SubC Date + BB36 or BB58

Hey guys,

Looking for a daily low-key watch. Pelagos and GMT are out since I want something under 40mm. Which would you pair?

SubC Date + BlackBay 58 (is it going to be a bit too redundant?)

SubC Date + BlackBay 36

Thanks

Edit: BTW, I’m open to any other Sports watch under 40mm.

I say go BB58. It’s the best offering Tudor has ever produced IMO. I don’t think it will be redundant along side the subc.

BB36 is a great daily wear. It doesn’t get much love around here but it is very versatile. Goes great on many straps and the slimmer profile of the case helps minimize the “slab” effect many complain of with the BB line. Highly recommend

Love how versatile the BB36 is. Where is the second strap from?

How will it not be redundant ? They are both diving watches, with very similar dials and bezels, and there's a minute difference between their case sizes. It's mostly the hands which look different.
