Tudor Black Bay 58

While the Rolex/Tudor Pepsi’s have everyone’s attention, the Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight is very nice (especially on rivet style bracelet).

I'm very happy to see a smaller size BB option. Only wish they'd used the rose on the dial...

I don't have a Tudor, but I have got to say, they rock. I think they are the most dynamic watch company right now.

I wish they had kept the white filling on the bezel (as with BBN) and went back to the rose logo for this model...

I was thinking the same thing. It may stop me wanting the BBB Eta.

Do you think it will cool the prices on the BBB ETA with the Rose?

No, I personalty think it will have the same affect its having now. Holding of the current prices or slowly rising prices on the Noir. I am a biased owner, that couldn't care about price/value fyi.

It's great and I can't decide between the bracelet or leather. I'm usually a bracelet guy but on this one I think I may be leaning slightly towards the leather.

I'm going with the bracelet, can always source a leather band later on.

I think is a beauty and I would love the choice of a date complication. I can see Tudor eventually offering a date complication as they did with the 41mm version, however I hope they don't take too much time thinking about it as it took them 5 years to release 41mm models with date...

Been hoping for smaller/ thinner bb since I got rid of my 41bb since it was to thick. Will definitely be getting one.

They're gorgeous, I recently picked up the blue bezel version with the leather strap. Unique and retro, pretty cool.
