2020 Tudor Black Bay 58 Black on Bracelet 39mm 79030N

Here we have a 2020 Tudor Black Bay 58 Black on Bracelet 79030N that pays tribute to their first divers; introduced in 1958, the Ref 7924 had a 39mm case and a big crown that achieved 200m water resistance, which was some achievement back then. A 39mm stainless steel case features polished and satin finishes, with the curve of the case tapering towards the lugs. The lug-to-lug length measures 47.5mm, and the case thickness is 12mm, providing the watch with an impressive wrist presence. On the right side is a screw-down signed crown, unidirectional dive bezel with 60-minute numerals on a matte black aluminium insert; at 12 o’clock, we have the characteristic red inverted triangle and lume pip. A domed sapphire crystal AR-coated protects a matte black dial, a gold-toned minute track is precisely executed with applied gold-toned disc and baton hour markers coated in Super LumiNova, and gold-toned Snowflake hands are coated in Super-LumiNova, complemented by a gold-toned Snowflake counterbalance sweeping second hand. The warm tones of the dial, indexes and hands add a vintage aesthetic to this distinctive dive watch. On the reverse, a coin-edged screw-down case back, inside we have their in-house automatic Calibre MT5402 (COSC) Certified Chronometer, 25 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour and a bidirectional rotor system that provides a very impressive power reserve. The watch comes paired with its original 20mm Tudor stainless steel Oyster bracelet, a simulated rivet-style bracelet that utilises screws to remove the links, featuring a signed folding clasp; all links are included, and the watch comes with its Tudor presentation box, swing tag and paperwork.

Swiss watchmaking company “Veuve de Philippe Hüther” on behalf of Hans Wilsdorf the founder of Rolex watches first registered in 1926 The Tudor trademark. Wilsdorf took it over himself in 1936. Soon after the second world war, Hans Wilsdorf who founded Rolex knew that it was time for Tudor to have a proper identity of its own. The Tudor Rose started to appear on their dials from this moment. On 6 March 1946, he created the “Montres TUDOR S.A.” company, creating watches for both men and women. Rolex guaranteed the overall design aesthetic, as well as distribution and after-sales service. In 1948 we saw the first Tudor-specific advertising. A few years later they introduced the TUDOR Oyster Prince in 1952. Hans Wilsdorf allowed Tudor to use their waterproof Oyster case and the original self-winding Perpetual ’rotor’ movement. This was an exclusive arrangement that benefitted both brands. Development soon commenced with the introduction of the TUDOR Oyster Prince Submariner, reference 7922 in 1954. This watch was quickly adopted by the French Navy in 1956. Building on their reputation of robustness in 1961 the Rose was replaced by the shield. Later in 1969, we saw the design changes in Ref. 7016 where for the first time square indexes and angular hands nicknamed “snowflake” allowed for a greater amount of lume to be applied; this was appreciated by the divers of the French Navy. Today these innovations can be seen in the Black Bay and Pelagos collections. In 1971 Tudor introduced the Oysterdate chronographs nicknamed “Monte-Carlo” due to their resembling a roulette wheel. Celebrating their 50th anniversary in 1996. In that same year, Tudor decided to shed Rolex signed components such as the cases, crowns and bracelets in favour of Tudor branded ones. Today Tudor uses their in-house movements developed initially in 2015 in collaboration with Breitling.
