I wholeheartedly agree.
I really appreciate all the macro shots to reveal all the flaws. Great job!
Finally an objective review on this thing that isn't just a gush-fest over a simple color change. Subscribed.
Best review by far. Most subjective stance, a great in depth exploration of the timepiece and absolutely beautiful production/photography. Keep up the excellent work!
The aluminium bezel is the reason I bought it. I like scratched & faded bezel inserts. Ghost bezel is also very appealing.
Yours must be the most perfect, enjoyable and complete watches reviews I’ve ever seen. I specially love your macro and wrist shots.
I appreciate the genuine passion that comes through in your reviews. Keep up the great work!
Looking forward to it have had it for 6 weeks ! Thanks for dropping
ln my humble opinion, this is one of the best watch review I've ever seen.
always appreciate your revealing macros esp as my vision deteriorates! 2 points: didn't initially realise the sticker on the side of the case (looked like funny polishing) and wrto bezel sound, the 60 clicks of the tudor differs to the 120 clicks of the rolex. i recently acquired the BB58 black and much prefer it to the blue as a more versatile and vintage vibe.
Excellent review, and might I say that this BB58 looks absolutely fantastic on your wrist, not too small at all.
Best reviewer, hands down 🔥
I could listen to you all day, I’ve noticed a smudge on the seconds hand of my brand new 58 but the rest is all good, I looked at my Grand Seiko under loupe and found no signs of life 👍
You go to the details and your reviews are really fair not only going on the way the brand wants to...it really helps to have a real idea about the watch specially when you order without having the opportunity to try... keep it up and Bravo.
I just watched this watch featured in Teddy's channel and thought how wonderful if would've been if Hafiz can feature this watch with his macro shots. Then this video popped up in my notification. Thank you sir!
Your channel is such a breath of fresh air. Keep up the good work. I have the 58 Blue since release and it still gets a lot of wrist time. Really complementary to my other watches like the Rolex sub (40mm)!
Hafiz, you are THE man, your content is second to none, I've subscribed and will keep watching. I picked up a blackbay 58 but in black as I don't like the blue!
Your vids have some of the best wrist shots of any reviewer... so helpful!!

I bought one after watching your review. Thank you for a great video and helping me to decide.
Yeaaaaaaaa! You got your Theme Music 🎶 back! Great video man!!
A long time viewer of your videos, and I finally end up suscribing since your reviews are top notch. Well done
There's a lot of hype around this watch, but I feel like you're one of the few to offer a fair review. Love the bezel sound comparison!
Best watch reviewer on KZread. Analytical + great shots
Looks perfect on your wrist Hafiz. definitely a keeper
Watched this before I got the watch. Now I've got it, I am still watching. The blue is so gorgeous
Really like your review so much more than all of the others out there. Great job showcasing the watch on your wrist to see how it looks in the real world. Most reviewers do crappy wrist shots. I think this watch size suits you perfectly. Very classy look.
Always compelling analysis, one of the most underrated and best watch review channel, great job Hafiz, keep up the great work!

Much appreciated!
Great and thorough review as always, the Matt dual face is lovely and surprised with poor finish on hands not good enough, I prefer the aluminium bezel as I like the change in colour over time which will be my story. Privileged to own a Tudor GMT, Tudor BBR and Rolex Hulk - having choice is the spice of life ! I also love the size as a daily for under the cuff as my other Tudor’s are better weekenders given size and my use. Keep up the great reviews !
Hi, Thank you for your good job ! Please continue your macro 🔍 to encourage manufacturers to be more careful with our watch 🙏.
Great review. Would love to see one on the omega railmaster or Globemaster.
Really enjoy your reviews, Hafiz!
Superb cinematics!!!
Outstanding review and GREAT attention to details!
Another lovely review.Superb photography.
I think the aluminium is a clear design choice and works well with the vintage vibe. I agree lack of lume on the bezel is a mistake. Great review as always
How I love your macro...
Great review and appreciate your honest views on the watch. Nothing is perfect and we are all a bit different and quirky when it comes to ‘our little hobby’. Keep producing your awesome vids. S
I‘m not a flipper so I love the if the watch will be „mine“ with fading and patina... every scratch is also cool (that doesn‘t mean I hit it on purpose to get scratches...)... I‘m super happy about the Aluminium bezel and dial decision of Tudor. A ghostly white blue will be a stunning patina and will give the watch even more character.

I have one and I think its the perfect watch for the money.
Love the editing! Keep it up
Lovely review. Thanks!
I like this review because you go into great detail when examining the finishing on the watch. The camera work is excellent. But you don't mention the accuracy of the movement. Do this and your reviews will be perfect.
Very nice review. I REALLY like that "random" wristshots at the beginning in all of your videos. That helps a lot to get an overview about the look and wrist presents. Could you do a review about the Planet Ocean 39.5mm? I would really appreciate. Best regards!
Fantastic review, the blue dial is 🚀
Excellent and in depth review Hafiz.

Thanks for the video!
Great video, best macro shots iv seen so far on this one! There was some really ugly scratches etc. But PP have them as well i guess.
Another amazing video!
Damn you! Now I have my doubts again about Aquis vs Tudor!
Great review! Thanx!!!
I just got the same watch 2 days ago! My first Tudor, and I am impressed. Not a great quality difference between it and my Rolex watches. And so far it keeps great time. Did you mention the 70 hour power reserve? I don't remember hearing that but this is a point worth mentioning or repeating...
Awesome video! The Tudor BB 58 Blue is such a better looking watch than the Rolex Submariner in every way. It just blows it out of the water! The single best value in the luxury watch world. Put it on a Vanguard blue strap for great looks and all day, every day comfort.
Another fantastic video, Hafiz. Great videography and informed content presented in a very measured approach. This is a great watch. Tried one at my Rolex AD a few weeks back and it was very comfortable. A good one-watch option and something that a buyer can get without a 3-5 year wait like that of the Sub. Agree with your assessment of the flaws, which for price and availability, I think buyers will be able to look past. Also, I never liked the artificial patina look of the dial on the black model while the blue is crisp and clean.
I’d go with this blue dial over the black dial. Somehow it gives me a sense of calm and peacefulness

My everyday watch Tudor bb58 black ❤️
I have subbed to your channel even though you're probably going to convince me to buy too many watches. Great work!
Amazing Review and superb shots! I especially like your ratio of subjective observations and objective feature overview. I don't get the criticism on the aluminium bezel though. First of all it fits into the "heritage" setting of the watch. The BB58 wouldn't make half of it's resemblance to the old models with a shiny ceramic bezel. Also on many watches like the old Omega SMP's or of course the Rolex 4-digit and 5-digit reference pieces people pay for beautifully faded bezels, leave alone gorgeous pepsi bezels that faded.
Ceramic insert on the bezel would be much better , I agree but that aluminum doesn’t look bad . Macro shots are high quality. Thank you sir ! I’m still considering the Rolex 114270 because of this review.
Great video my man! I just subscribed.
So glad I found this channel
I tried this on a few days ago. I have a 6.3" wrist and I also find the watch a touch smaller than I'd like. It is appropriate, no doubt, but it's missing a millimeter in every direction except thickness. I also find it (and please forgive me Tudor fans) a touch boring for some reason. Missing a certain luxury, or polish, or specialness somehow. It's... simply functional. For me, the 40mm Submariner still wins in feeling perfect on the wrist and brings with it that certain joy of "damn, I'm wearing something NICE."
Great review thanks very much. 🇬🇧. Ps. Love the rivets
Another great video! Please consider doing a review on JLC master control date :-)
Very nice review
Loving the content, amazingly consistent quality! It's reached a point where I like your reviews before I even watch them. That being said, I'm just not feeling this blue version of the BB58. Just too plain for what may very well be 'grail watch price' for most people.

Thanks so much for your kind comments and support. Blue Bb58 I think is nicer in real life than it shows in camera. Especially when you relate it with oyster prince blue sub, it does make it very special.

@@HafizJMehmood Good point. I'll have to keep an eye out for this in real life to see how that blue comes across. Perhaps I'm just unfairly comparing it the the BB58 Black, which I absolutely love the looks of.

Tbh if you ask me, I think black one has more Character than blue one, largely due to gilt dial and warmer tone. But this blue is nice as well, although I’ll pick black over it, if I am to choose one.
You the best❤
Aluminum bezel on this watch is the correct choice because of the vintage design and feel. A ceramic bezel would ruin the vintage aesthetic, there were no ceramic bezels in vintage past.
Nice video,cool watch,cool dude.
Excellent narration and camera skills! Sub and Like added. I wonder if we’ll see ceramic bezels soon?
A good addition color scheme for this product line, though I still prefer the black/gilt combination.

Surprising review. I had no idea there would be flaws like this on a watch of this price. Although some might say an MSRP of $3,700 is not that much, I would say I would not expect to such so many scratches and dust particles coming from such a prestigious brand. This is the first video that has me rethinking a purchase of the Navy Blue. Thank you.

Such scratches are very common on watches. Check out my other videos and you will out. I will personally not call these scratches as deal breaker anymore. Because otherwise, it will mean I almost cant buy any watch at all.
Very good job. Thank you! I like blue dial diving watches. But I will probably choose a blue dial ceramic Omega SMP for almoust same price.

I think the SMP had the potential to be the best watch at it’s category and I tried to “love” it bit alas it has too many little issues that spoil it for me. Had it been 40or 39mm , had a tapering bracelet, and the hands were a little less skeletonized ( which would have improved the legibility) It would have been my champion. Bit the BB58 with all its negatives looks and wears much better on the wrist, just wish it had a matte ceramic bezel like the pelagos.

Love your videos. Please do a Panerai 914 bro appreciate it

Great video! Which do you prefer, black or blue?
Very nice watch but would rather have a Seiko Captain Willard 😀 Great video
i got a spec of dust on my dial when buying new at the rolex/tudor boutique.
If it had a ceramic bezel, I'd buy it in a heart beat!
Hi Hafiz , I’m now considering the BB58 just would like to know is there any pulling / pinching hair with the bracelet - from your experience? Thanks a lot man 🙏🏼
Veramente bello complimenti
I feel like I'm listening to Irrfan Khan talking about Gogol. Beautifully done!
I bought a BB58 Blue today and once unwrapped from its protective plastic I was disappointed in that although it's a beautiful watch the QC was a bit lacking. The bezel alignment is off and there is a stain on the boss of the second hand that I noticed straightaway and once seen can't be unseen. Saying that my 2019 Rolex 114060 isn't much better.
I bought this watch after watching this. Simply beautiful watch, and the best pound4pound mechanical watch on the market. Great video! 👍

Great review and great watch although the poor quality like Rolex is putting me off. You really are better off spending a bit more and getting a Omega seamaster which is a considerably better watch.
i liked the sound of the tudor bezel more??? More chunky!
Your reviews are really good. What size is your wrist
Chosen 41mm black bay black dial against BB 58 black. After trying both felt that actually BB 58 wearing too small for my 7 1/2 inch wrist. And don’t like the way bracelet tapered towards clasp. Those with below 7 in wrist may be ok. Regardless of what heritage thingy states, blue dial seems too blend and boring.
Great review! Have you had a chance to try on the leather strap version? I’m highly interested in it.
