Would love to see a BB58 vs BB54 comparison video! Yes I impulsed the living crap out of my Explorer 1 purchase when they released the 36mm size in 2021 - I couldn't contain myself. Lol
I tried it on. Too small for me. It's just a fad. Guarantee buyers remorse. I would recommend the Black Bay 58 or the 36 with blue sunburst dial. ruclips.net/video/AlmtJOdMpt4/видео.html
Hi Brittany, obviously you don’t know me but, …….. in my personal opinion, as long as your purchases don’t have a negative effect on your life, then treat yourself to what you want! I’ve watched hard working loved ones die before their time, always putting off what they really wanted, be it purchases, holidays whatever! We’re only here for a short time! Enjoy what you can, Keep up the great work and enjoy 👍xx
Glad to see you're getting well! My dad crashed his bike 2 decades ago and broke his back and thankfully he recovered after a year of therapy. He's also a watch collector and has a lot of expensive watches.
Man! I’m so glad to hear your dad is ok! 💕💕 does he still cycle?! I still can’t see myself back on a bicycle but I hope this passes. 💕 the healing is coming! Feeling so lucky to be alive woth no serious problems!
@@BrittPearceWatches Worse, I meant he crashed om his motorbike on a telephone pole. He rode a bike that was way more powerful than his skill level so he lost control as that bike was known to have so much power in a light frame. Any accident you can survive from and recover is lucky one. My brother had a worse accident crashing on the side of the van and breaking all his ribs. Both he and my dad like riding motorbikes that are too strong for them to handle. But both of them are too stubborn to die.
I broke my jaw last year, so I feel your pain, it gets better, hang in there!! I've been considering picking up a Tudor forever and after watching this, I think a trip to my AD is in order...
My impulse buy was the BB58. I love it! I’m so damn impressed that you are up and looking like a snack so soon after surgery. Incredibly happy for you . And love this watch on you!
Oh now THIS IS TOO KIND! 😭💕 I don’t feel like a snack again yet! But each day is a little better than the last! I’ve been wearing the Speedmaster and she’s been giving me a speedy recovery! 😜 What BB58 did you go for?! 😱 blue or black?!
Blue. There is something about the blue dial tone, white and silver that just makes me happy. I am interested to try the 56, they have some nice differences that make it intriguing. What did you think of the Rolex Daytona? Saw a glimpse of it in your b-roll.
Thanks for non resting from your surgery... We got nice videos thanks to you. Really want that video comparaison with the 2 tudor. Thanks for the video
I love the longer lugs on this piece. I’ve found that one of the differences between vintage and contemporary pieces is not necessarily the lug to lug measurement, but the ratio between the lugs and case. In my opinion, a slightly smaller case but longer lugs is more visually elegant than the opposite.
You're one of the first people I thought of when the Tudors came out this year. Glad you treated yourself. I would love to see the comparison video with the BB58. Despite having a wrist that could permit a Black Bay Heritage, I kinda want the 54. it's just so awesomely retro...
Finally, someone who wears a watch properly and doesn't complain about the comfort of a watch while they have it sized so big that the the crown is digging in to them and pushing the skin up on their hand !! Excellent video. 👍
Love the impulse buy. For me, my biggest impulse was buying a Seiko Presage (i am poor lol). I would love to see a dedicated video comparing your 54 and 58. And also, it is great to see how well you are recovering! You more than deserve to treat yourself with a great watch like this!
This watch is an absolute Home Run! My two favorite watches of all time are the Rolex 6204 and the Tudor 7922. This watch is a beautiful homage to those. I'm surprised you were able to obtain one so fast. I thought maybe they would take awhile before they were available. Congratulations!
I’m surprised I was able to obtain one so fast! 😂🤷🏻♀️ I did not expect this at all! I thought we were jusy gonna go have a gossip with the AD! Didn’t expect to see this at all! 😱 Tudor is really good for getting their watches out fast tho!
Godspeed on recovery. You and your voice make me happy. I am also recovering, from a surgery. All the best to you and your Husband. Thank you for posting.
Hey Britt, many congrats on your purchase - you deserve a treat and it looks great on you (and on those with slimmer wrists). I already have two BB58s and despite the T-Fit clasp, I could never justify getting one myself. Like you I also struggle with the missing hash marks on the bezel and that new crown looks way too small for my stubby fingers. Having said all this, it will be a huge seller.
I frankly love the rivets on the bracelet. Not only are they unique and historically correct but they adf a touch of design in an otherwise boring flat surface.
Good to see your jaw doing better. On the Tudor front, I had a BB58 but sold it since it's a little too big for my 5.5" wrist. I have been wondering about the BB54 since W&W. So glad you did a video. And yes would love to see a battle royale between the two BBs.
Hi Britt - I did the same just before Christmas when my AD amazingly (!) had a steel and gold, diet rootbeer, GMT in stock. Just fell for it and wearing it tons. Good luck and best wishes for your recovery.
I hope this inspires other brands to do a midsize diver as well. I have tiny wrists and rocking the previous gen seamaster midsize, so def not scared of smaller watches.
"you can really feel the 2mm size difference" - things us watch geeks say that will sound totally insane to normal people 🤣. Congrats on the new piece and get well soon!
I’ve been collecting for 17 years. My first 3 watches were impulse buys. Haven’t made one since. But this video inspires me me to do so. Tudor or IWC would probably be my choices for a spontaneous buy. Congrats btw.
Congrats and you are sounding much better keep up the great recovery I see a glimmer of pre accident Brit in there and can’t wait to see you back at 100%
WG!!!! Congratulations! I’m on the plane coming home from W&W! The BB54 was great but did not like the tiny tiny crown!!!! They had a Tudor sub 1955 on display with an awesome big crown plus the red triangle on the bezel! I much preferred that!
Great take & speed recovery. Tudor is doing a fantastic job and the Black Bay 54 is definitely the best release this year in the watch world. Seems like the full expression of a "do-it-all" watch, even more than an Explorer. The size is adequate for everyone and the dressier aesthetics is historically respectful without being an historical piece. I absolutely hope that this starts a trend among all other brands.
Nothing wrong with a new beautiful watch🎉 congratulations as you heal ... which sounds like a great reason for a watch! Wishing you a continued getting better.
If Tudor didn't release the 54 this year, it wouldn't have been one of, if not THE standout watch of Watches & Wonders. I think it is a brilliant, beautiful watch and now on the top of my wish list. Congratulations.
I frankly find the bezel insert far more aesthetically appealing without the graduated markers you prefer; it's true to the vintage look, as well. It's why I bought the MKII Kingston, which resembles this 54 so closely, though the Kingston is a 39mm, so a big larger. Love the 37mm perhaps even better, though.
Great video! A BB54 vs BB58 video would be perfect! I have a 6” wrist and have been waiting for that perfect diver to come out but I’m still torn between the two watches
The thing that I love about my BB58 is the red triangle, I can't explain it but every time I wear it my eye is drawn to it and I smile. Without it although still a very pretty watch the BB54 for me is a little too sedate.
Everyone’s been wearing 40mm watches that are too big for them. When you get a 37mm watch on with a significant lug-to-lug of 45mm it’s basically perfect for everyone.
Having the gorgeous bb58 blue in my collection and now lusting over this new bb54, I’d love to see that comparison video. As much as I just want to go to my AD and buy this new bb54, I’m not sure if I can justify having two watches that look and provide such a similar experience. Please make that video! I think it’ll help many of us make that decision.
As you said a few videos ago, tomorrow is not guaranteed. So an impulse buy that brings joy, and does not put you extremis, is great. You seem to feel better - which is also goodness! Enjoy your new watch!!
Congrats, Britt - I love the 54! It wears great on your wrist and it also looks great on James' wrist :) I'm looking forward to trying a 54 at my AD and comparing it to my 58. I don't plan to buy a 54 as I still am in love with my black/gilt 58, but the 54 looks fantastic. I'd love to see a 54 v. 58 video. And yes, I've had impulse watch buys before, but never at the $ level of a Tudor. Glad you are getting better :)
Congrats on that purchase Britt, you truly deserved it!!! This gorgeous watch just makes so much sense for you, it just qualifies as a no brainer. Personally I would have loved to see a smile dial and for some weird reason I prefer the crown of the 58. But otherwise this timepiece is utter perfection! 👌
Ahhh thank you sooo much! You know, it did feel a bit like a no brainer 🙈 this belongs in the gringa collection!! Hehe. Hope you have a gorgeous weekend! 💕
Registered interest 9am Monday. Received BB54 Thursday. Epic. Love it. Amazing. Everything you said. I have a 6.5” wrist. My BB58 now feels like a SD 😂😂
Oh thank you so much! It did feel like a bit of a celebration purchase 🎉 the worst is over! And now each day is a little better than the last. And I mean… it was jusy too perfect to pass up£ 💕💕💕
I eventually, finally parted ways with me orient bino. I put the proceeds of the sale into a PreOwned 36mm oyster perpetual and I’m really digging it man and I have a 7.5” wrist. After the sale of my last kidney I just may be checking out the black bay 54. I love your videos. The watch gringa is my favorite place to go on all of RUclips.
I have a 7.5" wrist and have a preference towards smaller diameter watches from 36-38mm. To me they are less obtrusive and look more refined. Love your Black Bay. Nice pick up 👍
You know, I couldn’t agree more! There’s a certain kind of look and proportion you get from those sizes. I like to be able to see a particular amount of bracelet and dial on the wrist. You know?!
The biggest thing I noticed, was the bezel on the 54, edge is more "slippery" vs the 58. harder to grip now and was put off when I saw it in person. If you compare on your end, you will see what I mean. The crown too, much harder to grip vs the 58 (due to the finish on the material vs the BB58).
I finally got the chance to get a Tudor last fall and ended up going with the BB36 in black. I liked BB58 quite a bit but it was just a hair too big, so this release is very tempting! At least the new BB36 line went into a pretty off-putting design direction for me so there's no need to think about a 1000€ upgrade there 😀
Gringa!! Another great video pushing you even closer to 55K subs!!! Awesome watch pick up and it looks amazing. I have not yet seen any of the new releases in person, and I am scared. I have been waiting for the an FXD, but I am scared that I may impulse buy the new BB or GMT once I see it on my wrist. At a RedBar meetup this past week, several Tudor Cult members discussed our anticipation in seeing the new releases in person. Great to see you letting Editing Britt to appear also. Long Live the Cult(s)!!
I would like to see a BB54 vs. 58 comparison video. Please included measurements and even how long the clasp is between them. My AD rep isn't sure how well the BB54 will sell. He feels it's a bit small, at least for our market. They've still not gotten any of the new Tudors in yet, but supposedly will be getting 3 of them soon (no details on which). Your face is looking much better, and you seem to me to be struggling less with speaking, so that's good! I hope you continue on the path to full recovery.
Agree the new bracelet is an improvement, but I feel 39mm is a perfect size for a sports / dive watch. I also love the gilt bezel numerals, red iconic triangle (Rolex Big Crown), and the snowflake seconds counter weight of the BB58. All that is gone on the BB54 making it rather dull in comparison to the 58.
Haha it’s true! It depends on your tastes! :) so I got the bb58 blue because I found all the gilt and gold a bit too much for me. I like that this one has the white bezel! And really…. The big difference is the size! Great for the small wrist crew!
Nice review ! Having purchased a BB54, I agree with all your points. I had a slightly worse impulse buying experience than you (!) - I saw the watch online , called an AD who had it in stock in another city, paid for it and had them ship it to me ! The small crown is really no problem if you wear the watch everyday. I have not noticed the faux-rivets at all. I’m a thin guy and fits great. Kind of watch that I thought would never be made - a small dive watch ! Wish you quick and healthy recovery !💐
This is clearly a pre-cursor to the 58 being updated either next year or mid-way through this year. 100%. Buying a 58 right now is probably not the wisest move…
Glad you’re healing up! I too have the BB58 in blue, and would love to see a comparison video as I could see myself trading that for the BB54 possibly👀
I bought a Black Bay 58 last year. Please do not do a comparison video. Also don't talk about the 54 ever again. ...With its slimmed down proportions, and its refined second hand sans snowflake. I'm not interested in the way it slips under the cuff just right. Or the cleaner bezel. And I certainly don't care for the sleeker crown which hugs the slimmer case, or that we spoke and Tudor listened. Not interested. Nope. (insert annoyed girlfriend meme where my girlfriend is the 58 and the passing hot random is a 54).
I have the blue 58 (6.7 inch wrist) and I tried the 54 today. I’m definitely switching to the 54 once they release it in blue. I agree with her assessment of the watch.
My thought is...54 maybe perfect for your wrist size but for most men, the BB58 is the sweetspot. Also some may even prefer the BB58 aesthetically to the BB54 independent of size. Thanks for your video and congrats on the new 54. PS. as a sporty male with average wrist size, all said, I prefer the Pelagos 39 Ti as I believe the vintage thing is overplayed even though I am a lot older than you but probably don't act it.
Hey Britt, you look 200% better. I hope you feel better as well. This Tudor looks fabulous on you wrist. I guess it will be the ultimate ladies divers watch in existence. Gentlemen with smallish wrists are going to have a proportionally better looking watch than the BB58 as well. It will look too small though on my 7.5 inch wrist, so I’ll keep my 58 after all.
Interesting that it seems to have the same lug width as the BB58. I did think it was too wide for the BB54 at first, but like the 21mm lug width on the Pelagos 39, the bigger lug width to case size ratio works very well, and I look forward to seeing one in the flesh.
Glad you’re healing up! Yes I think we all have had that spur of the moment… OOoooo Im buying that watch! I recently did the same thing but I purchased a Christopher Ward C65 Dune with Blue dial!
Unfortunately I have too many bloody impulse buys lol. My 6.25 inch wrist just loves this watch so as soon as I have saved enough for it I will got and try it on. Glad to see you getting better each day 😊
This is such a tempting watch. I wish Tudor would stop putting unnecessary text on their dials, a popular complaint, but at least it’s not as noticeable as white on black. Thanks for the video!
This size opens that watch genre to a much bigger customer base. I can see the size being used to for more vibrant colours in the future . Hope you're not in too much pain , missing my little Canadian watch geek . Stay strong . 😊
Ola Watch Gringa, Superb Watch, and Good to see you getting well, more wishes and prayers. After watching ur last Tudor video i knew your next is gona be a Tudor. The watch size is perfect esp the reduced crown.
Continued prayers for your ongoing recovery. The 54 looks good on you. I sometimes buy a watch on impulse, but given that I cap my watch purchases at about $350 per piece, buying a new piece on impulse doesn't crash my budget and is entirely supportable.
Whaaaat! Thank you so much! And I’m so glad you’re enjoying my weird little channel! I am Canadian! I’ve always felt like Canadians and Kiwis have a lot in common. 💕✨ gorgeous country’s, and we often get confused with our neighbours when travelling (Aussies and Yanks) 😜✨✨
Get that compy spent. Love the watch, congrats and enjoy. It’d be good to see it on a variety of straps given the length and width of the lugs. Once again, congratulations.
I’m with you 1000000%!!!! This is the video I needed. I have the BB58 blue as well, and impulse bought the BB54 on Thursday. I literally haven’t removed the stickers as I’ve been trying to justify it holding the two side by side… also have a 6” wrist. AHHHH literally. Thank you for this video!
I laughed out loud when you said "you can really feel the 2mm size difference"! I worked in an AD for a year and this is the kind of comment that would make my non-watch friends look at me like I was speaking in tongues 🤣
Happy for you, this is a wonderful watch that is absolutely singular in its category. How many other dive watches wear this well at 37mm while still having plenty of presence. My 6.5 inch is ready.
I actually impulse purchased the Tudor bb 58 bronze and it was my first Tudor. It’s been around a year I think and it’s still one of my favourite watches
Glad to see you recovering and congrats on the impulse purchase! My impulse purchase was the Zenith Chronomaster Orignal. Maybe not the most financially sound impulse buy, but when in Switzerland...
I just reserved this watch. Own a few 41/42mm watches but there is just something stunning about the proportions / aesthetics of this watch that blows me away
![NOSFERATU - Official Trailer [HD] - Only In Theaters December 25](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/nulvWqYUM8k/mqdefault.jpg)
It’s not irresponsible, you just needed a new watch to celebrate your recovery 🎉
Right?! 😅 celebration watch! 💕 happy to be alive to make irresponsible decisions!
Absolutely - new jaw, new watch!
It’s a recovery watch lol
Think of it as a physical therapy device. Perhaps you could write it off of your taxes. J/K
You deserve it !!! You don’t need to justify it to anybody !
Would love to see a BB58 vs BB54 comparison video! Yes I impulsed the living crap out of my Explorer 1 purchase when they released the 36mm size in 2021 - I couldn't contain myself. Lol
Absolutely, we want the video
LOL’ you did the right thing in that impulse but! 😍😍 when it’s meant to be, it’s meant to be!
And YAY! Ok!! I am feeling inspired to do this comparison video now!!
Uptick watch reviewed already
I tried it on. Too small for me. It's just a fad. Guarantee buyers remorse. I would recommend the Black Bay 58 or the 36 with blue sunburst dial.
ruclips.net/video/AlmtJOdMpt4/видео.html
Congrats on the purchase! Happy to see you able to literally work through the pain. I would love a 58 vs. 54 comparison video. Good idea!
Oh thank you sooo much! 💕 honestly, it’s a nice distraction having work to do! Makes me feel useful again! 💕💕 comparison video inbound!
Hi Brittany, obviously you don’t know me but, …….. in my personal opinion, as long as your purchases don’t have a negative effect on your life, then treat yourself to what you want!
I’ve watched hard working loved ones die before their time, always putting off what they really wanted, be it purchases, holidays whatever!
We’re only here for a short time! Enjoy what you can,
Keep up the great work and enjoy 👍xx
Glad to see you're getting well! My dad crashed his bike 2 decades ago and broke his back and thankfully he recovered after a year of therapy. He's also a watch collector and has a lot of expensive watches.
Man! I’m so glad to hear your dad is ok! 💕💕 does he still cycle?! I still can’t see myself back on a bicycle but I hope this passes. 💕 the healing is coming! Feeling so lucky to be alive woth no serious problems!
@@BrittPearceWatches Worse, I meant he crashed om his motorbike on a telephone pole. He rode a bike that was way more powerful than his skill level so he lost control as that bike was known to have so much power in a light frame. Any accident you can survive from and recover is lucky one. My brother had a worse accident crashing on the side of the van and breaking all his ribs. Both he and my dad like riding motorbikes that are too strong for them to handle. But both of them are too stubborn to die.
Britney! An in-depth comparison between the BB54 & BB58? Absolutely! Take care of that jaw! 🙏 for a full recovery!
Oh thank you soo much! I am taking today off to rest my jaw! 💕 but comparison video is COMING UP!
Congratulations Britt! A watch to celebrate your recovery was needed. So glad your on the mend 🎉
Oh HEY LOVELY! 💕💕💕 thabk you soooo so much£ ive been following all your Watches and Wonders content! Loving it!
I broke my jaw last year, so I feel your pain, it gets better, hang in there!! I've been considering picking up a Tudor forever and after watching this, I think a trip to my AD is in order...
My impulse buy was the BB58. I love it! I’m so damn impressed that you are up and looking like a snack so soon after surgery. Incredibly happy for you . And love this watch on you!
Oh now THIS IS TOO KIND! 😭💕 I don’t feel like a snack again yet! But each day is a little better than the last! I’ve been wearing the Speedmaster and she’s been giving me a speedy recovery! 😜
What BB58 did you go for?! 😱 blue or black?!
Blue. There is something about the blue dial tone, white and silver that just makes me happy. I am interested to try the 56, they have some nice differences that make it intriguing. What did you think of the Rolex Daytona? Saw a glimpse of it in your b-roll.

I love the longer lugs on this piece. I’ve found that one of the differences between vintage and contemporary pieces is not necessarily the lug to lug measurement, but the ratio between the lugs and case. In my opinion, a slightly smaller case but longer lugs is more visually elegant than the opposite.
Bingo!
It’s soooo true!!! I was going to include the lug measurement but I thought that was too geeky hahaha! But this is exactly it!
After everything youve been through Britt you deserve a treat!!!!
Enjoy in good health, Much love!!!
You're one of the first people I thought of when the Tudors came out this year. Glad you treated yourself. I would love to see the comparison video with the BB58. Despite having a wrist that could permit a Black Bay Heritage, I kinda want the 54. it's just so awesomely retro...

Maybe check out Tudor mini sub which is only 33mm. As I’m used to wear vintage I feel that 37mm can still be oversized for small wrists.
Hi Britt - I did the same just before Christmas when my AD amazingly (!) had a steel and gold, diet rootbeer, GMT in stock. Just fell for it and wearing it tons. Good luck and best wishes for your recovery.
I hope this inspires other brands to do a midsize diver as well. I have tiny wrists and rocking the previous gen seamaster midsize, so def not scared of smaller watches.
Right?! I hope so too! It’s a really enjoyable wear!
That which does not kill us makes us stronger.
And poorer.
Seriously, wonderful to see you recovering well and a lovely watch to celebrate with.
"you can really feel the 2mm size difference" - things us watch geeks say that will sound totally insane to normal people 🤣. Congrats on the new piece and get well soon!
Super nice. I always wanted a BB58 and now I will probably go for the BB54. It totally speaks to me as well.
I’ve been collecting for 17 years. My first 3 watches were impulse buys. Haven’t made one since. But this video inspires me me to do so. Tudor or IWC would probably be my choices for a spontaneous buy. Congrats btw.
doesn't sound spontaneous :-)
Congrats and you are sounding much better keep up the great recovery I see a glimmer of pre accident Brit in there and can’t wait to see you back at 100%
I went into the jewlers to collect my fiancee's resized ring and walked out with a Black bay Heritage red on my wrist.. Impulse buy, hell yeah!!
WG!!!! Congratulations! I’m on the plane coming home from W&W! The BB54 was great but did not like the tiny tiny crown!!!! They had a Tudor sub 1955 on display with an awesome big crown plus the red triangle on the bezel! I much preferred that!

Great video! A BB54 vs BB58 video would be perfect! I have a 6” wrist and have been waiting for that perfect diver to come out but I’m still torn between the two watches
Ahhhh! VIDEO COMING UP!! Hopefully help you decide! 😱💕 or do what I did…. Just get both! 😜✨
+1 for the 58 vs 54 comparison. That's what we are all here for.
Yes i walked straight into my AD and purchased my bb58, with no regrets, definitely going to have a look at 54, a comparison video would be great.
Ahhh! Coming up! Hopefully sometime next week! 💕💕
The thing that I love about my BB58 is the red triangle, I can't explain it but every time I wear it my eye is drawn to it and I smile. Without it although still a very pretty watch the BB54 for me is a little too sedate.
Glad to see your recovery is going well, Britt! If they make a smaller Ranger with the case of the 54, they can take my money.
Oh my GOODNESS! I’ll be at the ad again with my credit card if they do!
Congratulations for that beautiful watch , enjoy it and get better , thanks for showing.
Everyone’s been wearing 40mm watches that are too big for them. When you get a 37mm watch on with a significant lug-to-lug of 45mm it’s basically perfect for everyone.

And yes, I've had impulse watch buys before, but never at the $ level of a Tudor. Glad you are getting better :)
Yes we need a comparison video with this and the BB58! Congratulations on the new watch, great video and speedy recovery
OUU HOO! Comparison video is coming up!

Personally I would have loved to see a smile dial and for some weird reason I prefer the crown of the 58. But otherwise this timepiece is utter perfection! 👌
Ahhh thank you sooo much! You know, it did feel a bit like a no brainer 🙈 this belongs in the gringa collection!! Hehe. Hope you have a gorgeous weekend! 💕
@Britt Pearce Right! This watch is just 100 % "Gringa" 😄 Enjoy your weekend, I'm sure this watch helps!
Registered interest 9am Monday. Received BB54 Thursday. Epic. Love it. Amazing. Everything you said. I have a 6.5” wrist. My BB58 now feels like a SD 😂😂
After what you have been through, why not ! Also the 54 is a perfect watch size for you and looks great 👍
Oh thank you so much! It did feel like a bit of a celebration purchase 🎉 the worst is over! And now each day is a little better than the last. And I mean… it was jusy too perfect to pass up£ 💕💕💕
I eventually, finally parted ways with me orient bino. I put the proceeds of the sale into a PreOwned 36mm oyster perpetual and I’m really digging it man and I have a 7.5” wrist. After the sale of my last kidney I just may be checking out the black bay 54. I love your videos. The watch gringa is my favorite place to go on all of RUclips.
I have a 7.5" wrist and have a preference towards smaller diameter watches from 36-38mm.
To me they are less obtrusive and look more refined.
Love your Black Bay. Nice pick up 👍
You know, I couldn’t agree more! There’s a certain kind of look and proportion you get from those sizes. I like to be able to see a particular amount of bracelet and dial on the wrist. You know?!
Love it Britt! Best of luck with you healing post surgery.
The biggest thing I noticed, was the bezel on the 54, edge is more "slippery" vs the 58. harder to grip now and was put off when I saw it in person. If you compare on your end, you will see what I mean. The crown too, much harder to grip vs the 58 (due to the finish on the material vs the BB58).
The watch is lovely and looks perfect on your wrist, Britt. Hope you have a “speedy” recovery (Omega pun in a Tudor comment LOL).
I finally got the chance to get a Tudor last fall and ended up going with the BB36 in black. I liked BB58 quite a bit but it was just a hair too big, so this release is very tempting!
At least the new BB36 line went into a pretty off-putting design direction for me so there's no need to think about a 1000€ upgrade there 😀
I think a side by side 54 vs 58 is Super Necessary! Thanks, Britt. Wishing you a speedy recovery!
Glad to see u treated yourself. Enjoy life. And yes do a video on both 😊 love the comparison videos
Gringa!! Another great video pushing you even closer to 55K subs!!! Awesome watch pick up and it looks amazing. I have not yet seen any of the new releases in person, and I am scared. I have been waiting for the an FXD, but I am scared that I may impulse buy the new BB or GMT once I see it on my wrist. At a RedBar meetup this past week, several Tudor Cult members discussed our anticipation in seeing the new releases in person. Great to see you letting Editing Britt to appear also. Long Live the Cult(s)!!
DON IS HERE! 🎉💕 ahh thank you so much! Omg I could sooo see you with the GMT! But also the FXD belongs in your collection!
I would like to see a BB54 vs. 58 comparison video. Please included measurements and even how long the clasp is between them. My AD rep isn't sure how well the BB54 will sell. He feels it's a bit small, at least for our market. They've still not gotten any of the new Tudors in yet, but supposedly will be getting 3 of them soon (no details on which). Your face is looking much better, and you seem to me to be struggling less with speaking, so that's good! I hope you continue on the path to full recovery.
Agree the new bracelet is an improvement, but I feel 39mm is a perfect size for a sports / dive watch. I also love the gilt bezel numerals, red iconic triangle (Rolex Big Crown), and the snowflake seconds counter weight of the BB58. All that is gone on the BB54 making it rather dull in comparison to the 58.
Haha it’s true! It depends on your tastes! :) so I got the bb58 blue because I found all the gilt and gold a bit too much for me. I like that this one has the white bezel! And really…. The big difference is the size! Great for the small wrist crew!
I’m with you! I prefer the 58 for all the reason you listed above. Butttt I will gladly buy up a BB54 Blue in a heartbeat
Nice review ! Having purchased a BB54, I agree with all your points. I had a slightly worse impulse buying experience than you (!) - I saw the watch online , called an AD who had it in stock in another city, paid for it and had them ship it to me ! The small crown is really no problem if you wear the watch everyday. I have not noticed the faux-rivets at all. I’m a thin guy and fits great. Kind of watch that I thought would never be made - a small dive watch !
Wish you quick and healthy recovery !💐
This is clearly a pre-cursor to the 58 being updated either next year or mid-way through this year. 100%. Buying a 58 right now is probably not the wisest move…
You are not alone! Last year i made an impulse buy on the bb58 too
The dial looks to have a sunburst finish? Or is it just the lighting?
Glad you’re healing up!
I too have the BB58 in blue, and would love to see a comparison video as I could see myself trading that for the BB54 possibly👀
I bought a Black Bay 58 last year. Please do not do a comparison video. Also don't talk about the 54 ever again. ...With its slimmed down proportions, and its refined second hand sans snowflake. I'm not interested in the way it slips under the cuff just right. Or the cleaner bezel. And I certainly don't care for the sleeker crown which hugs the slimmer case, or that we spoke and Tudor listened. Not interested. Nope. (insert annoyed girlfriend meme where my girlfriend is the 58 and the passing hot random is a 54).
I have the blue 58 (6.7 inch wrist) and I tried the 54 today. I’m definitely switching to the 54 once they release it in blue. I agree with her assessment of the watch.
My thought is...54 maybe perfect for your wrist size but for most men, the BB58 is the sweetspot. Also some may even prefer the BB58 aesthetically to the BB54 independent of size.
Thanks for your video and congrats on the new 54.
PS. as a sporty male with average wrist size, all said, I prefer the Pelagos 39 Ti as I believe the vintage thing is overplayed even though I am a lot older than you but probably don't act it.
Hey Britt, you look 200% better. I hope you feel better as well. This Tudor looks fabulous on you wrist. I guess it will be the ultimate ladies divers watch in existence. Gentlemen with smallish wrists are going to have a proportionally better looking watch than the BB58 as well. It will look too small though on my 7.5 inch wrist, so I’ll keep my 58 after all.
Interesting that it seems to have the same lug width as the BB58.
I did think it was too wide for the BB54 at first, but like the 21mm lug width on the Pelagos 39, the bigger lug width to case size ratio works very well, and I look forward to seeing one in the flesh.
Glad you’re healing up! Yes I think we all have had that spur of the moment… OOoooo Im buying that watch! I recently did the same thing but I purchased a Christopher Ward C65 Dune with Blue dial!
I like Tudor, but 54mm is too large for me.
😂💕💕 it’s 37mm 😇
Unfortunately I have too many bloody impulse buys lol. My 6.25 inch wrist just loves this watch so as soon as I have saved enough for it I will got and try it on. Glad to see you getting better each day 😊
wasted money imo
😂
Agreed
No, not when it makes her happy.
You're a champion, always enjoy your reviews
This is such a tempting watch. I wish Tudor would stop putting unnecessary text on their dials, a popular complaint, but at least it’s not as noticeable as white on black. Thanks for the video!
Congrats! I would definitely love to see a comparison video! Glad you’re feeling better!
This size opens that watch genre to a much bigger customer base. I can see the size being used to for more vibrant colours in the future . Hope you're not in too much pain , missing my little Canadian watch geek . Stay strong . 😊
Knew you’d buy it! Sounds like you are recovering so quickly! Great video and buy as always :)
Ola Watch Gringa,
Superb Watch, and Good to see you getting well, more wishes and prayers.
After watching ur last Tudor video i knew your next is gona be a Tudor.
The watch size is perfect esp the reduced crown.
Hey girl a hobby is a hobby you do what’s give you satisfaction and happiness plus
You deserve it keep going
Continued prayers for your ongoing recovery. The 54 looks good on you. I sometimes buy a watch on impulse, but given that I cap my watch purchases at about $350 per piece, buying a new piece on impulse doesn't crash my budget and is entirely supportable.
That shot at 2:17 is perfection ! All the best with your recovery :) I've just found your channel now and glad I did. Cheers Ron - New Zealand
Whaaaat! Thank you so much! And I’m so glad you’re enjoying my weird little channel! I am Canadian! I’ve always felt like Canadians and Kiwis have a lot in common. 💕✨ gorgeous country’s, and we often get confused with our neighbours when travelling (Aussies and Yanks) 😜✨✨
That Hans Wildorf conversation at the end was an unexpected surprise. 🤣 Hope you will continue to get better, Brittany! Best Wishes from Singapore.😃
Get that compy spent. Love the watch, congrats and enjoy. It’d be good to see it on a variety of straps given the length and width of the lugs.
Once again, congratulations.
I’m with you 1000000%!!!! This is the video I needed. I have the BB58 blue as well, and impulse bought the BB54 on Thursday. I literally haven’t removed the stickers as I’ve been trying to justify it holding the two side by side… also have a 6” wrist. AHHHH literally. Thank you for this video!
Thank you for another great video mate. I enjoyed every second. Please keep it coming.
I laughed out loud when you said "you can really feel the 2mm size difference"! I worked in an AD for a year and this is the kind of comment that would make my non-watch friends look at me like I was speaking in tongues 🤣
Happy for you, this is a wonderful watch that is absolutely singular in its category. How many other dive watches wear this well at 37mm while still having plenty of presence. My 6.5 inch is ready.
I actually impulse purchased the Tudor bb 58 bronze and it was my first Tudor. It’s been around a year I think and it’s still one of my favourite watches
Glad to see you recovering and congrats on the impulse purchase! My impulse purchase was the Zenith Chronomaster Orignal. Maybe not the most financially sound impulse buy, but when in Switzerland...
It looks like a perfect fit on your wrist! It’s beautiful on you.
54 x 58 comparison; yes! So grand to see you plowing forward. Take care!
Congratulations on your new watch. You deserve it. 😎👍👏👏👏
I just reserved this watch. Own a few 41/42mm watches but there is just something stunning about the proportions / aesthetics of this watch that blows me away
Yes to the comparison video please. Also glad to hear you’re on the mend.
