Incoming (tudor) 58
Picked up this lovely fifty eight this morning. Having received the call a few weeks ago I only managed to pick it up today due to being away.
 I love this watch. This is just a quick snap that doesn’t really do it justice. The sizing is absolutely spot on and the comfort is right up there. The bezel colouring (differs to the original B.B.-n) works well for me. Crystal seems slightly more domed and just like my B.B.-N the dial is a lovely matte. Pictures don’t do it justice. I love this watch. Probably my cheapest watch but easily up there with my favs. My other black bay will live on its nato strap now. I know this isn’t Rolex / Tudor related but also picked this up a couple of weeks ago  I’m a big fan of vintage proportions and I love most of the 39.4mm size speedys. I wanted this since it was quietly announced at basel this year. Pulsometers were an optional fitment to original speedmasters and I always like to buy different pieces to the norm. I know this doesn’t work for every collector and the speedmaster (professional) has a great following. I like these ck variations and did ever since I purchase the first omega in space variant. It’s been an exciting couple of weeks!! I just have one question, my 58 winds counter clockwise (crown turn towards me) to advance time. This is different to every other Rolex and Tudor I own. Any ideas why? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Mate, you should post your new watch on the BB58 Owner's thread!

Congratulations the 58 is such a great looking watch, I love the vintage look of it. Tudor really did something right with that one

Thanks guys, great day. This 58 is everything i expected and more.
Ordered a couple of nato's for its big brother my black bay-n This one is certainly going to get a lot of wrist time. If they do a 58 GMT i'm getting it asap. |
