Black Bay

Hello,

I’m curious to know what the majority here would prefer.

The BB58
Or
Black Bay Harrods edition.

I’m aware of the differences, but am interested in finding out what the general consensus is?

Thanks

I prefer the BB58 over any 41mm Black Bay, it's just more comfortable.

I went Harrods myself. Love the green. 58 is nice, but I imagine there are also more of those floating around than the Harrods edition. I don't think you can go wrong with either, though.

You might've gotten more responses if you used the poll option instead. If there was also a Black Bay Fifty-Eight in the same Harrods Special Edition design, I'd pick it over the 41mm Heritage Black Bay. Regardless, the warm and unconventional gold, green, and black colour scheme works harmoniously and the unique edition numbering is worthy of a hunt.

Had both. Love the harrods colour way. But in the end the 41mm case is too tall and the 22mm bracelet too wide. Ground me down. The blue bb58 is spectacular. I have also had a vintage sub 76100 and the blue bb58 feel like a true modern equivalent. Awesome.

Yeah I didn’t know how to set up the poll...

Love the size of the 58 but the Harrod's takes the cake for me with this. I personally like the green bezel and subtle touches on the dial. Eagerly anticipating my spot in line which should becoming up quickly.
