The almost perfect diving watch for me

[Shadow Play]

Great watch. I really enjoy wearing my BB58.

I personally fail to see the big issue with regards to the rivet design. Each to their own though.

So Tudor as a company is telling prospective customers that the bracelet is a rivet steel bracelet. This is deception.

If they said the bracelet was riveted, that would be fraud. Fraud is illegal. Saying that it is a rivet steel bracelet is not fraud, but it is deceptive. I believe they are leading customers to believe the bracelet is riveted when in fact it has no rivets. It is an attempt to make people believe something that is not true. If Tudor wanted to be honest, they would tell us that what appear to be rivets are in fact just styling. Withholding information is tantamount to lying.

Hmm. Yes, fraud is illegal. They do have rivets and are not deceptive about that though not functional. The bracelets works excellently correct? How many people do you think believe the rivets have a real function? It’s like the gold Rolex president, well it’s not 100% gold it’s 18k or maybe 24k, which is an amalgam of other metals. It’s it deceptive to call it gold? What about stainless steel? It’s not 100% it’s a mixture is that fraud? You have to decide how far you take that argument my friend.

The real issue though is one of styling. Do you think the rivets really look out of place on a watch that clearly takes it styling cues from the past?

BB58 is a beautiful watch. I'm happy it works well for you!!! I've had quite a few Tudors and let them all go. Sorry to say that I don't thing there will be another one in my future however.
