Im glad she didn’t blurr the name of the guy commenting about her jaw.
💀 I nearly did blur it out. I usually do! But I think, if they’re happy to publicly say it, I guess it’s free game! 😅 but you know, i don’t mind people being curious about my jaw or asking from a place of curiosity why I am talking like this. But there’s just been so many comments coming from a mean place rather than curiosity. It’s just the way people say things. You know?!
Just ignore it, you are alive and kicking and your lovely self, that is the most important thing!
Darren was just asking for a friend, so let’s find out which one 😂
For a girl with a broken jaw, you're still kind of cute; in a Canadian kind of way. Allegedly
Agreed. F that guy
Thank you for the comprehensive comparison of these differing BBS. And, continue to plow forward in your recovery with humor, grace, and bravery. Wishing the best for you from Indiana, U.S.A.!
Solid and most comprehensive look at three Black Bay model lines - seriously, concise and lots of good data points aligned with visual comparisons. Noticed a brighter look/background to some of the zoomed in watch shots, which I thought was sharp, and really thought the use of zooming vice hard zoom shifts added a unique feel to this video.
Awesome video and comparison, Britt! As always, great job. Your videos make me smile😊. Keep going
Woohoo! A Tudor video! Thanks and keep em coming 😘
BAHAHA! WELLLLLL! If you say so. I better keep making more Tudor videos! 😈😜💕
Great comparison video!!! Keep up the great work Brit😊
I love Tudor and their watches. Their quality has kept getting better every year. I’m glad they offer different sized black bays. You can wear them for different occasions.
This is exactly the video I needed!! Good looking out kiddo!!😊
My standard line on the faux rivets: they’re really obvious and blatant in a closeup macro shot, but on the wrist you don’t notice them at all.
YUP!!! This is exactly it!
Everybody talks about faux rivets which sounds bad because of the word "faux" but to me they're just some wee dots that make the bracelet look a bit more interesting. Wouldn't say i love them but they definitely don't make the bracelet worse for me. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
@@sysakPL agreed. I’m surprised Tudor hasn’t released a statement assigning a purpose to them, like bumper guards to protect the polished sides of the links. They do some protecting of the links in that they’ll block a scratch before it hits the link. They’re an early point of contact sparing the link.
My blue BB58 is the ultimate Black Bay for me (since I already own it!) & I’d get a T-Fit clasp for it if they become available. I’d love to see new colors for the BB54 & maybe even a (gasp) date version…
first time viewer. thanks for uploading this awesome tudor vid
So happy I bought my BB58 on the leather. Then added the Forstner 3 link bracelet (no rivets!)😃 and their flexlink which allows 5mm of spring loaded flex. Perfect watch!
I was never Tudor fans. I
watched so many videos about BB58.
I saw the 54 and I love it!!!
Got a long day ahead of studying for final exams but sitting down and watching this with my 54 on wrist and some coffee really boosted my mood this morning! Thanks Britt!
I'm in the same boat also. Britt makes studying for finals go down easier though
Oh YES TO THE 54! 💕💕💕 and you got this!!! Study hard! The finish line is near!
@@mantisshadow8990 😭💕 oh this is just too kind! Study hard! You got this !
@@BrittPearceWatches ahh so cool you replied hahah. Cheers from a fellow Tudor fan!
Sweet vid! I think you’re one of the first to do the trio comparison. Can’t go wrong with any of the three.
Ahhh I was so lucky to get hands on with the burgundy as well!
Such a great review!! :)
That’s the video I was waiting for!! You’re the best!! I love your content(specially about tudors) 😜❤️
Bahahah it was inevitable! This video NEEDED TO HAPPEN! 😂💕
@@BrittPearceWatches and i commented in your last video about this topic, thank you! It’s always a pleasure watching you
Great video, Brittany, thank you 🙂🙂🙂
I was really wondering about the differences between these, so thanks for that!
Great content here, very well done. Thank you for all the help. I think that my next watch is going to be the black bay 58 maroon five link bracelet I absolutely love the look of the five link bracelet along with T clasp .. I love tutor I’m a big fan, and I truly hope that I am able to attain this Watch soon.
Perfect timing on this video, I am considering a Tudor black bay amongst others. Just need to try them on and make a decision. In my mind I see the 58 being the best choice even though I have 7.5 inch wrists, but we shall see if it pans out that way.
great vid britt!
love the vids
This was a nicely shot video
Glad to see you’re recovering nicely ❤️🩹
Oh bless you! Thank you!!! A little better every day! 💕
“It’s your money. It’s your tastes.” Best advice ever. Thanks Britt. You’re awesome!
i'm not even on the market for a tudor but i love your vids, they're nice to wind down too.
Oh bless! Thank you sooo much! I’ve always found my videos to be fantastic material if you’re struggling to fall asleep. 😜
Great video Britt, you editing skills are on point!!!!
Oh Tim! I worked sooo hard on this video! So I’m glad it shows!
Agreed, that into was on point. It was great to see the various models against different color backdrops. Somehow it really gives each watch a chance to shine differently a bit.
Gringa’s skills seem to have improved (not a slight against how they were previously) since she’s been down post accident.
She’s made lemonade from the lemons that life threw at her.
The day they bring out the Burgundy model in a more wearable case (the 58 or 54 cases), they'll have an instant customer out of me!
😊 I was so impressed that you didn’t start to chuckle when you were talking about the thickness 😊
BAHAHA! It took all my will power. 😜
Great video 👍
I've said it before and I'll say it again, the bracelet detail ('faux rivets') is a plus for me. It's unique, and it's an aesthetic feature that works for me within the overall design. If/when I buy a BB58, I want them there.
Your vids are so well done these days. Spielberg, Scorsese and Tarantino could all learn something here.
fantastic stuff
I had a tough time deliberating between the OG and Blue BB58. I ended up getting the BB58 in Navy Blue, and when the BB54 launched, it gave me another reason to get it as well. 🤣Both excellent watches with their own merits. 😃
You are a star, Brittany. Cheers 🍻!
thank you for the comparison of my favourite watch brand.
This is the first of your videos I catch..you just popped up on my feed. I agree with everything you said. I’ve been a watch wh$re for years. Then came the BB58 and made an honest woman out of me lol. So much so that I packed all my watches (about 20 of them ) and shipped them off to my friend Random Rob and he sold them off. I kept about 8 for sentimental reasons, but the BB58 is my daily driver. Not counting Gshocks cause as we all know, Gshocks don’t count as watches as they’re more like toys lol. Now this BB54 has caught my attention. Definitely a Tudor fan girl here so I wouldn’t have an issue with having multiples in my collection. Hopefully, folks do regret purchasing it due to the size and I can pick up for a nice discount in the “pre-owned” market ha!. Great video and great content. New sub.
I owned the original BBB41 ETA version for 8 years. Recently sold, and bought a 58. The fit on the 58 was much more comfortable and looked in proportion to my wrist size (about 7 inches).
What made me keep the original black bay 41 for so long was mainly its "exclusivity" being a short production run for that model. In the end it wasn't justified enough to keep for mainly that reason. Wearability really matters a lot.
I was able to try on the 54 yesterday and wow.
Lighter than the 58 and wears like a dream. I was initially caught off guard with seeing the sheen dial. It definitely has a shimmer to it, which I'm not used to seeing on a BB dial. It gives the watch an elegant look to it in a way that isn't present in the other versions that came before.
Thanks for sharing, damn, I’m going to have to visit an AD and try the 54.
I’m 100 percent on getting the 58. (Kind of holding out to see if the new clasp moved over to it soon). But hearing about the dial has me thinking the 54 would be a used pick up a few years down the line. (I like my watches with a bit of wear lol).
Also, man that burgundy is just sooooo tasty with its pop of color.
You know! This is all perfectly said! Thank you so much for tjis comment! You’re so right about the BB58 size, proportions and general wearability. I think it’s those Goldilocks specifications so many people are looking for! The BB54 wears surprisingly well for how the specs sound!
@jamesb3557
Love the look of the burgundy bezel. Hopefully, we will see a 58 version release at some point.
Great channel, thank you!
Hi Britney, I have the BB58 and perfect strap fitment was a real pain for me due to NO half links. Big thanks to Uncle Seiko who saved the day with a matching half link, now providing a perfect fit. Hope that any new clasp/bracelet Tudor produces can be retro fitted to the current BB58. Please do not let those insensitive morons get to you with their purile comments. You are loved and respected for what you do and how you've come through this.
Hey! Im a sensative peurile commentator........
Now THIS IS GREAT TO KNOW!!! Seiko half link fits! 😱😱😱 epic problem solving by you! 😂👏🏻
And bless! You know! I might have been feeling too sensitive about that one! 😂💕 I don’t know! If I mention my jaw too much I get comments saying “I come here for watches can you please stop talking about your jaw every video” 😅 and if I don’t say it, new people don’t know!!! 😂🤦🏻♀️
@@BrittPearceWatches it’s not a Seiko half link, “Uncle Seiko” is a aftermarket company that specializes in better quality Seiko bracelets as well as Omega aftermarket bracelets and they’ve dabbled into the Tudor half links. They tend to have stock off and on though (I’d imagine they are quite popular).
Hopefully that didn’t come out poorly (or that I didn’t assume wrongly that you didn’t know of Uncle Seiko) I just didn’t want you to possibly speak to Seiko links fitting, only to find that it’s not actually Seiko links but a specialty made aftermarket item.
Good to see someone finally do a video on the Tudor Black Bay.
😂
You’re welcome.
💀😂 this mad me audibly chuckle. HAHHAA! BE PATIENT WITH MEEEEE!
@@BrittPearceWatches Hope I didn't hurt your jaw making you smile. I'll watch just about anything you make. Just not this. :-) I am so gd sick of seeing this watch.
Really like the new motion graphics!
Great video, very helpful ...
Nice video ---- Pope Tier Rules !!! --- I am BINGE WATCHING all your videos this weekend (AND ALL THE ADDS) !!!!!
I pick up a bb54 next week, thank you so much for the review.
Ahhh no WAY! Big congrats! That is so exciting! Hope you love it!
I cannot agree more about trying watches on in person. I had this idea in my head about how a whole list of watches would fit based on all their specs. I went in and tried them on and my list was blown out of the water. Watches I expected to like I didn't and ones I did not expect to like so much blew me away. Of the ones in the video, I'd go with the original Black Bay diver in 41mm. I do really like how much they've slimmed down the new 41mm version, so that might work. I really didn't like 2nd gen. Even the Black Bay GMT wore better than that thanks to some beveling on the case sides of the GMT.
The BB58 can be found used for really cheap since the new releases this year. Between $2,500-$3,000 depending on strap or bracelet. I’d go for the strap version and try to source a Tudor Ranger bracelet to get T-Fit all for less than a BB54.
Great comparison 👍
Solid comparison!
I think the BB GMT Diet Pepsi is the one for me but if picking one that didn’t have the GMT movement, think I’d go 58 gilt. I have a wrist that seems to move between 6.75 and 7 inches.
The watch world is usually for men, but honestly you’re my favorite watch geek here. Your reviews are very informative, detail-oriented, and less talking about yourself. Just so you know, Britt!
Anyways, I tried on the Black Bay 39 mm with diamond dial last night in my local newly opened Tudor boutique and Jesus Christ I want that watch so bad! Do you or anyone here know if Tudor already raised their prices this year?
Great video as always! I prefer the Rose logo over the Shield. Cheers.
Yay finally!!!
I thought the BB58 was 39mm so discounted it....I have a 7 3/4 inch wrist so when the new watches came out in March and they show cased the 41 in Burgundy and Jubilee??? wow wow wow that is the one for me.....can't wait for this to be come available...loving your content
That BB 54 looks amazing!
Why hasn't RUclips invented a "double-like" or "love" button? Really enjoyed this video 😊 Thaanks, Brit!
saw the burgandy on a burgandy nato and it looked great. As a Tudor fan boy I cant choose because i like them all. The good news is Tudor has something for everyone, try then buy.
Great video I love tudors I have the burgandy but 2022 I would love the new one on a not so jubilee bracelet 😂
I also have the s&g chrono lovely watch also but a bit blingy for everyday use.
Keep up the good work.
You know! Our AD in Bristol has a massive selection of chrono s for SALE! 😱 no wait or anything! But they are so dang good looking!
I really do like the red bezel. I would buy that in a heart beat if there was a ceramic option. Thanks for the vid!!
Thanks Brit. I have ordered à bb54 despite my wrist of 7.1 inches
Subscribed!
Nice analysis and comparison. I’ve never owned a Tudor and have been trying to find my entry point into the brand… I’ve always been a Rolex wearer. I have a 7” wrist and have tried both the BB58 and BB54 and find both too small based on my personal preferences. While I like the 41mm version the case is way too tall for the diameter. To me the sweet spot is the original 79220, particularly the black dial… yes, I know, it’s an eta movement, though the proportions between diameter and thickness, the rose logo, no faux rivets, and the scarcity of this reference is the reason why this is the one to add to my collection. And by the way your disco background and dance for five seconds was a great “interruption” to the video lol
Liked and subscribed! I tried and liked the original Tudor BB burgundy. I have a 7” wrist, anything under 39-40mm looks small on it…
i didnt realize the original ETA black bay 41 was so much slimmer than the in house one! definitely the one to get of the 41's
YES!!!! This is something I wish I highlighted!!!!
My favorite BB is the BB chrono black dial
Great video. Liked the sneaky B&J strap placement. :-) And the IBWC references. One big happy family of watch nerds.
The burgundy NATO??
@@watchpapi around 2:12 time stamp.
Ah, the grey one! Yeah, big fans of Adrian’s straps here at Gringa HQ. The burgundy one on the watch is from Bulang & Sons, also highly recommended, a bit thicker than B&J straps but really nice feel.
@@watchpapi big fan here too! I’ve got a few including a Gulf coloured one for my racing moods.
@@BassStevie nice 👌🏽
I own the 41 and it's PERRRFECT
My ideal blackbay personally (as a 6.5” wrist) would be OG BB watch face (RIP the rose), with the bezel of the 58, and the bracelet/case size of the 54.
Great video. I am waiting on the BB54. I have had the 58 as well as the 41 Smiley face. Do you have any issues with the t-fit clasp? I currently have the Pelagos 39 and BB Pro. Even with the t-fit, I still had to get aftermarket 1/2 link for both.
Love the 54
Uncle Seiko makes half links for the black bays, and Steel Reef makes easy links for them. if you need more size adjustment!
Thank you for this video Britt! Sorry if others mentioned it, but the video’s spec table lists the 54 as thickness of 11.6mm. But you said it was 11mm. Also, I live in NYC, and still no 54 in stores. Any idea why the delay?
The 54 is stunning
My BB SS. First showcased on 2017 Basil World now discontinued. That's the best BB at least for me.
Does the new Burgundy model with the in-house movement also include the rose logo on the dial and crown?
Hi Britt - I know you are a big Chopard Alpine Eagle fan and curious about your thoughts on the new release of the summit collection !
I'd love the gilt bezel of BB58 and 5-link bracelet of BB on BB54.
THAT'D BE MY PICK ❤
The Black Bay 54 may be my first Tudor.
I will miss mush mouth once jaw restraints are removed. As a BB58 black owner, I think it’s so perfect in size, design, and the added touches (gilt bezel, red triangle( Rolex Big Crown) snow flake second, coin edge bezel matches crown) all these little touches make it a very special watch.
I drooled on my shirt a bit seeing the new BB Burgundy with the new Metas certified movement. Is that ok? 😅
I don’t think there’s any wrong answer on the BB Divers, they all pull vintage aesthetics from old Rolex and Tudor watches of the past. Each has their own markers that make them unique. The black bezel BB58 being the only with a red triangle @12, except the 41mm black bezel, and the gold numbers on the bezel. The 54 having the slightly different bezel grips. Etc. If you want a dive watch that doesn’t pull from the past go for Omega SMP 300m Diver, I have and love both equally even if Brit spaced the BB58 out of my 7 1/3 inch wrist size 😂 great video Brit!
This is so perfectly said! That’s exactly it! There’s no wrong answers! Just different, slight tweaks for different folks! 💕
Thank you for a lovely video.
I personally would go with the ETA version if someone has it or can purchase it. Not because I am a fan of Eta (Swatch group) but because of service options.
If you buy a vintage version / used one you can swap the movement to Eta, SW Sellita or even PT5000.
If you are buying one of the new ones, especially a used after the warranty is over... The movement is gonna cost quite a bit of money no?
Love your reviews Brittany. Re the faux rivets on Tudors, I actually love’m. If they didn’t have them they’d look too Rolex like.
Great video as always B.
This gringa Sunday was epic 🎉
Personally I will choose the BB54 although my grail Tudor is the Ranger 😅.
Hope you have a fantastic Sunday 🎉
Oh MAN! I need to get hands on with a ranger!!! They are so dang attractive and I have yet to have one on gringa tube!
Happy Sunday F! 💕💕🎉
Hi Brit, i have a small wrist. To me, it Will be perfect if Tudor blend the three together. Small diameter, but with red Bezel, and blue or black dial
Shout out for wearing a Seattle Mariners ball cap in the thumb nail
Great vid and review Britt. I have the second gen BB Burgandy on distressed oem leather, and recently purchased the heritage guilted BB 58. I have a 7.25 - 7.5” wrist, and they both look and wear great. I love them both. And I don’t think I would get the T-fir for them, unless they offer the the small clasp option.
Would love to see the watch on the leather.
@@jamesb3557 ruclips.net/video/SjlY7L5HrYs/видео.html
Brad at Brent Miller actually got it wrong, it’s a distressed black leather strap, but some of the distressing can make it appear brown. Looks ans wears great. And this is the last gen 41 Burgandy sans smiley face, COSC Cert Chronometer, in-house movement, which I think the movement on the new ine is the same, just METAS certified, signified by the - U on the end, if I remember correctly.
Renitor watch case is awesome
I'm number 4 on the list for my local dealer for the new BB41 Jubilee-est with T-Fit clasp. Can't wait to get get it!
Ahhh nooo way!!! May the list move fast! That is too exciting!
@@BrittPearceWatches He called yesterday and offered me the older model, I passed. Waiting the one I want.
@@TheBigWrist I’ll never understand the idea of waiting a few days to offer an older model to someone on the list. They likely already had that model, why not offer it before placing you on a list lol. Anyways can’t wait to hear how it goes!
@@jamesb3557 I was in the shop a few days prior to the call and they did not have a older red bezel on display. I was there for a small watch meetup and the shop knew I was serious buyer waiting for the newer version. They one who called me was just a junior sales guy, not the manager who I am friends with. I don't think there was any shenanigan's going on, just an an attempt to sell me a watch that is very close to what I want.
@@TheBigWrist thanks I didn’t mean to sound disparaging to the AD, sounds like they really tried. Thanks for sharing 🙏
Up to 60k fans 🎉❤❤❤
BB41 looks perfectly fine on your wrist! You could probably wear a Deep Sea and it will still look great.
See, women can wear it big or small. The problem with a small men’s wrist like mine is that watches like BB54 or DJ36 make them look like a women’s. Ironically they accentuate my small wrist. So I must avoid anything below 39-40mm.
I personally love the BB54 on rubber!
Thanks for the chart, so many presenters make it so hard to compare when they rattle off statistics one after the other…
I have yet to try on the 54. One day soon.
Ahh! Hopefully not long! 💕💕💕
Britt, Can you please find out if the "jubilee" bracelet on the new burgundy will fit the original smiley face Tudor 41mm?
I own both 58 colors and i love m
Love this frog vocal fry trend
The Tudor bb58 is my grail watch but then again I prefer dive watches with their rotating bezel because the clicking sound of the bezel helps me with my anxiety which is weird but yeah
I love the new 54 tried it on in Goldsmith Bristol and love it and that guy that made the comment on your talking (what a dick) I’m so pleased to see you healing up and bringing us great videos
I’m still waiting on my AD to receive the newer Black Bays *insert Tyrone Biggums gif* , Britt great comparison video…I’m going to need lessons on how you do your edits 😅
