Which is your favorite Tudor release of 2021?
For the moment its the 925 silver but that’s because i own one , the gold BB58 and the bronze i haven’t seen yet in person .
Black Bay Ceramic
@@watch202 Nice nice, congrats! A very versatile watch!
@@wagsbass Nice!
I saw this watch for sale and my mind was blown. I had not heard that tutor released it. I was in shock. I immediately scrambled to RUclips to get your opinion on it and I’m so glad you gave one. Thank you keep up the great contact.
It’s incredibly comfortable and wearable. The contrast between the dial, markers and hands provides fantastic legibility. Overall, this is an outstanding sports watch - I take people’s points on the lack of a lume pip, but IMO having one would undermine the sleek aesthetic.
Good day sir, heard about the ceramic casing being brittle and fragile and would break easily. Wanted to buy this piece as a daily watch, is it really that fragile and vulnerable while wearing it? Need your kind advice. Much appreciated!
Thank you and we hope you had fun with the Tudor! :)
Absolutely!
I believe this is the first Tudor to spell out Black Bay on the dial. I love that and the dial has just the right amount of text. I look forward to trying this on.
Little warning, mine broke within a month and they “need parts” to fix it. It’s been three weeks already. We’ll see. If the delay means sending it back for a METAS then it’s fair enough but I doubt that is the case. Cheers
What happened?
Damn, broke on it's own?
There was another RUclipsr in Hong Kong whose ceramic also broke in a month. (Or maybe you are the same person?)
What the hell !~! that's really bad. Apparently, there are a lot of stories going on with Tudor owners lately. This is the main reason holding me from purchasing one. I love their watches.
I really like this release. Although there are a couple things they could have done that would have put it over the top for me. The lume dot on the bezel would have been nice and it really would have been nice for the Clasp and bezel to be DLC coated instead of PVD coated.
Agree with you!
This is a phenomenal watch, love having it in my collection.
Ahhh thank you soo much for your insights! I love the aesthetics! But I see the faults people find in it as well. But I just think it's so badass looking!
It's badass indeed! :D
what faults? (genuine question)
Best Tudor ever, and that's really saying something.
Best model yet for sure is the unique 58 925 my friend most significant piece in the last decade no doubt
Very nice watch, Good review. I own the BB Dark, Bronze and the GMT. Tudor are very well made watches. Easily the best price / value ratio for Swiss made watches.
Thank you!
I love the all black. Looks really premium and amazing.
Thanks Rok
I love mine,incredible on wrist
torn between this, the black bay 58 bronze on bronze bracelet, or the silver BB925
Tudor w/ an open case back looks really good!
yup!
Tudor is the old 1950s rolex love them have 925 and heritage 41 love them as much as the rolex sub date i wore for years my son has the bronze blue he loves it also he has thebew rokex sub date loves that piece that ceramic piece is beautiful my man
I got mine a few weeks ago and I love it.
Congratulations 👏🏻
@@SwissWatchGang Thank you sir! Just wanted to say thank you for a great review video. Really helped me decide on this over the seamaster black ceramic and use that money saved towards my next timepiece!
Phenomenal value and a good looking watch too
Yea, I can only agree!
Hey. Great stuff. Can I know what straps are you having on the bronze bucherer?thank you.
Hey. Bought those a few years ago from this brand in person here in Zürich. The color might be not the same anymore but to give you a direction as much as I can: mauricedemauriac.ch/product/gruenes-canvas-textilband/
There're reports of this watch failing just after 2-3weeks of usage recently which most likely due to the impact of METAS testing. METAS testing is extremely rough and they are the strictest institute. So the Tudor BB Ceramic may gone throught all the testing and even pass the result but it can't last till the usage of a consumer. So Tudor has a lot of homework to do if they want to keep up this METAS certification thing.
Very interesting, do you have any links?
@O BZ Thanks! Hope Tudor will be able to fix the problem
It happens on all watches from affordable to high end. Trust me I have had a few problems with watches in the past. But it is not something that can not be fixed and its under warranty. At the end of the day they are mechinical toys. Just because a youtuber purchased one that had a problem doesnt mean that all of them have the same problem. It is just he has posted it on his channel. It can happen to anything you purchase like cars.and TVs, ipads etc.. I have a few tudors and one which has been left by my grandfather and they have never had a problem.
@@richardman28 i work in the watch industry so it's not just because of one youtuber. Didn't know someone posted on social media. I received the reports via company. Tudor thought they can succeed in METAS easily but unfortunately they still need a lot of researching to do. Yes just send back for the warranty but it won't go through METAS anymore when claiming the warranty. The point is METAS testing is extremely rough and not to be taken lightly of.
@@horologywatchmaking13 that's very interesting to know. I have not had a problem with mine. Spoke to my AD who has a Tudor and Omega boutique and not heard of such problem. Not heard an official announcement from Tudor either and they still selling the waxh and no recall on them either. Well we have to wait and see if Tudor recall their watches if the rumours are true.
Its a very cool looking watch that i hope to see in person anytime soon. I pref the 39 BB58s but this BB doesn’t look that big either
It's cool you'd like it!
Do you prefer this piece or the omega ceramic black black?
I have been purchasing alot of Tudor watches in the last 2 years. I find them fun and in the last few releases it is Rolex experimenting with different materials and metals in the Tudor brand to test the market. Something they will not do with the Rolex models (why change something that works). So when this came out I obviously purchased one on release date. Paid up and awaiting delivery. I have been in to see my AD and have tried one on which belongs to the boutique for show, and it looks and feel great. First metas certified Tudor watch, in the bigger case size (I prefer as I have the GMT and the BB58 navy for comparison), open case back, some ceramic and a cool looking strap and at a reasonable affordable price. What is there not to like? BTW, its not limited edition but it is limited supply.
We did see this hybrid strap before: it’s the same as on the P01 just in black 😉
Ah you're right!
The original prototype looked so much cleaner.
Nice vid, I think the clasp and crown should be ceramic as well are they?. Not so sure about reliability even with metas as there is one sad story from uptick's watch reviews about his broken Tudor ceramic watch just barely after 1 month.
Thank you Lakes! The clasp isn't ceramic and the crown also not, PVD coated. Would be cool though.
Ceramic is a material I would like to try but haven't. This one looks nice and I may consider it when they make a smaller version.
Try the octo Finissimo ceramic. Its 5x more but much more svelt.
@@rolandharris2706 I adore OF but it looks out of proportion on my small wrist.
I am getting to really like Tudor, I don’t yet own one however reviews such as yours are pushing towards a purchase…………now just to decide which one!! Lol

Too beautiful and a very good quality the best Tudor.
Glad you like it Ricardo!
In the picture on the wall is another tudor. For the ceramic - I saw it in person at CDG airport a little over a month ago. Honestly, I was underwhelmed because it looked small and shiny, felt a bit like a toy.
Fortunately you're wrong about the picture. :)
@@SwissWatchGang Maybe I was looking at the wrong picture LOL Quite possibly it was one for the current watch LOL
@@almeladze I think so yea 😁
Tudor needs to make more blacked out watches
They are cool I give you that.
This is a beautiful watch…. 39mm… would be perfect….
What is the deal with METAS? Did they have an exclusive deal to certify Omega and now their agreement is over which is wht Tudor uses them?
Great review as always. My only concern with a ceramic case is the durability of the material. That watch is designed to be a sports watch, but how strong is the ceramic material if you accidentally hit something.
That would be the least of your concern. Ceramic is one of the hardest materials used in watches. However, all watches in all materials will have wear and tear. They will not stay brand new forever, especially if you wear them alot. Scratches and dinks create history and memories. That's what we buy watches for right? It shouldn't be sat in a draw or safe and never be worn. Enjoy your watch. You work hard to have it on your wrist..
It’s the new Grand Seiko “White Birch”.
seiko is a shitty brand bro
Yep, white birch incoming...🌳
Yes!
@@rolexmike Seiko nor Grand Seiko are shitty but of course matter of opinion!
Like the white birch but unfortunately bracelet width is 22..
I thought black bay movements were in house. Is this an exception like the chronometer?
All so called inhouse movements inside Tudor are made by Kenessi. Kenissi is owned by Rolex ( So Tudor), also Breitling and Channel has a small stake it Kenessi. The movements in Tudor are made only for Tudor so you can call them in-house since Kenessi is owned by Rolex/Tudor.
@@collectible_watches thank you for the message. I didn’t know. Everyone just says in house
ruclips.net/video/v7DXU8LVfnU/видео.html Kenissi it is yes like the gentleman below and me explained it in the video.
Astonishing
Thanks!
Looks cool but its a watch that tries to be ceramic, and it isnt, its a hybrid if you will.
Given the title I am not sure I got your final conclusion if there was one.
I prefer the Omega -
Also good! :)
I like yours but not the new black
The ceramic don’t has soul
Aluminium, gold, bronze, titane took patine
Bronze is always cool when it comes to giving the watch more character over time definitely.
@@SwissWatchGang do i have a chance to see you the 1 and the 2 of September at viva watch making ??
I’ll my home (Saint Tropez) for come me and me wife to Geneva 3 days for live watchs
