Tudor Black Bay Favorite Poll

About a year and a half past a poll was posted on this question. Since then there have been more additions to the Black Bay family and added time to experience more the newer models, I thought I'd update the poll. Since there are now 13 variants in the family and the poll only allows for 10 only watches without complications will be considered. What is your favorite Black Bay? Below is the link to the prior poll.

Mine would be a hybrid of an in-house black bay black with a first gen bracelet.

Which is yours? Never mind; I guess the added "just perfect" sums it all up.

Black with eta is more rare, but red eta looks better imho.

Missing the Chrono. This is my favourite.

Black ETA but might pick up a 41 to replace it. I've always liked the burgundy bezel, it's certainly not red, goes well with the gilt.

Black with ETA, but been thinking of picking up a 36 on leather, would make a nice pair.

Tried on the 36 on bracelet, and does seem really small even for my thin wrist, on leather I felt like it wears more like a dress watch and suitable for the size.

Had the red ETA on SS bracelet years ago (sold) but recently picked up the black w/in-house and couldn't be happier with the bracelet upgrades (love the faux rivets!), dial work enhancements, and of course, the buttery in-house movement which I can tell you is the most accurate watch I've ever owned. All the BBs are great watches regardless... and everyone should own both an ETA and in-house IMO.

It was either this or the BB Chrono...the S&G won out. Although the BB Steel is climbing the charts fast!
