Flipped my hulk for a blue bay 58
Loved my hulk but couldn’t resist making the flip and picking up a 58 blue bay and cash toward a travel
trailer to enjoy with the family. First impression of the 58 is it is absolutely perfect for my 7inch wrist and the dial -although matte is dynamic in terms of shades of blue depending on lighting.  Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Thats not a deal you see everyday! Without commenting on the relative merits of the change, your new blue BB 58 looks great! Congratulations!

Wow! I think overall this is a great outcome. BB58 is a fantastic watch - only thing you're really giving up the the date function, and having extra cash to use towards family adventures is really priceless. Enjoy your new watch and hope you have awesome travel plans.

That's awesome. Nothing wrong with flipping your Hulk for that blue beauty and the trailer. Hope you made a nice profit :) Enjoy!

Sometimes there's more to collecting. Memories are worth way more. Substitute watch is also not a bad choice either. Win win.

Why the BB58 instead of a sub is my question?

The cash difference is going to the trailer and still wanted some color. Now I have the blue bay and a speedy. When I bought my hulk I almost got the 116600 instead. I’ll probably pick up a datejust or sea dweller at some point in the future but checking out this other hobby while enjoying the Tudor in the meantime. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

If you're happy with the trade then it's a good trade.
Enjoy the watch and the trailer!

I think it was a wrong trade. The Rolex will continue to go up in value whereas the Tudor will loose value relatively speaking.

It’s quite refreshing to see you did the trade , the so called perceived loss of value in trading your hulk for a 58 Blue will be more than made up by the value in quality family time you will spend with your family, which is priceless . And also having some great adventures I’m sure , with the added bonus that the 58 Blue will be on your wrist . Please post some pictures of your travels when you go
