on clasp is not as easy on models like Sub/GMT Rolex, other than that I love the watch from size and colour point I think you should get one and keep your Tudor Sub too 👍

Don’t sell the sub! Think less of it like overlap and more like the old and the new. They belong together in the collection. Great work!

It’s a beauty it’s it Teddy! It’s still the watch that is my grail! Think the gilt dial is still better!

Amazing watch elegant in looks and great price , it’s a watch everybody should purchase in there collection 10/10.

Gonna admit that the blue dial has that casual look unlike the black dial/gold tone which can suit a formal wear.. But that shade of blue is great. Again nice vid brother and keep it up ☺️

Nice one teddy! I honestly have the same feeling that Courtney had 😂 I love everything about the watch except the hour hand that has a square ... just looks too big for me lol ... but had it’s own uniqueness ! Great video ted!

The Pelagos is a better watch. I looked at both and bought the Pelagos. I have a fairly large wrist, so the size isn’t an issue. It didn’t hurt I was able to get a 25% discount on the Pelagos and the BB58 was at retail.

Tudor is such an excellent watch, wish they could go back to the oyster band and clasp, like their older vintage Subs Great Watch!!!

I called my AD today to inquiry about purchasing this model and I was politely informed that there is a waiting list for it and they don't know when they were going to get any. I thought to myself I've heard this story before!

Fantastic watch for the price.

Probably my next timepiece. Just acquired the Tudor Chrono Reverse Panda which I love. Looking for something a little smaller for my 16.5 wrist and I think this nails it.

Love the review, owned my baby smurf since 1 July and wears so well, is colour wise to Tudor what hulk is to Rolex

Love the new BB 58 blue . It’s a winner

The Tudor Submariner is very cool! I own a 58 and it’s an excellent watch. Enjoyed the video!

I’m not a fan of anything gilt so the new color makes the BB58 basically the perfect diver at this price range for me.

Seiko 5 SNKP21J1 is quite cool, I just found it... it is basically special for the dial which is Arabic/East Hindi numerals and Arabic day window... chrono time

Just bought this watch after debating it for over a year. Used to worry it's too small or the blue is too muted. But having bought it I'm loving it more and more each day, the size is perfect on my wrist, and the blue really is deep and pop in natural light. There other thing to note is the slightly lighter silver steel colour compared to the original BB58. Really suits the watch, for the money I can't find a better driver out there

Hey Teddy, I have been watching your videos for sometime by now, and I like your videos. However, I never saw a review on VORTIC or LIV watches. It would be nice to see a video covering these two.

Just picked one up in Seoul. Micro adjustment is a bit of a letdown (learn from IWC..), but the fit on my smallish wrist is superior to the current Submariner thanks to the 39mm diameter and absence of the bulge on the back. Well done Tudor.

What I'd REALLY like is the 2020 release Glashutte Original 39.5 SeaQ blue-dialled version. But sadly that's out of my reach financially. So I'm considering this BB58 blue as an affordable alternative.

Great review as always. I keep going back and forth on this watch and the Breitling Super Ocean Heritage B20 in Blue, or the new Blue and 18K Red Gold model (If I went Breitling, I would pick up pre-owned to come in closer to a Tudor price).
