I like it more than the burgundy one, but I wish it had square 'flake' plots and a date.

Karl i agree, square plots would be amazing but i still really like this one. One of the few modern watches id purchase. Rolex kind of let me down with the new Pepsi. Not digging the WG. |

i personally love the cold blue steel color. Reminds me of what attracted me to my red was the gunmetal insert. That color of blue will go with just about everything.

I agree Tudor's blue black bay was the best new addition. I like the blue bezel and the silver on the dial so much better than the previous version. I can only hope for a black bezel with strait hour hand some day. If a black insert becomes available (official release or after market), I may have to get one.

Rolex needs to bring chamfer edges back. Dont they see how beautiful they are on the black bay?

Tudor has been on a great run. This one is just stunning.

The Tudor Ranger & the blue Tudor sub........a pretty sharp duo.......& the Ranger has lug holes!
My favorite Rolex are the new SD & Pepsi GMT......classics rule!

The case thickness is a beast on the Black Bay. Looks great in blue, although I'm not a fan of the lug width being 22mm as it looses the proportions of the original subs.

I think that Tudor hit another real winner here. Suspect that this may be a future purchase for me.

I love the blue color. They need some end links to pull off that leather strap. I hope this would have the same blue lume as the Pelagos.

I like it but I think I prefer my burgundy one better. I love the gold and chocolate dial. I'd love to have both but can't see me parting with the one I already have.
