I consider myself a watch enthusiast. Today, we take for granted on how the time is displayed for us. I find it fascinating to have a miniature machine ticking away on my wrist that is calibrated to tell me the time. I want to do my part in keeping the art and science of horology alive.
Why the Black Bay 36 S&G is a True Class Act!
I review my new 36mm steel and gold Tudor Black Bay watch (M79503-0002) with its beautiful champagne sunburst dial, along with its jubilee style 5 link bracelet. I particularly like the perfect symmetry offered by the no date design. The Tudor Black Bay line embodies the brand's signature aesthetic of understated elegance and robust construction. Tudor is a sister company of Rolex and shares many design elements with the iconic luxury brand. However, Tudor watches are generally more affordable and accessible than Rolex.
The Tudor Black Bay 36 S&G watch features a classic design with clean lines and a timeless appeal. It has a round case that comes in various sizes and is made of stainless steel or a steel and gold. The dial is simple and uncluttered, with minimalist hour markers and hands.

Marathon Navigator Review | Tough composite Mil-Spec watch
dammm bro i love your watch!!!
Thank you!
What size is the gmt please the older version you are wearing and ref please ?
It’s 41mm
I’ve been eyeballing the sbgx061 but the Szsb is pretty compelling
I think that you are right. Good one.
Really nice watch and as you said, value for money is really good. I hope that you are still enjoying your Tudor BB GMT. After 3 years and a half, I’m still in love of it. Many thanks for the video. By the way, you have a new subscriber.
Yeah. I really it gives you about 80% of what a two tone date just does for 20% of the cost. Hard to argue with that.
Is this an Automatic or Quartz?
Quartz
I love how the all white seconds hand shows off that smooth sweep of my ETA2824 version 👌
I wish I had the eta version to be honest.
Which one is better hamilton or laco ?
That’s hard but I might give the edge to Hamilton
Thanks for sharing, now laco offering new model you can customize the watch according to your taste
With the TPD, I put mine on the minimum and waited to see what happend. They all stopped eventually so I then increased the time on each one until I got it right. I Have a Dukwin nine watch winder and so far am very happy with it.
If you take the perceived value of each watch out of the equation I’d choose omega. But once you add that back in then the hulk it is. But if it were me I’d sell the hulk then buy the omega and go on vacation with the left over.
Someone learned to say Bulova from TVG lol
Strapcode bracelet looks killer. Hoping there is no logo on clasp?
Steeldive homage, double dome sapphire a.r blue coated, BGW9 swiss lume, ceramic bezel insert,200 m waterproof, and stainless steel case and strap. 60 $ Thank you. Good bye.
❤
I haven't seen this watch in person but the globe insert instantly looked off in your video. That part looks way off to the genuine.
I love my Seamaster 300M in the Gray Dial!
The voice on the narration was not Martin Sheen but Sheen's brother, Joe Estevez.
I bought the 39mm with all the upgrades!
Very nice. I was tempted but it was a gift my wife so she made the final spec decision.
8:48 - There are apps for your phone that will provide frequency and accuracy of the movement--Have used one and it's pretty slick. Used with external headphones basically taped to the watch.
$700 more like $420ish at best
Real nice watch. Have a question if you can answer to me. When ordering from Japan, do you have to pay U.S customs charges or are delivered to your house with not problem .
I know this is a year old, but I just wanted to say great review. Thank you!
Needs to be about 3 mm smaller in case size and needs the glide lock and it would be perfect.
At first i thought, 'thats a very reasonabley priced sotc!' Boy, i was so wrong
It escalates quickly. I have slowed down a lot this year.
1 for value on the rolex is a bit off. If you bought that thing at retail, you can sell it and buy multiple of those Seamasters with the profit before breaking even.
Unfortunately, they don’t sell the hulk anymore so you’re stuck with secondary market prices. That’s why I gave it 1 since it feels like $9k watch that you’re paying $20k for.
@@TheTimekeeper Nah, I get your ratings are subjective, but if you owned that sub and bought it at retail, your opinion would be different. Better comparison is something in production like the current LV sub, the appreciation on that is still more than the entire price of that seamaster brand new.
That hulk dial looks a little off to me. I would get it authenticated.
I’ll pass it along to the owner.
King turtle is the best watch in the world
Your real one looks fake. Doesn’t have any gold. Doesn’t look like my 2024 model
I recently got the white (enamel?) dial variant with the arabics similar to the blue one you almost bought, but with a smooth bezel instead of fluted. I’m liking it a lot, in my mind it is somewhat of a blend between Explorer, Explorer II and Alpinist.
What a nice looking reference. Enjoy it!
Where did you purchase it ?
@@johnhan7117 Chrono24
Is this in titanium or stainless steel?
Stainless steel. I actually prefer it since it weighs more.
Definitely made as well as a date just I’ve had both and you can’t go wrong with either!.
Morning, Different subject but saw your videos on GS and BB39. I am looking for a forever and I am interested in these two. Your thoughts plz. Thank you, Rich
Hard choice. I might go for a steel Tudor black bay 58.
Is that a real Hulk Submariner? It doesnt look right..
As far as I know.
What a gorgeous looking watch! Thank you very much for sharing it with us all. Like your other pieces too, opens a window into your watch collector journey! Although mainstream you are certainly a discerning and intelligent collector.. Wear your watches in good health bruv. From across the pond Toodle Pip! Lol.
Thank you!
The name Grand Seiko is printed on the dial. The GS Monogram is placed on it. These are two loose letters glued on.
Watchmaker here. Bought dial,movement, and hands together off ebay for 60 bucks. Recasing it
I would love to see the final product. Please email me a pic. thetimekeeper.contact@gmail.com
Show me the way, master
I have this timepiece with the diamond markers. I call it the Bollinger dial. Close to the color of Bolinger Champagne 🍾 (I’m the first to call it that 😂)
Do you think the diamond indexes variant is better or this lume indexes as shown in the video is good enough already?
I think it’s all personal preference. I’m not a fan of diamonds on watches but to each their own.
This is just pure excess and consumerism manifest
Slowed down a lot this year.
Can you please answer me one question? Is crown wobbly when unscrewed in 2nd position?
It is. Never noticed that. Pretty common though.
@@TheTimekeeper Thank you!
Great points in this video. Rolex today is a luxury product. It’s not the Rolex of our fathers and grandfathers.
Do you know was the back closed or open of the real snjx90? Cause in the market you have a lot snjx90 with the open back amd i found also one with the closed one…greets
It would be alot better if you keep this hidden actually hidden instead of making a video about it
I take it that you don’t like to watch.
My AD took 20% down.. does this mean I’m getting it for sure ? Thanks in advance
I would hope so and I would imagine it should be within a short period of time. I once paid 100% for my omega greens seamaster and it took over 6 months. I wish it was only 20%.
@@TheTimekeeper You are correct! AD confirmed i should be getting it by end of August!
Nice comparison! Good method too
Both great, iconic, omega all in all is a better watch, on the other hand rolex is better in value and is much more popular.
No date or at least at 4 o'clock would be nicer IMO. Not sure I will ever buy another Ball due to service center options on tritium.
судя по оценкам, часы почти одинаковые
по сути
@@TheTimekeeper чем-то же должна быть обусловлена разница в цене более чем в 10 раз?
I have the blue dial of this watch, it's awesome.
Was looking at buying a preowned one until i watched this video, will not be doing that now
Scary out there with these clones.
