Is the Tudor Black Bay 58 GMT... Perfect?
มุมมอง 9K4 หลายเดือนก่อน
In this video I go hands on with the Tudor Black Bay 58 GMT and try to figure out if the watch is... perfect. We use multiple criteria including size, aesthetic, feel, specs, all in between.

    I hope they do expand the variants of this watch. For me, 39mm but without any gilt (I'm ok with a slight patina lume colour) on the dial or hands and a jubilee bracelet would be perfect.

    As a bigger wrist person - I love the 41mm Black Bay - (and I love the simplicity of no-date for this watch - I have my Navitimer when I want 'busy'!) - Tudor is killing it!

    I still need to see this watch in person. But I wear gold, not large amounts, but enough that a gold patina doesn’t concern me. But I still feel this would be amazing in monochrome… maybe borrow (or blatantly steal) from LONGINES the gloss black vs non-glossed bezel. It looks amazing in person and is an awesome look on a black bezel.

    Found you from insta. Woohoo! Nice info. I’d like to know more about how Rolex does the gold in the watches. Specifically, the bracelet. Is it just gold plating? Will it scratch off? Sorry new to the game and don’t know some basic stuff on the big brands. I’d also love to see a video on the Air-King… that’s my low key goal watch now. Course I’ve not looked through your videos yet and you might have already. Hahahha again great info!

    Everyone is entitled to their opinions, but the root beer has been around for quite some time. it’s a watch that does not age well because of the oyster bracelet. It starts looking dull and it scratches very easily. The new GRNR is new and a first for Rolex. It has a sparkle that oozes classy and the jubilee bracelet not only makes the watch comfortable to wear, but makes the watch stand out. I suspect Rolex will also do the root beer with a jubilee bracelet. When that happens everyone will be chasing it

    @Mench951 3 หลายเดือนก่อน

    It's a gilt dial - that's not the same as faux patina. Faux patina is when they color the markers and hands to make them look aged. Also, the notion that Tudor is going to phase out their regular divers seems pretty remote. Not everyone wants or needs a GMT. A monochromatic bezel with one less hand has a lot of popular appeal.

    Enjoying the content and this is a great overview, Ben. Ironic that this is the subject of your 2nd video upload, as I had recently just sold mine (maybe the universe is telling me something!). I actually did find I was getting a bit too much attention wearing it, as it is a stunner, and wanted to go more low-key with full steel versatility. So, fortunately, was able to pick-up the Sub no-date and Exp 1 40mm from my AD to add into the collection during the following months. Still, I do reminisce about the Rootbeer and there is certainly something quite special about it!

    I agree with your opinion of the opaline dial GMT. I own that one. I got it because I loved the dial, but the thickness is definitely an issue. I thought I could get over the slab feel it has but I'm not sure now.I have a 7 inch wrist and feel I can just pull it off, but I can't see it remaining in my collection long term.

    Awesome review Ben! I have this watch finally after 3months waiting and I somewhat agree with the bezel gold, which i got used to and can tolerate. I did read that the OG BB58's are actually developing patina on the bezel and the gold actually turns white/silver. I cant wait for this piece to develop patina. Its accuracy is dangerously better than my omega SM300 heritage. This will be a sought-after piece if Tudor stopped making these since it is their first GMT Master Chronometer which means alot in a watch brand's history.

    i wish they kept the "maxi" dial of the original bb58 divers instead of reserving it for the bb41 METAS. this is my one gripe about the recent tudor releases (not just the bb58 gmt). the indices and the hands are smaller/scaled down compared to the old ones.
