The NEW Tudor SUBMARINER - Black Bay 2024

[BarkandJack]

CORRECTION: Lugs are 21mm wide, not 22mm.

Bought it 3 days after release; the watch has not left my wrist(I could not be more bias). For those who are worried about the watch being too thick or the diameter being too large. It’s actually quite wearable on my 6.75in wrist. With the way Tudor has cut/segmented the case side profile with the bezel and case back, you can’t even tell it has a 13.6mm thickness. As a quick comparison I also own a Pelagos 39, they both wear quite similarly; the black bay sits almost as close to the wrist as the Pelagos, and I have no issues sliding it under a cuff. From a far, the silhouette on the wrist is basically the same. The BB in stainless feels much heftier than the Pelagos’ titanium, and I much prefer the shiny Rhodium indices paired with the aluminum bezel as opposed to the shiny ceramic bezel and applied snowflake indices combo. Those slight differences was why I chose this watch and possibly selling my Pelagos. I know not everyone has the opportunity to own both watches so I’d say if you are on the fence, try them on in person before making the decision. Probably the most important lesson learned from this hobby is picture might speak a thousand words but you’re not wearing the pictures on your wrist…With that being said get what you like, it’s your money.

Tudor and Cartier now are the brands that consistently release something every year that I want to buy. Great job.

This 5-link is absolutely stunning and will be the next addition to my collection

I think it’s perfect. The modern Tudor Sub, finally. All boxes checked - bracelet (5 link), clasp, movement, subdued perfect dial and bezel, snowflake hour marker. They nailed it! I told myself if they ever reissued the perfect Tudor Sub that screamed vintage Tudor Sub I’d buy it, and I’m going to. Several of my watches will now go off to be sold to finance this. I’m heading into retirement and planned to minimalize my collection, and now this watch, along with my Longines Spirit Zulu Time, will make up the core of that collection.

It’s the first reference that I have really liked, probably because I have been wearing the same 16610 for the past 34 years, without a hitch. It too is boringly beautiful

I love this simple colourway. I hope the 58 and 54 gets the same no nonsense treatment. Plus the 54 needs the blue or flourescent magenta look.
Keep it simple ftw 🎉

i've worn a 5513 for over 30 years, and i think this is a perfect reinvention. two line text, monochrome, no date... perfect. i will probably sell my GMT and get one.

[rickfanning]

This is the watch that has caught my eye. But, I’m a sucker for simple black and white dial.

I think the watch is still way too thick for a 3 handed dive watch without a date. I mean Tudor proved that they are able to manufacture a thinner watch with the Blackbay 54. Even the Blackbay 58 GMT is slimmer than this standard Blackbay.

Rolex made an affordable and attainable sub, peoples should be happy

I just picked up my Black Bay monochrome at the weekend there and I cant even express just how good it looks on the jubilee style bracelet. An absolute perfect watch for every occasion. this one will be hard to beat for a long time due to it's value and accessibility.

Amazing watch. Answers every question. Ticks every box. I imagine I will have to wait for 6 months or so, but happy to do that, go into my dealer, and pick it up.

[dsmlive]

By FAR the best looking sports watch for this price point. The 5 link is elegant. Unbelievable value. Buy it!

[steventhomas]

Hopefully Tudor has made a shed load of them because this is going to be their biggest seller ever, this will be for people who can't get the Rolex Sub or don't want to pay triple the price for it, .Its a beautiful watch for sure.

[MohammadH]

they should do this for the 58, it would be more amazing!

[pauldesjardins]

Gorgeous watch. This is now my Bucket Watch!
Thanks Adrian!

[robertmerlo]

Your content is by far the best on here of my watch folks i follow. Always so honest. Keep it up along with the smashing straps!

[fraggle]

Having had a BB and sold it for a BB58, all i can say is that this is nice but the real deal is a BB58 in this colourway. The smaller dial and slimmer case just wear better. Close, but no cigar.
