2022 Tudor Black Bay 58 79030N 39mm with JB jubilee bracelet $3,600.00 CAD. 505-00536

Tudor has finally released a Black Bay 58 on a Jubilee style bracelet as a new model for 2025. Currently, if you want a Black Bay 58 on a jubilee bracelet you can only get one with a bright fuchsia dial and bezel for $5,770.00. This 2022 estate watch is not that model. We’ve always thought the slightly small dimensions of the BB58 would be perfect on the more flexible and slightly dressier jubilee style bracelet. The previous owner of this watch took matters into his own hands and assembled the model he wanted but Tudor never made. He took delivery in April of 2022 with the brown leather strap on the popular black dial/black bezel BB58 79030N and immediately replaced the strap with this high quality JB jubilee stainless steel bracelet from Forstner. While this bracelet doesn’t add a lot of cost ($180.00 USD) is does add a lot of extra value, utility, and versatility to standard issue watch. The fit and finish while not quite a nice as a Tudor original, but it is much nicer than many OEM bracelets from rival companies. The adjustable links are secured by properly threaded screws, with far more machined threads than we typically see even on original Tudor bracelets! The end links are solid sections that fit the unique contour of the case and fit the spring bar lug holes perfectly.  The buckle is a locking design requiring both side buttons to be pushed before releasing the clasp. There are enough adjustable links to fit a wrist of over 8 1/2 inches in circumference. The rest of the watch is standard off the shelf Black Bay 58. These watches are some of the best values on the secondary market now that prices have settled. These Black Bay series offer features normally reserved for watches costing several multiples more. The in house MT5602 manufactured 25 jewel automatic Swiss-made movement is keeping excellent time. This proprietary chronometer rated mechanism comes standard with an extended 70-hour extended power reserve. In the past, Tudor watches used movements made by other companies. The MT5602 is the first mechanism developed and manufactured by Tudor for use in their watches. The watch remains in original condition, it has never been polished or refinished. It shows small scuffs, scratches on the case and bracelet. There are a few small impact marks on the sharp edged bevels but nothing significant. The factory 5-year Tudor warranty will cover the new owner until the spring of 2027. Comes complete with the like new original Tudor leather strap with locking deployment buckle, all documents, endorsed warranty card, paper hang tag, and inner/outer boxes. Estate priced at $3,600.00 CAD. Stock #505-00536.
