Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Watch Review

The 2018 Baselworld announcements brought us the new Tudor Black Bay 58, a "Remastered" iteration of the watch with entirely different proportions and a new movement meant to honor the legendary Tudor 7924 Oyster Prince Submariner released in 1958 - the watch that was a follow up to the 7922 which came out in 1954 - Tudor's first dive watch Size difference from the original notwithstanding, the Black Bay 58 gets the full measure of what Tudor has to offer when it comes to finishing and embellishments Tudor's done a great job at preserving the heritage appeal of the boxed crystal throughout the Black Bay line and the 58 is no exception.

The main theme of this review has been, essentially, that this version of the Black Bay is smaller, and I like that fact - this theme is carried onto the bracelet The Tudor Black Bay 58 clocks in at just under 12mm thick, and this is largely due to their new COSC certified movement When it's all said and done, I think the Black Bay 58 is a good direction for Tudor to be moving in.

With the callback to the Tudor 7924, the brand has done an excellent job of honoring the heritage that the whole Black Bay line was based on. . Source
