Tudor BB58 41mm Monochrome.

So guys, I have been wearing my BB58 Monochrome pretty much every day for the last 2 weeks. I absolutely love this watch, I mean I really love it.

I can’t explain why? I mean it’s the watch industry equivalent of the Emperor’s New Clothes. Tudor shout out “Hey look what we’ve done?” The answer is damn all other than removing the colour! Still, it’s f3ckin cool all the same.

Anyway I digress. The point I want to make is that for an aging old duffer like me, riddled with arthritis @ Carpal tunnel syndrome, this is one heavy lump of cool to carry around all day! 149 grams heavy. In a desperate move, I’ve taken the step of forgoing cool for Hush Puppies comfort. I’m changing the appearance of the BB58, like a Grandpa changes his cardigan. The jubilee style bracelet has been sent to the drawer of doom where a Zelos HH3 on the bracelet will keep it company.

New strap alert!

Wow, the watch ain’t monochrome, it’s a black hole now 😱It totally changes the look. No longer cool, just f3ckin bad @ss. So should you be walking down the street & feel yourself being pulled uncontrollably towards a huge dark mass, it’ll be me walking towards you wearing my cardigan & Hush Puppies 😛😎

A: that’s a beautiful watch, I think.

B: you’ve knocked it out of the park with that strap!

Thank you. I’m still unconvinced by the black, maybe just too much black.

I got a grey leather for a bit of contrast but I am even less convinced with it.

Have think about these straps? Tuns Leather online about $45.00 ea. I have these straps on butterfly deployants and I think they rule. They make a huge variety of straps.😃

Thank you 😀

I sure hope when they finally change up the blue, they give it a blue dial also.

That strap is killer and everyone’s stories today are making me misty.

I have the same brand of strap (Tuns) on my Cartier Tank. Love it!

You've got me going now......😢😜

While I love it on the bracelet, you absolutely nailed it with the strap change 👊🏻

·

FYI, I think this is not a BB58, just a Black Bay 👊 beautiful watch! Wear it in good health

·

What @sunmntn_9528 said, this is a BB41, not a BB58. But gorgeous all the same. Congrats!

That leather strap goes really nice with it , maybe I’ll have to go the same route for some occasions 🤔
