Collected a Black Bay Pro last night…

[Scotboy]

I was lucky enough to be offered a Black Bay Pro on bracelet by a local AD I have a good relationship with. Collected it last night so have taken a few daylight pics today.

Going to a 39mm size is unusual for me (even with a 6.75” wrist!) but I must say that it feels great on the wrist and not too small in any way. Yes, it has a decent height to it but I actually like that for what is essentially a tool watch.

The cream coloured hour markers, hands and date wheel are gorgeous, and the bezel markings are crisp on the brushed steel surface.

I also love the new crown that screws right up to the case now (no elongated tube) and has deeper groves for a better grip.

The bracelet is beautifully finished as you’d expect and the new clasp with sliding micro-adjustment is a superb addition.

All in all, I’m very impressed and delighted with this new addition to my collection.

Hope you enjoy the pics!

Congratulations really liking the look of it- enjoy

Congratulations. That looks superb. The bracelet and clasp are fantastic. The dimensions look spot on too. The 16660 Seadweller and models after were always a little too heavy, but for a tool watch it works. Wear in good health

I think this is a really superb piece and the best modern Tudor made yet.

It addresses pretty much everything that’s put me off buying a Black Bay before now - no aluminium bezel insert to worry about, and (finally!) a decent micro-adjust clasp. I also think much of the thickness is taken up in the crystal, so I don’t think that’ll be as much of a problem as many think. Even the faux patina lume doesn’t strike me as overdone. I think it looks like a superb piece overall.

To be honest, this is more what I’d hoped the… ahem…“new” Explorer II from last year would’ve looked like.

Great watch. I can't believe I can't get one of these at a AD and will likely have to go grey for a freaking Tudor.

I’m sure they’ll be as available as every other Tudor is in a little while. I remember the BB GMT was a waitlist piece for a while and now you see multiple examples in AD windows. Just depends if can be patient or not.
