Here is a comparison of the new Tudor Black Bay 58 Blue and the original Black Bay Fifty-Eight Black. These little sisters to the Rolex Submariner are very similar to each other, but also very different too. The Tudor Black Bay 58 Black has a very traditional, classic, classy feel to it, whereas the Tudor Black Bay 58 Blue feels more modern and sporty. Neither BB58 colours is better than the other, they are just different. I love them both.
These watches are the best luxury watches under £3000.

Thank you for pointing out the different metal colors of the two Tudor watches.
Being a watch collector like yourself. I just brought the Tudor black bay fifty eight in black. Also the black bay gmt. I am going to pick up the blue one today. Owning Rolex's and omega also. I can say Tudor did a amazing job. Making these watches.
I didn’t think there was much more to talk about this much hyped watch and then Adrian discovers the the steel!
Totally incredible discoveru
To be recorded in the annals of horology.
Agreed; very informative.
He's a tool
We can call it Adrian Steel now!
“Blue Bay” looks reserved, crisp and classic. That said,
Black Bay 58 Black is the BOSS!!!
Yeah, the Black is still the best.
And boring. Tried it and was unimpressed. It was on a blue fabric strap, so perhaps thats why. The steel would give it some punch, I assume.
"Black Bay 58 Black is the BOSS!!!"
"Yeah, the Black is still the best."
Let me guess... because you boys own one, right?
I own neither and black bb58 is much nicer
z00h Don’t own one yet , but gilt with red pops look dope!
It all seemed so simple: I wanted a black BB58. Everyone does. And it still looks better than the blue... Unless I look at the blue for too long. And then I start to question myself... Damn you, Tudor. Damn you all to hell!
They are both great and what ever you buy will be great.
The black bay 58 is gonna be my first big watch purchase and I just want one to wear everyday forever, so I think I'll go with the black since it's more versatile. The blue does looks stunning, both are a great choice
Same feeling !! Black looks great but the blue ... shit it is GREATTTTT
I recently pickup my BB58 Navy. It was a tough choice between the black and navy. Both are stunning, well priced and 100% wearable. I actually found the size of the standard BB range too large on the wrist. I landed on the navy based on how it felt on the day. Super happy with my purchase.
Tbh, I think you made the right call. I think they’re both GORGEOUS, but the Blue is next level.
I bought my Omega SM300 Heritage in blue, so I can’t see myself buying another diver in Blue, but I think it’s nicer than the Black, which by itself is truly stunning. I also really like the subtle differences in steel.
I echo Adrian here. I’d get the BB58 or an explorer as like a daily driver that goes with everything.
I also really don’t like the faux rivets on the BB58
Both. I'm of the mindset that Tudor absolutely hit a home run with their Black Bay Line. I really don't mind owning a few of them. This includes the 32/36/41 line as well. I already have the Black Bay Black. Will most certainly be picking up the Black Bay blue as well.
I have to give it to the OG version. It has that 50's submariner vibe and color scheme I like. And the gilt gives it a little .. something. To me the black is not only more versatile, but that gilt and hint of red also make it more exciting. But that is just personal.
As a proud owner of the OG I have to agree.
@@dirtyhipstergolf8412 I agreed. Same here.
@@dirtyhipstergolf8412 best watch i ever bought.
Agree
Just got mine for my first piece. I’m in love. I agree
2:20 so satisfying that the boys are synched up, thank you Adrian
Beauty in the eye of beholder, I will go for the navy blue.
Interesting point about the steel color - You're the first one to point it out. I really enjoyed this video ! Cheers man
I sold a 2016 Submariner 114060 and have been wearing a BB58 ( Black ) for last 7 months. No regrets. Fantastic looking watch. So much more character. Never get tired of looking at it. For the money it is the best watch I’ve owned.
I brought the black one approx a year ago, and never regretted it. It radiates a rich warmth, as well as good looks, and is still a talking point.
Love my original black BB58-its charm puts a smile on my face whenever I wear it after over 18 months. I’ll take a good at the steel tones when I get hands on. Not heard that from anywhere else. Enjoy your BB, I’m sure you will love it!
I love both of these, recently picked up the black fifty eight and currently waiting on a call for the blue fifty eight. Awesome video! 👍🏼
Did you get both in the end?
Adrian, you are a genius. It’s really that simple. 1) the steel color, 2) the comparison to the smurf. Wow.
Oh my, both the BBs with the mocha strap🤩🤩🤩
I got my blue BB58 from my AD last week, the day it was released. It's awesome and even more awesome considering the price vs. other pieces in my collection.
Great video. I’m a fan of the blue. Tried one on at the AD and was very impressed at how comfortable the watch it. Very smooth and rather understated, comparatively. That said: not fond of the black due to the vintage treatments of the faux patina and the dull gold. And, as much as I like the blue, thank you for calling out the snowflake hands. The Mercedes hands of a Rolex tool watch are hard to beat, but availability and at 1/2 the price I could maybe get used to them.
I got the blue last month and it's been my daily driver ever since. The blue goes with everything because it's not that smurf blue, its more subtle and classy. What a watch!
Just picked up my BB58 in Navy yesterday, and I'm in love! It was a difficult decision with the black version being so beautiful! But I don't find myself wearing gold often or dressing up much. I love that you showed the navy in various straps, I think I'll be getting a suede leather one soon! Just wish it had drilled lugs, the swapping process seems to look annoying....
Great comparison shots! I think they hit it out of the park with the blue but whenever the black comes back on the screen for me its a no brainer. So much presence and I just love the black/gilt accents with the red marker on the bezel. My 58 black is still my favorite in my collection! I agree the rivets are unnecessary and an odd choice, but also never think about them. I also don't think they look BAD.. just no point to them. The lume on the OG 58 is a bit darker but I personally hold off on calling it fauxtina (but maybe I'm in denial cuz I hate fauxtina?!)
The steel difference was really interesting, surely something you can only spot if you have them both in your hands. Great watches and video Adrian!
Great work on this video Adrien! This is the best one I've seen yet
Love my BB58 “ BLACK “.... I’m sure the “BLUE “ will make its mark too!👌🏼
I love both watches, and intend to buy the blue and keep the black. I don't like the faux rivet bracelet either, but find the snowflake hands fantastic. It is interesting that the stainless is a different color. Thank you very much for the comparison review!
The blue on the leather looked great, I didn’t expect that either. It works similarly to denim jeans and leather boots.
Wow this is a really good informative video. Blown away. And can’t unsee.
Great video shown different combinations of strap!🤩
THANK YOU! FINALLY someone else has mentioned how wide the handset is. Once you see the handset on the GMT you will not be able to unsee how clunky the regular black bay handset is
It really bugs me. 🙈
Came here to say this. I call it the "clown nose."
Bark and Jack I have the original black bay with the smiley face and rose on the dial. It kind of want to get rid of it now after getting the GMT.
My head says that I have to have the blue, I have too many black dial watches already....
But my heart still says black all day long. Its just warmer and less sterile.
Same
Go Green, get the Harrods edition.
Sterile is the perfect adjective for the blue.
“Too many black dial watches already” You’re obviously a watch collector which makes it even harder to believe you haven’t added a blue to your collection. I can’t believe also, that you haven’t got one of the beautiful blue based Omega Seamasters
you made the right choice, Adrian! you've been in love with the original BB58 for quite a while. great review!
Another great video Adrian. I think you’re the only guy in watch media that has mentioned anything about the steel color!
Thanks for watching mate. 👍🏻
I was never a big fan of the black bay 58 until I saw this video. There’s just something about the blue dial to me and it all just clicked. Fantastic camera work and lighting as usual. I will definitely be adding this watch to my collection in the future.
I agree !
The black is warmer, classical lookin'....the blue has a sportier, summery vibe.
Great video, to me it was more dynamic than most of your other videos, keep improving! Well done.
I started following your channel just a few weeks ago and I'm really enjoying your content. Great work mate!
Thanks so much Nicolás. 👍🏻
Love the mocha strap on it! Just ordered it for my BB58 Blue!
Thanks buddy. 🙌🏻
I love it, the blue looks so great. I just wish it had the option for a date window.
Adrian, you are amazingly perceptive. I’ve had both, and never noticed the steel difference. Now that you point it out, I can tell every time. Kudos!
Superb comparison. Just picked up my new watch yesterday but already want that Blue 58!
OG Black version all day, every day.
Excellent, excellent review.
Hello from France , This week i bought my first Tudor. A bb58 in ... blue. I love this color. But yes the original is beautiful ! Cheers !
Superb video as usual and I got my hands on my 58 Black last weekend. Absolutely love it 😊
Congrats mate. They are amazing watches. 👍🏻
Looking at your video Adrian I guess I made the right choice, I own both !! They complement each other very well.
I went for the BB36 over the 58 because I felt it had more versatility. Your love for the explorer 36mm 100% inspired me too, although sometimes I do miss the dive bezel. Great video as always! Will the new straps be coming in 19mm?
Your video helps me to make decision which watch to get, thanks mate.
I've now got both with no regrets! Superb watches with a sensible price point
I have both:- the Rolex Smurf and the BB 58 Blue and I must agree with you, the BB 58 Blue is a better looking watch.
The Navy Bay is my favorite Tudor release. They finally got the proportions and color right for my taste. I still need to see it in the metal to confirm. They should have removed the rivets from the bracelet and added an adjustable clasp thus paving the way for more modern Black Bay 58’s after giving a nod to the past by making the black/gilt/fauxtina/rivet version. At least that’s what I thought they should do.
Your best video in a long time!
Great video! Do you have plan doing a hands on with the new seiko divers? Spb143, etc
I very recently bought the Black Bay 58 Navy Blue on the steel bracelet to compliment a range of predominantly black-dialled watches in my collection that include the classic Rolex Submariner Date 16610 that I've owned for 19 yrs. The Tudor is a super, very well-made luxury timepiece and I appreciate its rather understated blue dial and bezel compared to the 'bling-blue' ceramic of my Omega Seamaster 300. Like-for-like think of the Blue 58 as a more modern take on its original black and gilt sibling. The blue really pops in daylight or in well-lit rooms and a pleasure to wear. Although not quite up there with the Rolex Sub in the absolute quality stakes - but why should it when barely 35% of the retail price - go to an AD and try one on. In-house COSC certified movement, 70 hrs power reserve, staggering lume.... you won't be disappointed.
BBB58 makes me imagine I’m wearing a sub smurf but I can actually afford it. It gets me all warm and fuzzy inside 🥰
I have thought about buying the BB58 blue but wanted to wait until the hype calms down, that said I can see why it's in so much demand, it just looks fantastic. The BB58 black looks great also so it's a hard choice to pick between the two. Great video Adrian 👌🏻
Just realised after all the videos I've watched of yours I wasn't subscribed IM NOW👌👌👌👌
Awesome looking together - what a pair - the change in steel tone is such a nice touch by Tudor. The Blue Bay is true to its history - and Wilsdorfs Tudor philosophy , high tec, great build , great price , and made available to its clients and fans . You have to love the idea and purpose of the alpha macho diver design tool hands from the past or else the piece loses much of its meaning. Tudor making the piece obtainable is to be applauded. Definitely a cool piece. Truly great observations.
Blue for me. The occasion needs to suit my blue watch. In other words, I don’t give a f about occasions.
Your videos are nothing but watch rants and I love it 😂 Superb footage btw 👌🏻
Haha. Thanks mate. 🍻
Great videos. Loved it and keep it up!
All the info I have read about the 58 Blue, nobody has mentioned the colour of the steel against the Black version (for those who have seen both together)
Hi Adrian , great observations.
I would like a blue watch to add to my collection but I also would like an Omega .
How does the 58 blue stack up against the blue sea master .
Both contenders to be my next watch among some others . I’d love your input , cheers
Best BlackBay 58 video on the net so far!! Love it Adrian your points are logical and accurate. I still love the black one, more versatile
I am sure my reason for my choice between the blue vs black will be unique, but I guess that is what makes watch collecting a very personal and unique experience. My choice would be the blue and my reason would be the lighter color of the steel. I didn't realize this as the reason until after this video and then it became crystal clear.
Great content, keep up the great work!
Disgusted that Tudor didn't consult Adrian on strap option before launching this
To be fair to them, they did apologise and will be consulting me befor future launches.
Bark and Jack good on you, a force in the industry.
I would go for "Blue Bay 58" since I have too many black watches.
I agree with Adrian, it's not like bright blue like "Smurf", looks very quite and versatile.
It doesn't scream at ppl's faces "Look at my fking watch!!!!!"
Great review of two modern classics - I have Tudor gmt and BBR so added baby smurf to collection - love it on NATO !
Great review as always.
The Blue is just so damn good!!!
Can you do a video of black bay 58 blue vs black bay heritage navy
Adrian, I just wanted say this video helped me choose the right watch. I’ve watched this at least 4/5 times. Your videos are so helpful and informative. I went for the BB58 Black btw. I feel it’s more versatile, still classy, perfect for work/meetings and events. So happy with it. Best purchase ever!!!
Any issues with it? I’m planning on getting the black version but trying to research it thoroughly before committing to it.
@@Ferien7 nah no issues at all. Just go for it, it’s such a special watch!!
Great comparison video. Both great watches. Black & Gold is always a nice classic combination. I think the snowflake hands are a great alternative to Mercedes. Anyway all great points to consider. Thank you Adrian.
This video is a strong argument for only judging a watch once in your hands, photos are simply not enough. Adrien confirms this, having a very different opinion from last week once he’s actually handled the blue bay.
I prefer black watches but the gold, faux lume and red pip marker are a deal breaker. If Tudor make a black version with white gold and white lume like the blue has I’m definitely interested
That blue looks amazing on the mocha strap!!
I've got the black version and it is by far, my favourite watch in the collection. It's currently my everyday-er.
Thinking about getting a nice tan Monaco strap for it as well.
I watch this video at least once a week … maybe I will slow down with that once I pull the trigger on one of these. Great video my man! …its going to be the black one. I’m certain of that. Maybe.
Haha thanks a lot mate. They are great watches.
2 years later. Finally pulled the trigger on the black bay … I went with Blue. But … I had to watch the video again. 😂
Really interesting question about the steel - i cant confirm or deny your impressions on these watches BUT I definately think you are on to something I've been trying to research. 316L steel is a surprising wide catagory with potentially large physical and aesthetic differences between cheap/expensive and just different steel that you can see between watches.
Picked up the BB 41 blue (in house) a couple years ago, and I love it. I've got a big wrist though. Just pulled the trigger on a BB 58 black yesterday. Not sure if I'm going to wear it yet (wrist size), but I honestly think I could sell it at any time going forward and not lose a dime.
In love with your new nato straps, especially the black&blue one. And the green one would be perfect for my 5508 ! CAN'T WAIT
Fantastic video! I think I'm going to go with the black as I have the Tudor GMT already so I feel the blue is more sporty and similar to the GMT. I love the vintage look of the black!
Love my GMT. The 58s are a great release, but a bit small for me (whereas GMT is my sweet spot).
@@mkyhou1160 heritage for me sit, agreed 39 is also too small for me 👍
It would definitely be blue for me. On that note, what paint did you use for your back wall?
I'm guessing Farrow & Ball Stiffkey Blue
Great presentation as always, thank you.
Point on the colour of the steel was a good tip as I already have BB 58 black and was thinking of getting the blue one on a strap and just swap the bracelet between the two if I fancy wearing them with one rather than leather straps (personal preference). Obviously that's not going to work so once the hype dies down a bit and I get around to buying one will be getting it on a bracelet.
Thanks 👍
I got the BB 58 black, and I love it!!! its gorgeous! Great review!
but how long is the wait going to be to get one in the "correct" price though?
A long time, Rolex marketing.
I’ve got my first luxury watch today a Tudor gmt love it.
Congrats mate. And great choice. 🙌🏻
Yay... finally an objective review. I love both and am lucky to have both even though the black on is on the Nato. One thing the blue has over the black, it is easier to read without my glasses on. great vid. The new backdrops, shelves, lens props are very cool.
Great review. Tudor is killing it, while these two are a little small for me (love my GMT), they are perfect for so many guys. I prefer the blue (don’t like Fauxtina lume the black, like the rivets though).
Blue Bay with blue steel.
And complete it with ...
Zoolander’s “Blue Steel” 😗
I reckon that should be the official nickname haha
My favourite is the Blue One :) I think it’s more timeless than the Black one...there are just too Many Gold accents on the Black one 🙈 looks strange in combination with stainless steel 😅
Adrian, great vid! But did you buy the BB58? It wasn't in your SOTC video. I also peep that new GS you are wearing as well?
Great video. Thanks.
“No watch it’s perfect ....”. As he sits with an explorer 1 on his wrist. Sir, you have perfection already.
Totally agree with this!
the bracelet's pretty janky tho by today's standard.
.. and then there is me: I bought the Black Bay GMT today :D
Bravo! The BB GMT is a terrific piece. The wrist presence is superb and perfectly satisfies my travel / tool watch needs. Enjoy!
Hope the date doesn’t go wrong for you 🙈
Great choice, as well ! I'd love myself all of them :D
My wrist too small for a gmt
Didn't like mine at first. Now I love it
Adrian the explorer. Finding out things I didn't know but probably should have.
Can't wait to see both in person!
Great video Adrian. If only we could see them next to each other at an AD to see all the differences in the flesh.
When did you buy the BB58 black?! Congrats 🎊 I guess I missed it....
Think he just announced on Instagram and not any other platform yet
Probably after selling his Grand Seiko quartz?
I haven't had a chance to do a video on it. But it will be coming. 👍🏻
For the price of a Submariner, I can buy them both!
I think you can buy 3
Probably 4 lol
Enjoyed the video. Your the first (and only) review to pick up on the colour difference, a difference that suits both dial colours perfectly I think.
Both watches look great, I have a black 58 so I`m a little biased but I think the black pips it for me.
If the blue had snowflake indices (like the `69 original) then it would maybe a different matter.
Keep up the good work!
You had a pat on the back for noticing the steel colour differences on bb58 by uptick watch reviews. I gotta say your the first to notice and I would never have believed it. 👍🏻🏴
