@@edgardjulio7679 I'd say that's a feature of a bronze case. You'll either like that or dislike that. Personally I hate how polished and shiny modern rolexes are compared to older models so a bronze case doesn't sound so bad.
Could you please do an update review on the bb58 bronze. Would really appreciate it. Wanted to know how it patina'ed, if you wore it in summer, did you ever clean the watch etc
Own both, and the bronze 58 is the best looking watch and the watch I get more compliments on than anything in my collection. It’s a better watch, period.
Great comparison @ Time+Tide Watches. Just one small correction there: Tudor BB 58 comes with COSC certified enhanced with +4/-2 secs per day accuracy, whilst Rolex's superlative precision is +2/-2 secs per day. Rolex only has 2 secs per day advantage.
Shield to protect the crown, damn.. Hans Wilsdorf is a true branding and marketing genius! My pick would still be the Submariner just because it has the feature that I needed, date and on the fly micro adjust.
This version BB58 has micro adjust on the fly too as he showed which is fine for day yo day use. Hoping they release an after purchase S/S version of this clasp too.
Thanks for sharing your experience on how you experience the bronze material over time. I can imagine that this is a big factor many are unsure about when considering bronze watches.
Excellent comparison. While I loved the five digit Subs, I have not been a fan of the maxi case. I have a BB58 on order as it looks more the way I think a Sub should look than the Rolex.
Wow. Never heard the shield story before. Great video. Sub v 58 is topic that has been beat to death in general, and yet you managed to make a video that felt like untrodden ground. Great mix of facts and subjective comparison/feel etc. Awesome. Subscribed
My BB58 is extremely accurate so far, its keeping at around 1 second a day, super impressed as I also have a very active job so it gets knocked about a fair bit
I nearly swapped my Tudor Black Bay 79220B (Smiley) for a Rolex Submariner plus $ a few years ago and now I'm glad I didn't. Tudor fills the gap for a diver for me quite nicely whilst I leave Rolex for the GMT function. I have the discontinued 116710 LN Master 2.
@@Timeandtidewatches Never heard it before because it's marketing BS, Rolex is known for it, just like claiming things it didn't invent like the automatic movement or the Oyster Case.
The 114060 ticks all the boxes. Big wrist the super case keeps the watch remarkably stable on the wrist unlike the earlier “elegant” thinner lug models but the bb looks the goods
For me the explorer style dial on the Tudor was the selling point. I have a 43mm BBB with a slate gray dial and just adore it. It feels a little cleaner to me.
How’s the Tudor stacking up a year later? I’m a bit bipolar on mine. Sometimes I’ll wear it for a week straight. Sometimes I feel like it’s just too weird a watch and I want to be rid of it. No watch has ever brought this much drama to my collection before.
Troubling to hear that the bracelet does not leave any marks on the skin. Will the bracelet patina at the same rate as the watch case? Or will I wind up with a green oxidized case and a shiny alloyed bronze-ish bracelet over time (yes, I will dive it in sea water!)?
Hi, Do you think the new model in bronze 2024 will rise the price in the long term although now it seems they have not had all the success that they deserve..
Money aside the Sub all day everyday.. but the new 2020 models for sure with the 70 hour power reserve and new case…. Rolex History & icon, as well as it will go up in value for the most part as time goes by..
@@Timeandtidewatches I dont think we did. But I remember seeing you there. And I remember that exact quote about the shield to the crown. It gave me goosebumps for some reason
the correct name is c63000 aluminum bronze, we are the suppliers for the watch industry. however the tudors seems like machined from extureded rods unlike forged. forged is better
@@Timeandtidewatches its all about giving the alloy its final shape and grain size. grain size determines the characteristics of the alloy. the smaller and tighter the grain size better quality and stronger final product. this can be obtained by forging. on the other side its a time and energy consuming process. extrusion are easier to produce and they dont have the fine grain sizes, this makes the alloy more prone to break. we prefer forged bronze and later machined by a good quality cnc. i am sure tudor got a very good cnc but i am not sure about the alloy. i need to see the specs. do they provide you with alloy specs with the watch? Bronze is a living alloy unlike steel, we all love some character on our watches. bronze is the chracter and fits dive watches as we all know all ships propelled with huge bronze propellers :)
@@davidofglenbrook4487 yeah, Rolex fanboys always come up with that line. Very original. Thing is, I can and do, own watches that are pricier than either the Sub or the BB58 bronze. I just prefer the looks of the Seamaster 300M. Even though I have one Rolex (so obviously don't dislike the brand) not everyone drools over the Sub. There are few Rolex I like. I have one, I am looking to get one more (between two different models) and the plan ole Sub isn't one. Neither is a regular explorer. Stay classy...
Noce reviewI did review on the black bay recently on my channel. After watching this video, thinking if I should make Submariner ones as well. What do you think?

You have a point. But Rolex is a bigger culprit pricing their watches way above what it was 5 to 8 years back. A decade ago, a no date pre owned sub BnP all in could be purchased for maybe 5 to 6k USD. Now it’s nearly impossible to get one at that price. You’d have to be Ethan Hunt from Mission Impossible to get one from the AD itself 😂
Shield and rose explanation?…. Who told you that bollocks? 🤣🤣🤣….. let’s forget the fact he called it Tudor, had a love for England and English history, lived in England and first formed Rolex as an English limited company, as well being an Anglophile…. Don’t let your Aussie prejudices over bare your history mate….. petty minded muppet
You compared the OLD Rolex vs the NEW Tudor …which you put your own money into! . Dreadful video for that reason alone. Like comparing an old Rolls Royce with a new (BMW engine) Bentley. You cant. They’re not “sisters”. One is a man the other is a child wanting to be a man.

Thanks for the video 👍 . I’m proud to say Sub 124060 & BB58 bronze are the 2 most prized watches of my collection ⌚️

Love this one. Can’t wait for the next crisp bezel action.
#bezelturnersanonymous
I have the bb58 bronze. Clean it with a toothbrush and toothpaste every other week and it always stay the same bronze color like day one.
Now that you have owned it for a konger time, can you tell me if it leaves marks on your wrist and the wrist cuffs of your shirt?
Why nothing about the quick adjust system?
He mentions at about 6:20
These are the exact two watches that I’m looking to buy. Thank you for doing this review.
Random! Good luck 🤞🏻
Update: luckily enough to pick up a 124060 at my AD (3 month wait with no purchase history!); still thinking about the BB58B though
For the sake of originality, it's the Tudor for me. The sub is just too common these days
Great video!! How do you keep your bronze watch clean?? Cheers
denture cleaning tablets
@@frogautistic Is that the tooth?
Standard of Tudor time runs at -2/+4, its beyond COSC
Yeah - I’ve found Tudor to be as accurate as Rolex, they over deliver to often be regulated within 2s.
Will be interesting if the new metas pieces push it even further
Metas is +0/+5, Omega watches sometime run at +3, +4 second a day, imagine your Tudor runs at -1/+2...I would prefer that
Such a great video!!
Great fun to watch!!
Two fantastic timepieces!
I would pick the Tudor…..
The significance of the shield is very interesting!
Had never heard that before, wanted to share - makes sense.

Great video, my older (2007) sub is very similar to the bronze (lucky me I have both!) and both are a joy to wear and look at
For me the explorer style dial on the Tudor was the selling point. I have a 43mm BBB with a slate gray dial and just adore it. It feels a little cleaner to me.
I have a Sub from new in 1986 and the new bronze Tudor.I love the Tudor but the bronze comes off on my arm if it's sweaty .

Great video 👍 Really like the BB 58 bronze. Always good to see a bit of adventure coming off!
Great explanation on shield protecting the crown. Would prefer to comparison with current Submariner though.

I've just bought one and had it on for 1 day in 29c and my wrist went a little green. It's not one for the hot weather.

Quick question to viewers: Tudor BB58 in all bronze or the Tudor BB58 chrono panda?? I know they are totally different, but I can only choose 1.
As owner of both, panda for sure. The movement, look, complication...etc on different league
@@eahmhelmoa Thank you, Ahmed!

You should do bezel ASMR. :D
Don’t even. I will. But it ain’t always this pleasant! TY - Andrew
Am I the only one who is wondering about the bronze corroding with sweat of the wrist until it develops green gunk?
Nope. I'm wondering about that too. Summer in Aus will be interesting!
What about a the 369 on dial. Big plus imho
Wow that was a lengthy intro.
Agree, I can ramble 😒
Love them both Beautiful watches
Totally agree, they’re both winners in their RRP category - not that the Sub goes for that very often these days 😉

Long gone bro, catch him up by searching OT Podcast
Problem is the bronze...gets shady and loses shine quickly....

@@jimlittle5769 You can put that Seamaster (once you can afford it…) right next to your nifty Invicta collection….
If they took off the HEV wart, kiddish wave dial, and replaced the ugly bracelet, the 300M would be worthy of discussion.
Noce reviewI did review on the black bay recently on my channel. After watching this video, thinking if I should make Submariner ones as well. What do you think?
Sure why not, lots to dig into.
So does that mean that Tudor is more accurate than Rolex for these two particular models?
@Silver Fox
Thanks for your respons.
GJ, Nice Video
Preciate 🙏🏻
The screws on an AP royal oak are functional. You cant compare them to the functionless rivets on a Tudor.
They’re NOT functional.
They’re not even screws, they’re bolts with screwed on nuts holding them on from the back.
@@Timeandtidewatches yes gotcha. Functional
@@DiegoUvence functional
Submariner no date has the best dial layout ever.
Pre-COSC ND even better!
I really rate the chew door also but it makes your wrist green in bronze material, Rolex is also lovely but expensive next to the chew door.
What are these 'chew-doors' you speak of?
Nice watch mate ;)
Tudor needs to be more thank the Black Bay. All we are seeing are variations of the same watch.
Pelagos is a decent plan B?
Yes, you are right.
The Rolex is not available to mere mortals and the Tudor is to a degree. Not really a comparison.
Really? The Tudor is quite rare and only if you happen to have a Tudor boutique around.
Nah not a comparison, it's half the price! But interesting nonetheless.
Sorry, way more than half the price, if you're talking what a Sub you can actually buy costs.

The saddest part for Tudor is that they won't be allowed to make a better/nicer watch than Rolex even if they can.

@@Charles-vv3wh nice watch and very much a true divers watch. Good choice. I went with the Seamaster 300M myself.
Insane how overhyped Tudor is just because it's considered a close relative of Rolex. No doubt it's a great watch but too overhyped now
Uh, it's a pretty fantastic spec for the money regardless of hype.
You have a point. But Rolex is a bigger culprit pricing their watches way above what it was 5 to 8 years back. A decade ago, a no date pre owned sub BnP all in could be purchased for maybe 5 to 6k USD.
