Awesome incoming.

When I got this watch, a little bit unsure about the fake rivets on the bracelet, as wearing it often, now it has grown on me and do not mind that its there.

Good choice. Besides mine over the last 2 years I have seen one other, however this weekend at a local music festival I saw 4.

Congratulations on one of the finest daily watches ever made. As someone who once owned a BB58 Navy, sold it, and missed it so much I had to buy it back, I will say don't sell it!

Had it over a year now, it’s my only watch and I’m perfectly happy that way. Doesn’t hurt that mine has run consistently within 1/2 second per day or better the entire time.

Congrats on a great purchase, I really don’t think there is a better value out there if the aesthetic appeals to you.

Insanely accurate. Mine is only ever off by +1. Often it is at 0 on the Timegrapher. Yes, as an avid collector, I have my own…..

It’s great. Fits well for me. Used to wear a titanium Citizen watch when I was in school. So, took a little getting used to the weight. I had the conversation with my wife, that I don’t think I’d ever go any smaller. For instance, I’ve always wondered if I could rock a 36 mm DateJust or Explorer but now I know I’m probably better off with 41 mm in those Rolex models. Very impressed with Tudor BB58 after a couple weeks!

Now gonna explore some new straps!

Yep - this looks a good size on you.

(And thanks - I keep looking at the navy and wondered if owning this one really would be as good as it looks! Good to get a perspective from a fresh owner.)

I watched a YouTube video about how to hack the clasp, in order to make it sit where it should. I also added an Uncle Seiko half link, which gave me a better fit. I did these things,myself. It was an easy fix. For reference, my wrist is approximately 6 1/2 inches. I hope this helps.
