Tudor Blackbay 58 Update Discussions have been ongoing with Tudor UK. There has been a lot of information required which I have received from WPS and passed on. Some specific concerns were raised around “flipping” and I have given re-assurances around thi...  

Please remind me what changes were being discussed by purists and thank you for reaching out to Tudor.

But purple dial....I can say for sure, no.

Various asks to change the dial, hands and bezel — shapes, colors, printing, & style. Also there were guys who really wanted a near copy of the original Tudor 7924 from 60 years ago. I think most of us knew that it was all daydream stuff and we were shoot... 

No message body ...  

The beauty is in the little details.

Anyway I’m in I placed an order to my AD one week ago for a regular version.

We look forward to the final decision & flipping cannot be deterred unless we engraved initials or name of the owners at the back ....

However their will always be the case of flipping or sale as some member would be needing the funds or after some time need to sell to fund for their grail piece .. so far no successful plot exists of deterrence however at allocation level a caution can h... 

Thanks for keeping the hope alive and continuing to talk to Tudor!!! I’m all in. On flipping: we can all sign a blood oath, no flipping the watch the first 12-18 months, under penalty of death. What? Too severe...😳

.

And please do not suggest death by castration!!

But i dont want you to go begging !!! Tudor should be honored they are `chosen` by Purists !!!

with maybe a Rose and some of the old language on the dial? I like what I see in this photo and the one you posted in response to someone (Rotor...). Is the price near what a regular Black Bay costs? With all of that answered I would be in.

Wow ... exciting to see that this is moving forward. As said in the initial thread, count me in !!! ...  

Thanks for the update. For me, after the no insert change - no hands change, I would feel glad with the gilt semi circula “smiley” text and small rose logo on the dial (classic looks). Cheers! René

I suppose pencil hands from Nico’s inputs would be out of the question. But a Rose and the smiley at the bottom as Rene said and I’m in. Thanks for the update, Imran. Best, Echi

The watch is charming! Even more if those two little changes materialize, to my eyes at least 😍 Let’s hope. René

..

(Credit: Bulang & Sons) To me, it has it all! Almost 😆 Best. René ...  

By the way, I didn’t have the chance to congratulate my French friends with regards to winning the World Cup. Let’s celebrate the rest of the month! Best. René

And how the thickness is just right on the second to the last pic (and works really well with the thickness of the bracelet). Now a rose and a smiley and it is almost perfect. The size of the indices and the hands gives it a lot of presence on a smaller s... 

I’m also crossing fingers 😉 Let’s hope. René

It would be odd if indices were changed from gilt ring to silver colored ring, yet hands and bezel numbers STILL be gilted. I did not think Rolex nee Tudor would allow the snowflake hour hand to be changed, but I was hoping hour hand and indices might be ... 

would compromise its 2019 update. I saw a video with Tudor chief designer who, when asked what his favorite BlackBay design was, responded with an answer that implied his favorite design was for next year's BaselWorld. Food for thought.

I'm still committed, as I was from the beginning.

I have committed immediately when this was brought up many months ago.

Good to hear more details.

I feel another incoming in the future 😁 The Tudor collection is getting bigger 😁

...would like to see a rose on the dial. Much appreciated and definitely still committed to this 'purists' me in! best

l’m Really looking forwards to this!

I hope we will decide with steel bracelet . Change dial with colored tudor rose . On the back case the web address and purist logo . Box with imprinted purist logo . I hope for a different reference like the tudor harrods. It would be nice to have a tudor... 

And I'm definitely in!

Sounds like a real possibility.

Red graphics , tudor rose , cream lume... Vintage style

Thanks for the update! I am have been following this forum for awhile but new to posting. So any changes to the crown or crown stem allowed? A big crown would be incredible (Without the infamous elongated crown stem).

hi Miranda, As mentioned in one of the other threads on this, I would love to be a part of this. I hope this venture will become reality. Thank you for your efforts. Claus

I am very committed. I have never flipped a watch!

After seeing (and missing out) on the Zenith Purist LE, I told myself that I'd try my best for the next one and this BB58 would be perfect as I'm a total sucker for divers. Plus this would be a great little brother for my BBB ETA version. Just like the nu... 

Count me in !

Last update we got I remember was that it was supposed to be a London pickup? If they can route it to a Manila Boutique, I’m in. Best, Echi

And that's solid. I don't intend to flip the watch. Pick up in London is not an issue. I want a BB58 in any case, so would probably end up buying one even if this project doesn't happen. But I really hope it does, and that I am lucky enough to make the li... 

would you like with glossy dial ? i'd like it with the end links , like black bay one
