SOLD – Black Bay Fifty-Eight 925 79010SG

The Tudor Black Bay is one of Tudor’s most iconic watch lines, launched in 2012 as part of the brand’s effort to return to its roots as a producer of robust, high-quality dive watches. Drawing heavily on Tudor’s historical models from the 1950s and 1960s, particularly the Tudor Submariner, the Black Bay series captures vintage aesthetics with modern craftsmanship.

The original Black Bay featured signature design elements like a large unprotected crown and snowflake hands, both nods to Tudor’s early dive watches worn by professional divers, including the French Navy. Powered initially by ETA movements, Tudor later transitioned to in-house calibers like the MT5602, known for their durability and precision.

The Black Bay’s success lies in its combination of timeless design and technical excellence, with various models, including GMT, Chronograph, and Fifty-Eight versions, making it a favorite among collectors and diving enthusiasts alike.
