Back In Fifty Eight...
All the style of vintage without the daily guilt trip and just consider the specification. Tudor manufacture, COSC certified movement with a 70 hour power reserve. Variable inertia balance and includes a non- magnetic silicone balance spring. What’s not t...
My findings:
1. There are no half links available. 2. There are only 3 sets of holes for micro-adjustments on the clasp. Other than these minor ‘discrepancies’, I love mine: ...
It’s possible to have extra micro holes made ....
A good AD should help you to get the correct fit.
Agree on the clasp holes...
But we must admit that that keeps it shorter, of classic shape and size!
It is a love / hate watch, no in between.
It does grow on you, the longer you have it.
That, I can believe ....
I’ve just been offered the one by my AD 🤔.... decisions, decisions
You need to try it on your wrist, then think about it for a couple days. Go back try again to see if you like it more.
I decided on my second visit to the AD. The BB58 is a no brainer, you fall in love with it instantly.
They are still somewhat hard to get, I’ve only crossed two sitting at ADs since released and I think that’s two more than most people.
Plus, didn’t we have 30-40 people that were committed to the “Purists 58”? I wish that one had managed to come together. Maybe some of us are still holding out for this forum edition!
Here's mine, awhile ago. 😊
Love it, so glad to nail one in my collection. Definitely a winner. Cheers Capt Scarlet. 🍻 Geross ...
Yes. In Golden Eye. His was silver and 4 cylinder. 1.8 lt. Engine.
Mine is black and has a 6 cylinder. 2.0 lt. Engine displacement. Geross 😎
I will join in saying what a great piece!
From when I first got it last Feb. BW, Chi Kai ...
Agree 💯
Its just a very good and beautiful watch . Overall i am not a big brand kinda guy but this one i just had to add to my collection. ...
Agreed, plenty to love about the Fifty Eight
Good travel companion for me. Rain or shine, it brings a smile to my face: ...
I do also love the original BB.
But the 58 is spot on apart from the adjustment in the clasp which is a little annoying. My BB’s sit among my watches in my collection and hold their own and certainly get reached for before others which some call grails so I rest my case. Enjoy your BB58...
It certainly covers most situations and ..
Is much admired beyond its point in the market.
