I wouldn’t mind seeing a BB or BB58 black dial/black bezel without the gilt. Yeah, I know, that turns it into a Sub wannabe, but I’d still like it.

That bezel is more of a Sub bezel than a BB bezel

Doesn’t matter. We won’t be able to get one for at least a year, then it will be MSRP or over.

It's been less than a year since the BB58 hit dealers, and they're already trading under MSRP in mint condition.

Tudor can tease all they want, and they do make some great watches. But, if they can't produce, what's the point? I still haven't seen a GMT in the flesh at any of the half dozen Rolex/Tudor dealers in the capital of one of the richest countries on Earth.

Supposedly this is the "Submariner" being released by Tudor. I can't confirm or deny, I can only hope it's not true.

Yep, and somehow Tudor will find a way to make it in every color in the rainbow.

If they release a seiko homage after hinting at a Tudor sub reissue that will be pretty funny :mrgreen:

That photo is the so-called early prototype so I’m guessing 36mm with long lugs. I’m sure it’ll look better than the north face.

I find it funny as well. Tudor trolling the internet.

Meanwhile most AD's still can't keep the BB58 and BB GMT in stock, so they don't have huge motivation to push out a bunch of releases today, but who knows....

New Tudor Sub?

Post by r.palace » Wed Mar 20, 2019 4:08 am



I should’ve sold my BB58 after Basel, I’d surely get more now after seeing Tudor’s releases

I guess RPR was right about this one

The dial and bezel aren't too bad, can even live with 4 o clock crown and case shape but what the hell is going on with strap and end links combo? It makes the lugs to like a serios competitor for the LLD

Turdor's site says the case is 42mm. A little vague computing says the LTL length is about 58mm. And that's without that extra link.

While I don’t really care for either, am I the only one that thinks the prototype actually looked better? Better integration of the crown guards with no gaps, hands match better etc.
