First time I watch one of your videos, you have the most critical review of this watch while also appreciating it, thank you very much. Very good insight
Great review, fair and accurate, detailed and objective. You go through painstaking detail to show everything about the watch, while others may just skim over and rehash the same rhetoric. You are one of the most trustworthy reviewers on youtube. Tudor's quality control still have some way to go. They make beautiful watches with classic detail, but it can be more refined given the price they demand.
That is a darn nice looking piece, I really enjoy my new to me late 90’s vintage 79280 with the emerald green sunburst dial on stainless bezel. I absolutely love it. Tudor is in my opinion doing really good things, the new 925 58 is on my radar as well.
The screw down pushers don’t bother me. I keep them unscrewed all the time and if I am going in the pool to do my laps I simply start timing, screw them down, set my goggles and start swimming when the totalizer hits one minute. No big deal to me
Ive only ever come across one of these in the UK . It was exhibition only watch . It looks amazing and has to be seen in person to fully appreciate this watch . Hope to buy one very soon
I've come across your reviews before, and the second I heard your voice in this video, I instantly subscribed. You make fantastic videos! I want this watch so bad, 2021 goal.
I just love your script. It’s well-written, interesting and easy to understand. I agree with you about the size. It’s large but sits comfortably on my 6.5 inch wrist. Visually, this polar dial makes the watch look bigger than my BB41 black. I don’t see any wobble on the chronograph’s seconds hand on my watch, though. BTW, the bracelet is 22mm not 21mm as mentioned in the video.
Got the panda today, super good! Amazing time piece add to your collection. I wear Daytona everyday, it’s just slightly bigger. Happy with the overall quality
I just bought this yesterday, but with the leather strap. They didn't have the steel bracelet. It's a really nice watch, it was somewhat an impulse purchase. It is a really nice watch, has huge presence on the wrist and does look classy I think. I'll give a while on the wrist before I make my mind up on it.
@@GillesSimonify My AD didn't have it in stock but said I could order it if I wanted. I'm starting to like it on the leather strap. All my other watches are steel so it's refreshing to have something different. Are you thinking about buying it?
@@EyeInTheSkypaulmcmenamin I've been thinking about buying the first version with steel bezel 2/3 years ago. I've got a lot of watches in my scope. I just need to try it before, though
@@EyeInTheSkypaulmcmenaminI own it on steel bracelet. However, still thinking 🤔 to buy the Tudor black leather strap as it gives better contrast with the opaline dial.
The lug to lug is less than an Omega SMP 300 and will fit most wrists. Thickness is on par or less than IWC chrono so I think they’ve done a good job here for the price. Good to see on a smaller wrist like yours. Great review as always
Did you notice the second hand of the chronograph was shaking? After passed 30 seconds, it began shaking....my friend tried 3 watches in his AD shore,and 3 had the same issue, it's a problem of the movement...
Hi i am interested to get this watch but when i tried on in the boutique i noticed that the chronograph movement vibrated and the movement is not as smooth as my other chronograph running on valjoux 7750 movement. Anybody here had the watch and got the same issue here?
Great photography as usual Hafiz. I don’t think it’s fair to criticise having to screw the chrono pushers in/out. Think of it like this - leave them screwed out and it has the same water resistance as a most inc. Speedmaster. Leave them screwed in and it has 200m water resistance. Your choice. With others, there is no choice! Regards
Hi Hafiz, did you notice the jump of the chronograph second hand, sometimes it jumps to strong and sometimes it is smooth, I have heard that its a common thing on the Breitling 01 chronograph, but it is something I believe has to be corrected, if you consider that you are buying a premium brand.
Completely agree with Gilles Simone’s comment. Your reviews always complete and informative and your camera work magnificent! Anytime I’m in the marker for a new watch, i check your video library to see if you have reviewed it.
As always, your camera shots and attention to detail is excellent! You've handled a few Tudors now. I am curious if you think the quality is improving on Tudor releases? Namely, less scuffs and scratches on hands, nicer looking dials, etc.
Some imperfections notwithstanding, I think Tudor Black Bay Chrono Panda Dial is a strong proposition and very attractive watch ! Your video certainly made it so !
Excellent camera work and thanks for sharing. As far as height is concerned, how would you compare it to a Submariner ceramic or Black Bay 58? Thank you!
I would go with the Breitling Premier with the B01. 100 meters water resistant. Same movement. Don’t have to unscrew the pushers, to time something. No pretensions of being a diver.
Excellent, unbiased review as usual and presented professionally. I actually like this watch and was considering buying it, however because of the current state of the watch market I didn’t feel it was worth the $5700-$7200 price tag that it currently commands. The snowflake hands are always a concern for me, but I think they work in this configuration. I feel that the size for me would be fine. I ended up buying a Hamilton(first one) Intra-matic panda chrono in the 40mm version and it too wears bigger than I thought. I got a good price and my only gripe is there wasn’t a bracelet option. Other than that, I like it. Quality was better than I expected and it does look sharp. Keep up the good work.
Dear Mr. Hafiz Hello , nice review and perfect videograghy, I decided to purchase watch but I don't know which one is better and best look, I like 2 brands 1- IWC pilot chronograph ( IW388102) 41mm and 2- Tudor black bay chronograph S&G, you think which one the best and better quality???? Thank you so much.
1:08 Big watch for the time ? Automatic chronographs of Movado and Favre-Leuba were 40 mm and had a big cushion case. #Horology #chronoscope #chronograph
Good review.... I picked up the Panda version and observed the exact short comings as you . The legibility of the handset without black accents is annoying and the screw down pushers although they resemble Rolexes Daytona aren't practical for timing anything without preparation. I liked and subscribed. : )
The perk would be washing the car, bathing the kids, swimming, washing the dishes, etc, without fear of damage. I'm looking at the Omega Speedmaster Racing, and it being more delicate in this regard, makes the Tudor VERY appealing to me.
Amazing footage and review format.. instant subscribe. We seem to have the same wrist size, so that's great for me to see as a reference. Does it wear similar to a 116710 GMT?
Could you tell me some in this price range that you have ceramic beveling? I'm looking at the clock and I'm interested in what you're talking about, greetings

Disappointing it’s not ceramic.
Happy it's not ceramic.
If you considering buying something relating watches, for sure your channel and presentation is MANDATORY.
I want this dude to explain literally everything to me. His voice is as smooth as silk being pulled across ceramic.
How do you not have 500k subscribers? Best watch reviewer on RUclips!
I know this is an older release, but this is such a great looking watch, that I keep coming back to it. The kind of watch you keep forever.
First time I watch one of your videos, you have the most critical review of this watch while also appreciating it, thank you very much. Very good insight
Hafiz J ‘Eagle Eyes’ Mehmood doesn’t miss out on any detail! Great Video, well observed.

That's a great detailed and balanced review Hafiz of the exact watch I've been fortunate to pick up last week. Thank you.
The only one who wears witches on the right place! And also love that life shots where you can see how the watch is looking. 👍
You deserve much more Hafiz… with you always..

I wear Daytona everyday, it’s just slightly bigger.
Happy with the overall quality
Nice to see a RUclips channel that objectively looks at watches.
10:13 You can actually see the second hand shiver as it moves? Probably because of the hand insert being lose.
I was about to post that, very strange - and a little disappointing
I just bought this yesterday, but with the leather strap. They didn't have the steel bracelet. It's a really nice watch, it was somewhat an impulse purchase. It is a really nice watch, has huge presence on the wrist and does look classy I think. I'll give a while on the wrist before I make my mind up on it.
Can you buy the steel bracelet separately at the AD ?
@@GillesSimonify My AD didn't have it in stock but said I could order it if I wanted. I'm starting to like it on the leather strap. All my other watches are steel so it's refreshing to have something different. Are you thinking about buying it?

So I was 90% getting it, after the video I'm 100% getting it. You have that effect on me. Keep up the great work.
Great Video.
Tudor Stole the Show this year The both Panda dails going to be iconic look awesome am still deciding which one to buy.
You should be a voice for e-books, i live these videos!
Another great video. No surprise at all, the growth of this channel. Consistently good content.
this statement watch has a 2 year wait list in the USA
Thanks hafiz! The best Tudor Black Bay Chrono Panda review till yet.
Your video really makes the black bay chrono breathtaking
The lug to lug is less than an Omega SMP 300 and will fit most wrists. Thickness is on par or less than IWC chrono so I think they’ve done a good job here for the price. Good to see on a smaller wrist like yours. Great review as always
… and the movement inside is Breitling’s amazing B01.

Just managed to get hold of one. Very lucky. It's a handsome, rugged, slick beast. My vacheron overseas hasn't had a look in since I got it.
Keen eye caught the defect other youtubers miss. Kudos Hafiz!
Best watch reviewer hands down. But one mistake - its not a ceramic bezel. Still - a great video!
Water and Land, people that care will screw down and screw up as they surf or drive. Love it.
Great photography as usual Hafiz.
I don’t think it’s fair to criticise having to screw the chrono pushers in/out.
Think of it like this - leave them screwed out and it has the same water resistance as a most inc. Speedmaster.
Leave them screwed in and it has 200m water resistance. Your choice.
With others, there is no choice!

Best video on this watch so far! Keep up the good work 👍
Do we know what the bracelet tapers down too at the clasp ?
Hi Hafiz, did you notice the jump of the chronograph second hand, sometimes it jumps to strong and sometimes it is smooth, I have heard that its a common thing on the Breitling 01 chronograph, but it is something I believe has to be corrected, if you consider that you are buying a premium brand.
Really great channel and so unique! Stylish in its presentation, and pertinent in its content. Keep up the great work!

HJM - another professional exam . thank you. good job ~ JDS/CT
does it feel top heavy with the thickness?
As always, your camera shots and attention to detail is excellent!
You've handled a few Tudors now. I am curious if you think the quality is improving on Tudor releases? Namely, less scuffs and scratches on hands, nicer looking dials, etc.
Cant it look great with 6.25inch wrist?
Is it me or is the white of the hands not the same as the white of the indexes?
Yet another gem.Do keep them coming.Not a bad watch for the price point.Keep well and stay safe.
Some imperfections notwithstanding, I think Tudor Black Bay Chrono Panda Dial is a strong proposition and very attractive watch ! Your video certainly made it so !
Well done thank you. True review and not a sales pitch.
I like that it says "I'm Hafiz" in the intro. 😆🤣
Excellent review again. My reverse Panda does not have the issue you mentioned regarding the chrono second hand from 7.45 onwards.
Excellent video as always. Would be interesting to see how this stacks up to the Breitling Premier B01 Chronograph. Please consider it for review 👍
Great piece and amazing value but I prefer the reverse Panda black dial.
Wonderful video editing and the script and information are top notch 👏🏼
Excellent camera work and thanks for sharing. As far as height is concerned, how would you compare it to a Submariner ceramic or Black Bay 58? Thank you!
cant get a rolex.......so i tried a BB58,not bad at all and this Chrono is sweet too
Very clear observation under microscopes.
My AD is getting a couple of these next month, and already spoken for. So, I might be waiting for a while. But I hope to have one at some point.
Great video, great content. Well done Hafiz !
I have this watch and this is a honest review of it. It's big, but I love it!
Thanks for this excellent review. The videography as usual is excellent
Nice watch should have got rid of the snowflake hands for this I believe but what do I know .
Please do a review on the Palagos 39
This is an excellent video Hafiz, as are your others. Really good detail.
I would go with the Breitling Premier with the B01. 100 meters water resistant. Same movement. Don’t have to unscrew the pushers, to time something. No pretensions of being a diver.
I wish you could also review the new 36mm SS explorer
Excellent review and camera work.
Wow. Great video. And that’s some SERIOUS micro shot
Fantastic watch!!!
Absolutely stunning!!!

Hafiz, I love your channel.
Another excellent review brother. Agree about hands and screw down pushers.
I think 🤔 the contrast looks better with the Tudor black leather strap.
Superbly presented content. You truly have put your heart and soul into this.
Top video ... as always . I put mine on a Everest strap
Dear Mr. Hafiz
Hello , nice review and perfect videograghy, I decided to purchase watch but I don't know which one is better and best look, I like 2 brands 1- IWC pilot chronograph ( IW388102) 41mm and 2- Tudor black bay chronograph S&G, you think which one the best and better quality????
Thank you so much.
Very tempted to trade my Pelagos LHD for this…
amazing combination of mysic and high quality footage
Are you planning on reviewing the new 3861 Speedmaster or the Snoopy?
1:08 Big watch for the time ? Automatic chronographs of Movado and Favre-Leuba were 40 mm and had a big cushion case. #Horology #chronoscope #chronograph
Placed a deposit with AD, waiting for the 🐼 to arrive!
Anyone turned off by having to unscrew the chronograph dials to use?
Me
2:40 till 2:54.....the second hand was shaking!!!! So obviously!!!
I think this a beautiful watch! I agree with you about the hands! But I could live with it!
Good review.... I picked up the Panda version and observed the exact short comings as you . The legibility of the handset without black accents is annoying and the screw down pushers although they resemble Rolexes Daytona aren't practical for timing anything without preparation. I liked and subscribed. : )
You noted some of my feelings on this model. It's confused. It doesn't know if it's a dive watch or speed watch.
The perk would be washing the car, bathing the kids, swimming, washing the dishes, etc, without fear of damage. I'm looking at the Omega Speedmaster Racing, and it being more delicate in this regard, makes the Tudor VERY appealing to me.
Great review as always. I really like this but not sure if it's a bit big for my taste.
What a brilliant review with an insight into subtle flaws 👍
Excellent and well presented review 👌
Love Your RUclips content. Favourite everyday watch 5-8k USD?
Great review, thank you, Hafiz. Yeah think Tudor has a winner here.
Amazing footage and review format.. instant subscribe. We seem to have the same wrist size, so that's great for me to see as a reference. Does it wear similar to a 116710 GMT?
I actually like this more than the Daytona. The Zenith chronomaster sport is even better still.
it's weird it feels like the big second hand is vibrating
Would buy it if it had a ceramic bezel and real rivets
Could you tell me some in this price range that you have ceramic beveling?
I'm looking at the clock and I'm interested in what you're talking about, greetings
Nice watch but the chronograph second hand is not very smooth and rather looks jumpy in some places like a car having rusty spark plugs.
NEED 100%. Great review bro
Excellent review, and it's not the first. Keep it up!
Great video. Hope to see one on the new 36mm Explorer soon!
