I’d be shocked if there wasn’t at least one variant of the 58 released.

Interest has peaked after the disappointing Basel releases... The queries for a 58 I have on chrono24 has increased massively.

An already hard to get watch just went up in value. This will just maintain the above retail resellers market. Great news of you have one already.

Recently gifted one to my son for his 21st, it’s a great looking watch, perfectly balanced.

I got mine with a leather strap, does anyone know if the 39mm oyster perpetual bracelet will fit the BB58?

No, I offered up my Everest leather with end links (which fits OP39)and the pin holes are located too far back on the lugs. You would have a gap between the case and the end link.

Just noticed that the retail price of the BB 58 went up to $3,625 in the USA (was $3,575). Not sure what to make of it or what the effect will be. I have been following this watch and found it interesting.

Wondering if Tudor have raised prices across the board or just the watches with waiting lists ie, BB58 and perhaps the GMT.

Just grab mine today from AD. Pop up in store in the morning to check if i need to be on waiting list and luckily they have one instock, basically some guy cancel his order. And yes the price jump from £2560 to £2600 even the sticker price in the box still say £2560. I guess they got their system change.

I’ve noticed some Pelagos prices as £3160 and others at £3200. So maybe a few watches have changed in price.

I've got a 6.25" wrist. Would the BB58 still look OK? A wrist shot from someone with a comparable wrist size would be great. Thanks

My wrist is 6". I find it within my limit still, and proportional to my body size (Im relatively slim and short, also wear an SD4k, but can never pull anything beyond 40mm). 58's overall case proportion makes it highly wearable for small wrists.

Looks great! Thanks for the wrist shot. Now I need to decide between the bracelet or the leather strap.

Here it is on a 6.5” wrist, you’ll be fine. It wears so well. Also, the bracelet is amazing so my vote is for that.

Tudor got this really right. Very vintage look and properly sized.

I much prefer the BB58 to the SubC in its current iteration.

I bought on steel and have also sourced tge OEM fabric and OEM leather. I've also put on a number of other straps. Looks great on all. This is a keeper.

They are becoming increasingly scarce as all ADs around where I live haven't had one come in for the last two months or so. Granted, its a hella fine watch for the price.

Tudor definitely have been stepping up with their releases. I used to not care much for Tudor, but I just might get a BB soon.

Could someone post a shot showing the rivets on the side of the bracelet? Much appreciated. Thank you.

I love mine, I wore it daily for about a year before just recently getting an Explorer. I'd prefer it didn't have gold on the bezel insert, but other than that it's pretty much perfect.

Do you guys think this will come down in price on the secondary market? I know older BB models sold for quite a bit less than MSRP, and this one is actually selling for at or greater than MSRP second-hand. The Rolex shortage has spilled demand over to Tudor it seems.

I was really hoping for a different color this year at Basel, but I'll wait around and maybe next year we'll see a new color.

My ideal BB 58 (not going to happen, but one can dream):
-Black/white color scheme (silver surrounds, white writing on the bezel and dial, etc)
-No rivets on bracelet
-Keep the red triangle on bezel
-Reduce size of hands and dial markers, but this is not a deal breaker
-Rose on dial, but not a deal breaker
-Controversial, but with date :), not a deal breaker

I do believe the second hand price will come down once supply meets demand. I'm surprised it hasn't already to be honest. Unfortunately, I don't think your ideal configuration will happen, since it didn't with the 41mm BB. I think Tudor is avoiding putting out one too similar to the Submariner.

Called up my AD and put my name on the list. Unfortunately he has no idea when he might receive one.
