A few more pics on the wrist in different light sources - basic shade and light - and you can see the differences...

Let me just add one part about the faux rivet issue. Get over it. It’s a great look, period. People will cry and say oh well there is no function of that. Every watch has a style and the rivets add to the style. What’s the function of wide lugs? Nothing beyond style. What’s the utility of gold on a sport watch, nothing. What’s the function of ceramic over aluminum on a bezel, little to nothing. What’s the purpose of a green sub? Nothing. The answer to all of these is style. So for the anti rivet people out there, get over it. Same argument goes for the people that refer to faux patina as if lume can only be stark white instead of almond.

Great post - thanks for sharing this. With similar smaller wrists a diver hasn’t really sang to me despite loving the Sub. Every time I try a new one on it just doesn’t feel right!
This looks great and I’m going to give myself a few months to ensure that I actually like it and am not just being taken in by the current hype (which I would easily give in to - lol) You post however is making me want to buy one NOW!! |

Really enjoying it. As said by others, lots of variation in color based on lighting.

Here's my contribution for photos - BB58 Blue on felt/rubber strap (on 7.75 inch wrist):
The strap can accommodate at least 8 inch wrist. |

Thanks for sharing, and congrats! I have to say that the three strap options that Tudor offers are all very cool...although my top choice is the bracelet, I would be proud to wear the strap or the nato-style. How would you describe the feel of that blue strap?

For Omega and PP rubber straps, there are grooves built underneath to help with airflow. This strap is a solid/flat piece of rubber - very hot during the summer. |
