In a post from a few days ago, I noticed that someone mentioned that they were afraid to post about their dislike of the Tudor BB58 for fear of downvoting. You know what? The BB is a boring watch that’s not worth the money, and Tudor wouldn’t be half as popular as it is without the connection to Rolex. If Rolexes were as attainable as they were in past years, cut that by a factor of 10. Would you really buy a BB if the reality were that you could just save a little bit more and get a Rolex Submariner? That’s my hot take. What’s yours?
I don’t like color-matched date wheels. They’re always difficult to read, and it’s a cop-out toward placating fussy enthusiasts. I like a date with a white wheel that’s easy to read and framed prominently. It’s a useful feature; don’t try and hide it.
