Rolex is the brother that went off to become a partner at a law firm. Tudor is the younger brother that dropped out and became a rockstar. MedLife Crisis is great! Nice shout out.

Tudor is the twin brother who lacks the marketing budget, but otherwise looks the same and is the same, for the most part.

I think they managed to get the balance of colour slightly better than some of the other Black Bay range. That’s the only thing to my eye.

I got this watch about a month ago on the nato! And honesty is my favourite watch in my collection! It’s get more time in the wrist than any of my Rolex’s! This Tudor in my opinion is going to be a future classic! It’s a beautiful no fuss time piece, fun and high quality! If you get the chance to buy it, then do not hesitate!

Hi Lewis. What has happened with the BB58 Blue after 1y? I am thinking about buying one! Current collection: Explorer I 39mm, submariner 41, and Batman GMT.

Some of the best analogies I’ve ever heard and sums up the Tudor so well. Shoving people into the pool! Genius 😂

The watch it too small

All I know is it looks frickin' cool. The blonde hair made Norma into Marilyn. Sometimes there's just one detail that can elevate an attractive, but otherwise ordinary individual or object into someone or something that captures the public's imagination. It's like lightning in a bottle. You can't really describe it fully with words.

Waited months for this review. Thanks! As always great content!

Watch of the year for me. It would look lovely in a grey also.

I have a navy BB58 coming in from your New York store and I’m super excited! Can’t wait to get it on the wrist. I’ve tried my friends and it’s everything it’s touted to be by my favorite watch channels, this one included.

Your storytelling is just world-class!

So to summarise... Buy it because it’s blue Don’t buy it because it’s blue It’s a hype because it’s blue It’s not a hype because it’s blue

What a great review, been thinking about buying this watch for quite a while now this just sealed it.

long power reserve, accurate in house movement (-2 +4 sec /day if I remember correctly), elegant dial/index design, dome crystal, antique bracelet, great craftmanship Gosh this is a very special watch I also own couple rolex and pp But BB58 blue is just always the one on my wrist it's just simply that good a stealth I'd say for the money

Just bought the OG one today on a bracelet. You can literally buy any of them anywhere at retail here in the UK with no wait time. It just seems everywhere else in the world that you have to wait for them. Great watch, even on an 8 inch wrist.

I think I may actually go buy my first Tudor, thanks to your (another) beautiful video!

My favourite watch. During the week, I tend to alternate between this and the OG BB58 and look forward to wearing the blue more... Not convinced I’d call it fun though - I would say the new snoopy fits the description of “fun” better. Enjoyed the video though.

Purchased this watch a month ago and absolutely love it. Great (small) size, and I can wear it when I’d never wear my Journes, like working in the engine room or otherwise working on the boat. Couldn’t be happier with it and I did buy it cause.......its fun! But no bananas.....

have you done any video of any HYT watches yet ? if not i think a mechanical fluid movement watch would be a great vid material

It's blue, and an amazing blue 🤩. It is really an understated classy watch that doesn't attract the wrong attention of criminals as much as other luxury brand watches that really stand out and catch the wrong eyes. I own it for the last 2 weeks and didn't come back of my wrist since.

Blue, simply one of the coolest colours on a watch, especially on a bronze case.

The BEST review of this watch I’ve seen to date.

The only downside to a Black Bay 58 is that no-one ever has any in stock. All I find is a willingness "to take an expression of interest". A more general problem in Australia is the shameless price gouging that affects all retail. It is not for no reason that international retailers refer to Oz as "Treasure Island".

Gosh, the detail finish on this is SO much better than that Iconaut reviewed recently!! 😳

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.

Picked mine up yesterday. For my smallish wrist the fit is superior to the Submariner. I especially appreciate that it's only 11.7mm thick and the back is nearly flat unlike the Sub.

I would’ve been more interested in either a Black Bay GMT with the 58’s case size or a Pelagos with the 58’s case size.

Enjoyed the video. I own 2 Tudors & I’m happy with them. Thanks & Stay Safe. I look forward to your projects.

Tudor Black Bay GMT Pepsi MODEL# 79830RB & Tudor Black Bay Chronometer 79230R-BKSS

Wow, this has also been one of your best videos yet.

Great video - side note burn made me smile

I tried finding your shop in Paris, could not. Ended up at an AD. bought a black bay 58 blue. I'm happy, but I wonder what I wild have got if I had visited your shop or is there no shop?

The Tudor BB 58 is a watch that screams "wear me" because it's so comfortable on the wrist. It also seems to fly under the radar while at the same time being such a nice looking watch. This seems in contrast to Rolex sports watches that scream (to the world) "look at me". So Tudor might be the little brother of Rolex, but I think it's marketing image is far better than Rolex because it carries none of the Rolex (negative) baggage. And outside the watch enthusiast community, most people don't even know Tudor has any relationship with Rolex, which is probably a good thing. The BB 58 is just fun to wear. I bought the blue BB 58 and love it.

Would love to hear your thoughts on the taupe version.

This is the hottest watch at the moment. Mine arrives next week. Still love Rolex but more 39mm Tudor models would absolutely light this brand up. Fifty-Eight GMT surely has to be next.

Your best video to date team - fun! I have stuffy Rolex hulk and this fun bb58 and love them both lol

The people who produce these videos are great, what a good description of Tudor, spot on..... shame the experience in their shop's is terrible.

"It's the banana held down there, instead of up here" classic lol

Had this exact watch about 6 weeks now, love the blue suede type strap. In fact am really liking this watch, great weekend casual watch. Love wearing it.

Not to mention that I love it’s versatile with the three different straps/bracelet options. Please, indulge us.

This isn't a pelagos, Pelagos is much chunkier and has 500m of water resistance + helium escape valve.

Perfect analogy, the BB58 Blue is fun and that's why I bought it. I've worn mine during tasks I wouldn't otherwise consider wearing a watch for, just for the 'fun' of it. I'm even wearing it right now. With that said, the watch wouldn't be "fun" if you didn't already own a Rolex already. A Tudor can never substitute that, but it can add so much more value as a second (third, fourth, fifth etc.) watch.

It's really a cool watch. The blue color is evocative of the blue Submariner watches of the '60s and 70s which were the quintessential tool watches and issued to Navy divers in France. (The US NDU/UDT/SEALs had the option of buying them on selected procurement. I own the black one my uncle wore in Vietnam.) I wish the indices were square but maybe next run. I bought the black version on your recommendation when it first came out and it's great. It's what Rolex used to be. It's solid, easily legible, great brand, good power reserve and accurate to within a few seconds a week. No one has ever asked me if it's real.

Great video, thank you

Okay - I have this watch and why did I buy it ? First of all for the size which is very close to one of my other favorite daily watches - the Explorer II 40 mm. Then there is the color - I personally wear blue jeans and shirts a lot and blue is my favorite color ( I have four watches with blue dials ) so it just works well with my style. The next reason is the value of money. The Tudor BB58 is just a very good watch for the money. Next thing which also made my buy it - the different straps options. I got mine with the steel bracelet and also ordered the blue fabric strap which I have used the last four weeks non stop. Even though I haven’t sold a watch yet - it’s just nice to know that the secondhand market is there if one wants to sell the watch. Is Tudor a watch for those that can not afford a Rolex - maybe in so cases but it can also be a good supplement to your Rolex watches.

I like this shade of blue. It is a quality looking understated colour.

I used to own the black bay red 2824. I sold it because of its aluminium bezel which scratch easily. I prefer my small second hand oris diver which is more hardy.

Not trying to defend Rolex here, but I think the talking hands might have overstretched the "stuffy guy"-Rolex vs. "cool guy"-Tudor dichotomy a bit - all for the sake of tiptoeing around the fact that this is just a blue Tudor (albeit a good-looking one).
