·Bit of 844 lume…. Not bad for a 40 yr old watch eh
Thanks Charlie - That’s the plan. I’ve had both 58’s in the last 2 years but the bracelet didn’t fit 100% for me - either too big with an extra link and minimum holes or vice-Versa. For a good part of the year it’s fine but during the summer it became uncomfortable, and I tend not to travel with a screwdriver and extra links in tow!
This bracelet solves that for me, which is great as in all other aspects they are absolutely terrific watches. It will also give me the option to pick on up on the leather which will give me the full set of 20mm options, having the pro on the great Tudor fabric.
I guess I'm lucky, the BB58 bracelet fits my wrist just fine. I tend to wear my watches looser, so during these hot humid summer months I have no need to adjust the size when my wrist expands.
I’m guessing this won’t be a forum favourite, but it’s much better in the metal than and render or photo shows. I’ve basically worn it every day for the last week as it’s so comfortable.
And the bracelet is a game changer a proper tapering oyster with the t-fit.
now to find a cheap Pre owned 58 at some point.
Hi all, newbie here. Couldnt help but notice similarities between these two and snap a pic. Yeah, that Tudor is a sharp piece with nod to 60s as well. Nice!
This date was picked up by dad whilst in USAF service for grandfather. I have the receipt from PX but no box.
