A non-gilt, black dial BB58 woulda been nice.
If you put a large switch in some cave somewhere, with a sign on it saying 'End-of-the-World Switch. PLEASE DO NOT TOUCH', the paint wouldn't even have time to dry.

Re: Tudor Releases New Watches April 7th
I realize this isn’t on topic, but does anyone know the general availability of the blue and black BB58s? Is this something that I could typically call around and find locally or is it the same basic deal as Rolex now?

I was on the list in 2 local ADs, Ed's AD, and Ben Bridge.JP Chestnut wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 1:25 pmI realize this isn’t on topic, but does anyone know the general availability of the blue and black BB58s?

I was looking for some other watch when I walked in to one near Arcadia (Asian Beverly Hills in So Cal).
They had two to my surprise. Both on soft touch leather. I had to get it. The other one sold too.
They don't know if they'll get more but I can put you in touch with them, if you wish.
They had a black one too (on leather).

Prices for used on Watchrecon versus Tudor’s published MSRP ($3700 on bracelet) suggest they’re still hard to get.JP Chestnut wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 1:25 pmI realize this isn’t on topic, but does anyone know the general availability of the blue and black BB58s?

Re: Tudor Releases New Watches April 7th
You are unlikely to find them in stock, but I believe they can be had from an AD with a short wait. Maybe 2-4 months last I heard. Good news is if you don’t like, you can sell for full value to someone who doesn’t want to wait.Henryj wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 2:03 pmPrices for used on Watchrecon versus Tudor’s published MSRP ($3700 on bracelet) suggest they’re still hard to get.JP Chestnut wrote: ↑Tue Apr 13, 2021 1:25 pmI realize this isn’t on topic, but does anyone know the general availability of the blue and black BB58s?

Gotta say - the silver version of the BB is growing on me.

Yeah me too. I saw a pic somewhere and I had the feeling it looks even better in the real life. Like the OG BB without the gilt.matt.wu wrote:Gotta say - the silver version of the BB is growing on me.

Too bad no bracelet and that fucking lug gap

Tiny watch is for NATOs anyway. BB58 has always been perfect NATO watch on my wrist.nweash wrote:matt.wu wrote:Gotta say - the silver version of the BB is growing on me.

Re: Tudor Releases New Watches April 7th
I just don’t see the point of sterling silver in a dive watch case. It’s an effort to be different for the sake of being different, like when Terry wears a dress but fails to wax.Terpits wrote:Yeah me too.

And hairy, Terry legs in an airy summer skirt sounds like the good kind of different.

Dammit guys. I can’t see this watch without picturing Terry in an airy summer skirt bent over holding his unshaved ankles.hoppyjr wrote:Duhmatt.wu wrote:At least it’s not priced astronomically.hoppyjr wrote:I just don’t see the point of sterling silver in a dive watch case.

A sterling silver Ranger will look right. It had the adventure theme of an old sterling silver pocket watch.
Watch collector since 1989
Re: Tudor Releases New Watches April 7th
Would be the only way I’d likely ever be able to afford a PM watch

Not judging.
