Everyone seems enamored with the new BB 58 Blue...
But the original is oh so much better.
Of course I'm biased - but how could you not be with the Snowflake...

Amazing looking watch, nothing wrong with the new one but I prefer the original myself. It will probably be the next watch I pick up if I don't scoop up a day date first.

The new one looks great but for me the old ones look way better

I prefer the Original Snowflake myself as well. Followed closely by the 79090B/79190B. Yours looks awesome.

Not sure why Tudor decided to use round hour markers on the new one instead of squares, but combined it with the "Snowflake" hands. Seems like a mismatch.
In other words, definitely prefer the vintage versions! |

People like shiny new things, until the novelty wears off. Hopefully though, it doesn’t and everyone enamored with their BB58 blue come to appreciate their watch like you do your Blue snowflake
