So I didnt plan on buying this watch, I was after a Hamilton Field Khaki Titanium and I bought this instead. You could say the AD up sold (which I guess they did) but I got a fantastic deal - enough to buy the Hamilton and more for the difference, which promptly got sold a few months later - this Tudor is still with me.
So back to this BB58 (SS 925) I love its size and how comfy it is on the wrist. Also its so clear too. I'm looking forward to how the silver will tarnish too. I've got various metals on my watch collection and so letting this sterling silver one go will be great to see - it is slowly changing BTW. It's too easy just to have just shiny and/brushed metal watches. It's easy enough to get some silver cleaner to bring it back to factory should I want to - that's a nice touch IMO.
The silk strap, although nice wasn't really for me, so I went out and go a leather and the correct SS buckle, and it really makes it feel far more dressy. I've kept the silk one as I may come back round to it but for the time being it's safely away with the box.
I've also tried it on a dark green rubber strap which I think goes well with it, and maybe I'll save that for the beach.
Lovely watch and one I plan to keep for many years
