Nice pics.
For owners, how does it sit on the wrist? Doesn’t look too high from the pics. |

Does the strap have those easy release pins?

Very cool concept , silver case. Wonder why its not used as a case material more often?

To answer the above the case sits low to the wrist at 12.7mm compared to the 11.9 of the BB58. The difference is negligible as its due to the sapphire case back. Conpared to the Original Black Bay its a very thin watch.
Neither the leather strap or the NATO has easy release pins. The bonus of the strap over the NATO is it allows you to see the movement through the sapphire back .. however the NATO does not as with all TUDOR NATOs they have pins build in and require tools to remove also with the NATO having part of its cloth under the case it covers the sapphire. The leather strap has leather on top and a rubber type material on the skin, it is of superb quality which you would expect from Tudor.. The watch case being made of a Silver Alloy is also heavier than the normal stainless steel watch with the silver been more dense. Also Tudor have said the Silver will not tarnish so should maintain its white colour. This is due to the make up of the alloy. |

A fine looking watch. I’ve registered my interest in this with a few places, and will see if I can see it in the flesh at some point. |

Count me in!
Havent worn it fully yet as the leather strap is a bit stiff and a bit too long for my wrist. I like to wear my watch fit so it doesnt move around. And this original strap is still too long even when I use the last hole. Dont think it will work if I punch a new hole because the buckle is quite fit with the leather already when pull to the last hole. Im afraid it will ruin the leather side if I punch a new hole. Still not sure which options I would do with the strap. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I need to see this in person before making a decision on if it’s a potential future purchase.

I bought mine the week it was released and when I got it the strap was too big for my wrist. Luckily I had some custom straps similar in color that I put on to wear at the moment. I’m waiting to order the nato strap when it’s available to be ordered as per my AD. Love it though! One of the most coolest and flys under the radar. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Looking good
It's quite weird that 925 look bigger than BB58 Blue when I tried on last year. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

For the time being I changed to this Bark and Jack leather strap that I bought for my Explorer last year.

Any one have an idea what the wait time is? I ordered mine a month ago (first in line), but of course Tudor/Rolex don't give the AD ship dates.

Anyone found the development of Patina/Tarnish on their watches?
I thought this guy's initial review of the watch was great. It also shows the difference between steel and silver dramatically when he puts it on his Stainless Steel Bracelet. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bWf...tTheWatchIdiot Then a couple of weeks later he notices some tarnish? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vRL6waR9RW0 |
