Yes, this one is mine.
I’ve had it since it was released but honestly it doesn’t get worn much.
I keep meaning to buy the fabric strap for it which I think will give it a bit of a new life.
I just wore for the first time since summer 2024 a few weeks ago. Crazy. I know.
I went back to Tudor today. I am starting to warm up to this.
I have ruled out the gilt dial because of the faux patina. ...
I have mixed feelings about the BB54
because it doesn’t look nice on my wrist. But on paper and on other wrists it’s an appealing watch. Best, Emmanuel
I know it’s a larger watch, but have you tried the BB58 blue?
Or seen them side by side?
Well if I can sway you…
Only from the pictures, I’m not totally sure about the blue on the new watch. It seems very shiny, very retro Rolex blue. The BB58 blue is less severe. Just 2 cents from the peanut gallery ! 😂 ...
Spot on, Jay. The new blue is formally called sapphire blue and it has a retro vibe.
One reviewer said the rubber strap helps to balance out the intensity of the sapphire blue and I think that is an interesting observation which I will explore in person. Is that BB 58 yours?
Yes, this one is mine.

I completely agree.
The BB58 BLUE is one of many “slow burn” watches I admire more and more. I recently seen one on a blue Tudor NATO strap that not only looked amazing but would fit more snug than the bracelet would.
