Incoming Tudor...

Hi Guys and Gals,

It's been a long time since I posted with an incoming.

The urge struck last week while I was browsing and came across the Tudor BB 58 Navy.

I'd had wind of it back when it was released but paid no attention to it as I thought I had enough in the collection to keep me content...well that's all drastically changed lol. I googled it and watched a couple of vids on YouTube and although I'm not drawn to smaller watches I thought it would make an ideal everyday beater watch to replace my Seiko SKX007, although no date.

I made a call Tuesday and had it on my wrist Wednesday.

I'm quite happy with it, fit is good, case thickness is not bad. Fitting of the bracelet is a bit hit and miss and I've read the sizing was an issue for some. I don't really like the faux riveted bracelet, I think they could have done without that.

But all in all it's amazing value for what you get.

Think I'm back in the game now, thinking of getting a Speedy next. Always wanted one and never ventured into Omega.

Thanks for reading,
M.

A blue BB 58 and a Harrods BB would be a nice Tudor collection!

That would make a nice little pair, but you can only get the Harrods one pre-owned/grey now as no longer available IIRC, and at a premium now.
