Had to chime in because I just realized what I love about this watch. It is super CLEAN. No clutter, not busy, not flashy...just clean and to the point. Great looking black bays everyone! I may be in the market now!

Has anyone messed around with putting an after market jubilee bracelet on their Tudor BB?

I'm thinking this straight-end jubilee would look pretty slick:

Still enjoying old blue here, but patiently waiting for a black to appear in Canada.

Yesterday I had to pry it off my wrist for the first time in the two weeks since I got it, and wore my BLNR. Honestly if I had to pick one or the other as my only watch the BBB would win, not even close! I'm hoping Tudor drops their new movement in the BBB, because I'll be the first in line for one.

I'm surprised some members share how i feel with the my BB... i honestly like this better compared to my SDc and SubC... less shiny... cheaper and hugs my wrist better... sold all my rolex and never looked back.... but if ever I'm in the market for another rolex... it will be the explorer 39mm for sure...

I got my bbb a while back.
I loved it before I bought it (as in pictures).
Then I hated what seemed to be ridiculously long lugs.
Then I bought my subc.
That somehow made me fall in love with bbb again. Maybe I made a mistake with subc.
Explorer you say? Why?

i love the explorer... i had one before but flipped it.. as its too expensive for me.. i don't enjoy using it as i tend to baby the watch... its like the watch is wearing me...

BUT i love the way it looks... not to shiny... perfect size... no date.. and brushed finish... its super comfortable also....

Had the chance to also own subCND and SDC4 but i find it too shiny... the only time i like it when the ceramic bezel reflects the light and turns into grey/silver shade....

i also love the chamfered lugs of my BBB and easy to mix and match with diff types of bracelet...

Thanks for sharing that. I agree subc is way too shiny.
As for chamfering, you're probably the first person who described the bb's edge finishing correctly as most people describe it as bevelling (although towards the horizontal axis between 3 and 9, one could argue chamfering (3sides in section cut) tends toward bevelling (2 sides).

Rolex makes many watches with black (dark blue is close to black as well) but there is nothing else that come close to the red insert. It is just a phenomenal combination with the gilt and chocolate dial. Beautiful watches!!!

I keep leaning toward the Black Bay Black, but not gonna lie, shots like this make me consider the Red more (especially since I already have a 14060M). So much more personality and character in the Red over the Black.

Great shots chaps

I love my Red black bay and have ordered one of the those nice leather straps for it. Finally found a UK based eBay seller of them, now just need to summon the courage to remove the braclelet

Thanks, just make sure you use masking tape on the lugs. I was clumsy/heavy handed when I first changed the strap with a cheap spring bar on my Breitling but I have since purchased a Bergeon 6767f tool and it works a treat on the BB and GMT.

Since i have put the Colareb strap on the BB, I haven't changed it, it feels and looks great.

The link is removable certainly but it is solid and can't be used with a rubber strap; It can be re-installed without issue if that is what you mean.

Check the rubber NATO, there is a thread on this strap and everyone seems to love it.
