Glad to hear. Congrats on a great watch. Which 58 did you go for?

I went with the black gilt dial. Excited to have it tomorrow!

Congratulations. The 58 may make you forget the Sub Date all together

And the BB58 came! It’s amazing.

IMHO - Don’t let a dealer play you like that. They can sell you that Tudor and never call you for a sub and they wouldn’t care at all. There’s no commitment on their end.

Looks great. I think that is the best one, with the red triangle.

You haven’t asked so it probably doesn’t need mentioning, but I remember freaking out the first time I tried to wind the BB58 a little extra, even though it was still ticking: the winding felt a bit gnarly and grindy as if there was sand or metal shavings in the mechanism. Of course, it was just feedback letting me know the watch was already fully wound. The 58 seems to fully charge just by wearing it, more than other automatic watches I’ve worn.
