I would have like to see the BLACK BAY FIFTY-EIGHT 925 on a bracelet instead of a strap, but I love the Taupe color.

GolfJunkie · 7 April 2021, 10:16 PM

How many people are going to stop complaining about the snowflake hands on the chrono now.

JohnGingerwood · 7 April 2021, 10:18 PM

Nailed it with the chrono.

Black dial chrono on bracelet for me

Prefer the extra contrast from the matte black dial

Really really nice. Ordered one.

New chrono's do look pretty nice.

arcentaur · 8 April 2021, 01:31 AM

BB58 without the bracelet? OMG, how can people complain about the faux rivets now? Oh wait, they’re on the chronos.

Wcdhtwn · 8 April 2021, 01:36 AM

I don't know that much about Tudors... are the bezels on the chrono's ceramic? Or just made to look that way?

No, traditional aluminum inserts.

Tudor pushing the envelope in a positive way IMHO. That’s why I have the BB Bronze Black as it is unique and looks great.

herefortheattachment · 8 April 2021, 02:34 PM

Looks phenomenal but I wish the Black Bay chrono had a 60 min register. I know it’s tradition to have the 45 minute register, but a 60 min one is so much more practical.

It would be my dream watch if they could make it a little thinner and change the registers 60 minutes and 12 hours, (replace the running seconds).

TimeAZ · 8 April 2021, 03:01 PM

Can someone please explain the appeal of this Black Bay Chrono to me??

It's not a good dive watch (small markers, no rotating bezel, no lume pip, seems like dial legibility would be poor under water), so why does it need 200m water resist? It's not a good chronograph, since it can only track elapsed time to 45 minutes, and the snowflake hour hand can actually obscure the minute-hand register on the one chrono dial it has. The panda version looks like it's going to be really hard to read the time, the hands blend in with the dial even worse than a Daytona.

Meanwhile, it's still too thick.

The movement seems alright enough, but honestly I'd much prefer 3 subdials that are more classic and practical for a chrono, and no date needed....

Santiago32 · 8 April 2021, 03:09 PM

How thick is the BB Chrono? Looks similar to the BB GMT but I could be wrong

14.4mm - compared to the 15mm of the tudor gmt

Likestheshiny · 8 April 2021, 03:27 PM

All I really wanted from Tudor is a burgundy BB58. Seems like a no-brainer, given that it would literally be just a new insert for the bezel. *sigh*

(I would have also happily bought a BB58 S&G with a champagne dial, but I never really expected that to happen.)

Thanks! A bit thick but I’d have to see it on the wrist.

SS Oyster · 8 April 2021, 05:35 PM

Stunningly ugly! A silver watch that comes brushed so you can’t polish it. A gold watch on a sport strap - both of them too small and with ugly snowflake hands.

The BB Chronos with only two subdials and ugly snowflake hands.

Black face = white hands

White face = white hands

Not sure the white will be easy to read
