Tudor 925
I picked up a Tudor 925 to add to the collection. I am surprised how much I like the look and feel. The 925 silver is a beautiful warm white metal. The dial, bezel and leather strap are a sublime warm grey. Great size and proportions. One of the most comfy watches I own in a blended Rolex and Panerai collection.

Loving mine. However, a word of caution. The 925 Silver is not as tough as Stainless!!! I know, obvious. But my wife wore mine to work the other day (accounting, works at desk all day) and put some wicked scratches on it.

How do you even do this? That means she's hitting it on the sides.

Thx for the heads up. Will need to be careful as I guess it may not be easy to touch up.

Hehe, dare I say this was quite predictable and the wives are notoriously rough on watches...

I like the looks of the 925

Thx for the support. Definitely worth consideration if the 925 is of interest. Such an unique material. I also have a bronze w slate face BB. They make an cool pair.

Congrats on a nice pickup! I’m generally not the biggest Tudor fan, but I find this particular piece very charming and appealing. I would definitely own my first Tudor if my AD ever offered me one.

Congrats!! Tudor has a winning formula with their Black Bay 58. They've really done a great job designing and building this model line with their in-house movement, case design/proportions, and general dial design. The icing on the cake is their recent clasp update on the bronze model with the innovative "T" microadjustment, which I am very hopeful will be introduced to their stainless steel offerings.

Pictures do not do this watch justice
You don't see the light properly the way the dial
Hands and glass shines is amazing

She had a tennis bracelet on the same wrist. Was never a problem with any of her TT rolexes, so she didn't think twice until she was taking it off when she got home...she feels awful about it, but lesson learned. When it needs serviced years down the road, we'll have it buffed out. Such is life.

Looks great! But I'd be especially interested to see follow up shots from a year or two from now when patina sets in. I hope reality is as charming as it sounds.
