·925 silver is what jewellery is made of isn't it? So what stops it getting that tarnished look?

·Probably some drawbacks, it’s also softer than stainless steel. Never had issues with my silver bracelets though. Polish with silver cloth every now and then. Starting to think this is my favourite BB58. Won’t have to worry about that sorry riveted bracelet either.

Just had an email from my Tudor AD telling me about the new models so have shot back a reply asking what the wait would be like. Still on the fence...

·As I understand it, it's a 925 silver alloy, i.e. it's mixed with other metals to give it better hardness and preserve a shiny appearance longer. You can change the properties of a metal with an alloy for sure.

·Seriously mulling over ringing my AD to order the silver/taupe BB58. But no bracelet and see-through caseback are putting me off. And one of the things I love about the BB58 is the polished case sides. They're brushed on the silver/taupe. I can take or leave the fact that it's a silver alloy. All in all, I think I'm happy with my BB58 blue and will try and resist the shiny new objects.

·Of all the "other watches/other brands" new releases today, the new Tudor Chrono also interests me the most. 👍
I knew you would love this one also.
It's what you've been hoping for in a Carrera.
Fingers crossed you get your wish soon.
I'm seriously considering ordering one of these.
Reverse or Panda? What's your thoughts?

·Also want to know the thickness of the case, I find that the standard 41mm Black Bays are a little too thick and slab sided for me.

·I loved how Hodinkee published their praising "articles" of the Breitling releases on the same day they announced that they are now an AD for Breitling by the way
Of course. You know Hodonkey sold out a long time ago. Why do you still bother with them?

Thanks. That seems encouraging, 14.4mm is thinner than the standard BB's 14.75mm thickness.

Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, you crack me up. Do you really think that you are going to notice a 0.35mm difference?

·Some live shots of the BB Chrono. https://www.instagram.com/p/CNYNUPAgJWq/
Based on the wrist shots, I think I'm starting to lean towards the reverse panda.

I think the Hands on the White dial get a little lost. Definitely the Black dial for me. The contrast is very nice.
