New to me Black Bay 58....with a special twist...

Second Tudor in the collection. Always loved the design of the Black Bay 58, especially since I don't have a sub in the collection. Lucky to acquire this one...

Congrats!

I’d like to know more about that watch!!! I know Tudor does custom runs, but I wonder who commissioned this?

So it's another tech branded or inspired edition. An unofficial Apple Watch enthusiast group commissioned this one. Inspired by the early days of Apple when Steve Jobs once said it's more fun to be a pirate than to be in the Navy. Keeping with the spirit of thinking outside the box, innovative and rebellious towards the industry and to maintain that spirit especially when the company was growing rapidly. The logo is the same pirate flag as the emoji used in iOS.

This article also shows some of the other unique Tudor editions that have been created...including the Ed Sheeran Divide Tour, Undefeated, Google, Facebook etc....
