Just bought BB58 Navy Blue, thanks for the outstanding channel and honest opinions.

This is the best youtube intro i have ever seen. I came back years later just to see it again.

The BB58 is awesome. It's basically a vintage Rolex Submariner with new hardware.

As a watch collector I am drawn to your channel for the pure down to earth reviews. Your dedication to the craft is amazing. Your videos bring a vintage warmth to so many things throughout life. Well done. Keep up the great content.

By far the best review I've seen about BB58 to date. Thoroughly enjoyed watching it. I sold my OG BB58 for all the same reasons you've mentioned. Thank you for a great video.

I like that Tudor flies under the radar, a watch you can wear without worrying about getting mugged for it.

Love that story about that guy in the club. I have a friend that is very similar to how you described him, and with unique artsy style tattoos. The BB58 is the only watch he owns. It just works

Quality of the videos is absolutely unbelievable how you can capture all those details. Love it

Honest, sincere, favourable, loving and lavishly illustrated review ! Time is always well spent in your company !

Strictly isn't the same without Brucey! Haven't watched since he passed - just not fun anymore.

Really enjoyed this review. Your descriptions and observations are a lot more evocative than many other reviewers - no one else I have watched would use the term ‘Winter colours’ to describe a dial, but your spot on! Plus the observation about the hands catching the light before the dial is also something others would miss, or not think to mention; I just sold a watch for exactly that reason - I would struggle to read the time at a glance in shadow or shade.... You are winning me over more with every video and I wish the channel tons of success. All the best to you✌️

Once again great review. As mentioned, there is nothing wrong with owning a Tudor. It is a beautiful watch with big brother history.

Dude, that shot of the Omega where the light reflects off the hands and the dial remained "blacked out", amazing stuff. Thank you, I am now in the market for a vintage, wave dial Omega...like I really needed another reason. Who knows, I may even check out a Black Bay (but I genuinely dislike the faux rivets). Stay well and keep up the great content.

You are officially my favourite new watch guy on youtube. Your ability to tell a story, and comment on the nuances the other guy miss is engaging. Most other reviewers read from the same template or script, gets old.

I think this is the point. I CHOOSE Tudor. Not because it’s all I can afford or can get hold of. I CHOOSE it. I like it more irrespective of price.

@@markgabrielzamora9044 I think that’s right. There is stuff to enjoy with both brands in the collection. The “cut price Rolex” label for Tudor is a very dated idea.

To me the fifty eight provides the perfect proportions and weight. Sold my 41mm to get the 39mm. It's definitely a keeper for me. I also agree with your take on it. The Tudor is the jeans and t shirt, no frills watch. No pretense and does the job it's meant to do.

Glad you softened your view on BB58. I am a Canadian watch collector and traveler, I love Rolex and Venice !! My local AD carries Rolex and Tudor. Last year he invited me to look at the BB58, like you, I didn't think much of Tudor or the offer until I had it on my wrist - I bought it on the spot. I love my Blue Yacht-Master and Submariner but this is different in an odd way that I cant explain. I truly enjoy your videos, they bring back so many memories in Italy and for that I thank you.

Great review. I just bought the blue BB58 as my first luxury watch. I was finding it hard to decide between the blue and black, but I find the blue a little more versatile for my style and less showy. Really pleased with the purchase

Can't make my mind up on this watch. I think I prefer the black version. Great review though, thanks.

Awesome video as usual. Excellent use of matching "Fill" colour on the text boxes, when telling us dimensions. I like the hands on my Tudor Glamour much more. It is an underknown (underappreciated) and awesome watch.

So, I picked up this watch just about one year ago now. My reason for getting it was more nostalgic… Back in the mid 90s I purchased a brand new Tudor Submariner 40mm for the whopping sum of $940 US. I had it for a couple years then I traded it towards a 1997 two tone bluesy, which I still own to this day. Although I love the Rolex, I always regretted getting rid of that Tudor Sub. So, the BB58 blue comes pretty close to the sub I had all those years ago, and (I don’t know if this is a good or a bad thing!) but I was able to get the new Tudor for half of what the vintage subs like mine are selling for. So far, I am very happy with it!

Cracking content. Loved the narrative, humour and thoughts on the Tudor (cherry). Definitely going to have a look at probably the 925 version and see how that fits on my wrist.

Got to be the best KZread channel by a mile - Thanks Mate.

Absolutely love your channel man, one of the best. You have to figure out how to do more of the watches in movies videos. I absolutely love them!!!

Love the reviews that are the foundation of this channel for me .. great content as per 👍

Being a fan of Tudor (I love my BB36) as well as a guitar player, I totally get what you mean about the feeling that Tudor is like the equivalent to a Japanese Reissue Fender. I understand this was not a knock. That said, recall that there was a time when the reissue Strats and Teles made in Japan were actually better than/on par the reissues Fender was making in the US. I’d be so bold as to say the same thing is happening with Tudor, re: Rolex. Of course, given the choice, I’d take an American Reissue 57 Strat over a Japanese reissue. But I’d still love playing the Japanese reissue because I know how good it plays. Likewise, I’d take. Rolex GMT over a Tudor...but if I had to have the Tudor, I would still get much enjoyment out of it. Anyhow...big fan of the channel. Keep doing what you do. It is appreciated.

Great review but I find myself watching all your videos because they are more than reviews. Great videography, pictures, perspectives even music choice. Your videos not only interest me but they chill me out! Keep up the great work

I don’t know why there are these “camps” for the watch brands...I have 2 subs, a Pelagos, a couple old Tags, a Zenith Defy and a SMP 300. I enjoy them all and they each offer something different. I’d like to add a Lange and a Patek or 2 to complete things for me. I haven’t found an end all, be all watch and I doubt I ever will as long as there are so many cool timepieces out there.

But hey I got a couple old tags.

Great pictures from Venice again. Makes my Sunday morning! As for the watch: if I don‘t want a Rolex and on purpose buy something else of great quality, it would be an Omega. I hear your story about the film guy, but I still see Tudor as the more available and cheaper Rolex.

Your review is really spot on. I own a BB58 black which for my 61/4 inch wrist is just perfect, but I agree with you that for larger wrists it might be a little too "under the radar". PS: thanks for showing the beauties of my country in your videos.

I had the chance (and took it) to pick the Watch up for a steal today. Never really interested me but now I have it …. I do really like and it’s very comfy. And of course as soon as I got one I needed to validate my choice so watched your film on it 🤣

Great watch, I was in the market for my first watch. Was on the waiting list for a Rolex sub but found the case too beefy.. also did not like how it was so shinny. started looking at a vintage Rolex model with smaller case size but was on the fence to buy a vintage sub for everyday wear.. once I saw the BB58 loved the vintage feel/look. Really gives me that vintage Rolex sub feel that I can wear daily. Love it! 👍👍

Another awesome beautiful well executed video!!! You have the best cinematography in KZread. TTWC should be nominated for the KZread Oscars!!

I do not consider Tudor a second brand after Rolex either. It is just a different watch in a lot of different aspects. I bought a Tudor after I bought a Rolex. Great video!

Love the classic simplicity of this watch. It's on the smaller side for me but wears.so well. Easy everyday wear the you can dress up or down.

Sitting watching this in Belfast Oisin and mildly jealous of your surroundings - Another great video 👍

The snowflake is one of the aspects that drew me to Tudor in the first place, I am glad it doesn't have something ubiquitous like a Mercedes. I agree with some other commenters that the indicators would also look better squared, but perhaps that is what the Pelagos is for...

@daviddeavours4909

3 күн бұрын

I agree 100% When i read about the history of the snowflake hand it made perfect sense and gave the watch its own characterl

I have a Rolex and love it. I bought a BB58 last year because I liked how it looked more than what Rolex are currently making - so very pleased to hear you saying (#06:00) "It's not a compromise". Great watch. Your blue one looks great too, but I couldn't justify owning two BB58s! I'd love a blue diver, so it'd have to be that Omega of yours for my lineup. Agree about those awful faux rivets - that's why I bought my black BB58 on the leather strap instead. I like the snowflake hands, but I'd have preferred if Tudor had made the indices square as well, like on the Pelagos.

Great review and content again! Although I think I disagree on a few things, I find the fineness of the bezel coin edge very easy to grab, and is super smooth to turn. The snowflake hands I think are what adds to the Tudor personality, it's different to everything else, I think they work perfectly. I have the BB, not the 58 .

I’ve got the Tudor GMT and I totally agree on the snowflakes. I think they are gorgeous and on the GMT there’s a nice red one too. It makes it uniquely Tudor. If anything I think it looks better than the Rolex Mercedes hour hand.

These watches are definitely growing on me.

Spot on review at one of my favorite spots on the globe.

I think you’ll find your Seadweller and Submariner turn clockwise and anti clockwise to set the time unlike Rolex clockwise as you said. Great video again. Thanks

This is a nice watch.Was waiting 2 years for the blue to come out but when it did I still prefer the black. I think they should have included the red triangle lume pip to give it some contrast.

Thank you. I have wanted you to take a look at Tudor. You said that you don't like the snowflake hands, I have the same problem with the hands of the rolex. I just love the angular design of the Tudor hands.

Definitely “simpler” than my black BB 58 which was love at first sight for me. The blue would be a nice to have as well. Tudor is a great brand with some interesting pieces.

Very nice oisin, I popped my own cherry got the pelagos blue dial and wow. Very similar yet a tweak of difference. The colour of bezel and dial took me few days to really get use to it. I love it. I know it isn't the black bay 58 but I don't like a watch that has no date function. Why I chose pelagos over 58. I'm happy as Larry to own it n the titanium and blue is stunning in all shades of the day. Still can't believe I had to wear my hulk for two mths while visiting the store near by. Such an up yourself attitude some dealers can have, (stuck up) wanna be rich assholes dress up like business men n look down on hard workers.

Scratched the diver itch I had without the silly Rolex price or the ugly magnified date window not to mention no helium escape valve too! Nice to see Tudor get some love. Seems to be in and out of availability but not worth the silly money being sought on the grey market. A very solid watch for the price. My daily wear and gives the Aqua Terra a break. Thanks again.

I own the Tudor heritage chronograph with the ETA movement great watch which I wear everyday scratches in places too ! Not too keen on the black bay range to be honest. I do like the GMT with leather strap that I might purchase in the new year thou. Great vid as always.

Interesting, I too share most of your opinions on the watch. When it came out and all the hype was going on I stopped by my AD to see what the fuss was about. They had one that was already sold. Because of my relation with them they assured me they could get me one. While I was looking at it I spotted another Blue Tudor in the case, a Pelagous. I tried it on and walked out with it on my wrist. bigger bolder Diver in Titanium just love it.

It’s so funny, everyone who actually handles this sucker; loves it. It’s just a gem. Like you I’m a Yeti i’v got an 8 1/4” wrist and its jus a bit small. One of the reasons I love my BB 41. Another great video, thank you

Been wanting to check out Tudor for a while now. Great video!

Wonderful honest video! I completely get the hype over this watch, but each time I try on the BB58 series I run into the same sentiment that you bring out. Bezel feel hard to grip and turn, smaller watch feel. I guess my expectation of a dive watch stems from a sub or fifty fathoms so the comparison is not apples to apples. Good solid watch. Just not for the collection. Glad to see everyone excited about it though.

I like the quirky hour hand and one thing for certain is you'll always know that it's the hour hand despite poor lighting conditions,It's a nice vintage side step from your favourite watch brand.................................

Artistically perceptive. Bravo Maestro 👍👍

Agree it fits my 7” wrist just fine with that wingspan. It’s my first so I don’t have any other Tudor to compare it to. The blue is great! And the power reserve is top shelf. I may not have to wind this one in the rotation. It will be the only one I can say that for sadly. First world problems all the way here. Cheers

So pleased with my 58 OG I politely declined the offer last week to buy a YM platinum 40 from my AD.A lovely piece of jewelry but would not have the occasion to wear it.Investing the fund into an antique English pocket watch.

Totally agree. I could easily afford a Rolex sub but I prefer the Tudor brand and bought a bb 58. The brand is much braver and creative in my opinion. Very much a test bed for Rolex I think where they are on the safe side.

Hello. Love your channel. I have the Black Bay Blue from 2014. Thankfully, the bracelet does not have the rivets. I’m nearing my first Rolex and your channel gets me excited for what the buying and wearing experience will be. I am hoping for the yacht master 40. Cheers.

Another great video! Honest reflection on the BB great to hear as not tried on myself but have been interested, having larger wrists too I think it may be a little small. Thanks buddy.

I’m with you… I couldn’t stand the hype surrounding the Blue Bay but it looks damn good on your wrist.

Tried one on at the dealer last week, much better than the GMT.

Turned 40 a month ago, what better way to celebrate than to buy a Rolex! Nope, none available, mile long waitlist. Long story short, picked up this same watch and love it, now I don’t really care if I get called for a Rolex.
