Should You Really Buy It? Comparing The Tudor Black Bay Pro To My Rolex & Tudor Watches!

The new Tudor Black Bay Pro had many questioning its size and overall proportions. In my opinion as you see in the video, where I compare the watch with my Tudor and Rolex watches, it's fine. Let me know what you think about it!

Which Tudor has been your favorite so far and would you buy the Black Bay Pro?

[JohannesFranckens]

For me the thickness is fine, however the fact that some people won’t buy the piece because of that fact makes it even more special. I’ve only seen it once on someone else’s wrist in Austria. And for that, I love it even more. It’s an instant classic.

I got this model when it first came out. It's borderline on the heavy side but the thickness is easy to get used to. A good value for a true GMT piece.

I sold my bb gmt and bought this watch. It fits so much better because the lug to lug is smaller and fits better on my 6.75 inch wrist. I am loving it!

I was offered one on released day by my AD and purchased it. Its a great watch and sits in my modern tudor collection. I have 7 and I can say every one I have are different and has its own characteristics. I don't have a problem with the thickness as I like some weight in my watches. At the price point, it's a great addition to any collection.

Great review 👍. Was thinking about buying this watch. Best review of the black bay Pro I have seen. Puts everything in prospective. Thanks you

It’s a super nice watch, I tried it but my 6.2 inches wrist said no, it’s quite heavy for my wrist and I ended buying a Bvlgari aluminum GMT. If you have a 6.5 > inch wrist, it will sit super good (if you like some weight on your watches).

Go and try the watch! You’ll love it!

I like this watch a lot, daily vs the Pelagos 39 for me. The ‘poor man’s Rolex’ comment is hilarious, Hans created this brand so everyone could enjoy his watches, so that is exactly what they were designed to be…everyman’s timepieces. Everyone I know who has a Tudor also has Rolex and others, Tudor is just such a cool and wearable choice these days. The thickness here is not a flaw, it is a design choice. 2mm is the raised crystal, so it wears more like a 12.6mm watch…same as a GMT by big bro…..try one and you’ll buy one…be daring 😂 you can wear this almost everywhere, no way I’d rock my Pepsi in places where this goes unnoticed except by the cognoscenti…

BB Pro owner for 2 months now. The watch is a bit thicker but not a problem on my wrist at 19cm and in size of many chronos. It is heavier but is a sports watch. Clasp is phenomenal, also the accuracy within 1 sec per day and bright lume. Hard to find better watch at app. 4k range and wears very nicely. If you have smaller wrist below 16/17cm or don't like heavy watches give it a try before buying/not buying, don't assume based on numbers. "Rivets" were not my fav design thing but don't notice them anymore and from all BB collection suit this model most. Overall great watch, would definitely reccomend. BTW great review as always👍

I was thinking of buying this watch for quite a long time, finally pulled a trigger last month as I saw it in stock in my town. Rather a quick decision, run in and buy, but since then I had zero regrets. I have never had a watch that wears so comfortably and look so in place no matter where I go or what I do.
This, and something dressier, like a Santos or LUC, and you're done with a 2-watch collection.

I have one with the 3 bracelets and it’s a phenomenal watch

[pascals.]

It is just an amazing timepiece. I bought one and and I have no regrets. BRAVO Tudor

[walaarostom]

I have just bought it from Jomashop and I love it. It wears perfectly and it is not thick at all. It looks stunning! Thank you for the review.

I also have the RLX Pepsi and the Explorer II like you, but still got the BB Pro, its really a great kind of vintage looking piece, i don't mind the thickness as well! I am even thinking about selling my 226570 and just keep this one and the Pepsi...

[TL-phwg]

I brought one, loving it. Well proportioned and balance and doesn’t look thick at all.

I feel I have to "speak" up here. Chronographs & GMT don't really serve that much of a purpose anymore and we all know, if we're honest about it, it's just a way for brands to pitch us something "new" but very old/outdated. without to much effort on their behalf. Unless you're you're a pilot (and then only maybe) you don't need this at all. It's right there in your phone. A basic threehander with a date is still very convenient but in order to create something reasonably fresh with such a product brands need to put in a lot of work so adding a GMT hand or "timekeeping" and charging an extra 1K$ is a lot easier even though 95% of the consumers will have no real use for it at all.

39mm depending on the lug to lug is a sweet spot in watch size for a lot of people and I believe we are going to see more watchmakers using this size.

Have the Black Bay Pro. Love it. it wears smaller than you think and the thickness thing is not an issue.

[davidrogers]

Pulled the trigger lovely watch very happy with it

[ModernTacticalShooting]

Well I just got one 3 weeks ago...luv it!
