Tudor Snowflake Second Hand or Lollipop

[samson66]

I was just taking a quick look at the latest Black Bay 41 on Tudor's website. I kind of forgot they have been making a subtle change to the newer Black Bays. They are gradually phasing out the snowflake second hand and replacing with a lollipop. The hour hand remains in the snowflake configuration.

Curious what everyone thinks about this change? I know the snowflake is very polarizing in the watch community, but I'm not sure mixing the two styles on the same watch is a good approach. My BB Ceramic still has the snowflake second hand. After comparing these two models I think I'm of the opinion it's all or nothing. Either keep the snowflake on both, or replace on both.

I prefer the differentiation that the full snowflake handset offers, but wish they would go with square indicies. That being said, I have a 79090, 16610, and a BB 925 that I like about equally for different reasons.

Don't have a problem with either. As a former vintage Tudor snowflake sub owner the handset has never been polarizing to me.

For me they always look great.
Some might not like them but for me they are fabulous

My OG Pelagos and 79220B Black Bay Blue are both snowflake so that’s my team.

I think both versions look fine and adds a different look.

I’ve always preferred the square indices with the snowflake hands. The lollipop second hand on the new BB41 flows better with the round indices and makes the large snowflake hour hand more pleasing.

I dont care either way but I do wish Tudor would be more consistent across their lineup

I’m fine with either the diamond or the lollipop seconds had. As long as the snowflake hour hand stays
