2020 Tudor Black Bay 58 Blue on Bracelet 79030B

This 2020 Tudor Black Bay 58 Blue on Bracelet 79030B version pays tribute to its first divers; introduced in 1958, the Ref 7924 had a 39mm case and a big crown that achieved 200m water resistance. It has a 39mm stainless steel case with polished and satin finishes, a lug-to-lug length of 47.5mm and a case thickness of 12mm, giving the watch an impressive wrist presence. A screw-down signed crown, unidirectional dive bezel with 60 min numerals on a matte blue Aluminium insert. Domed sapphire crystal AR coated protects a matte blue dial, applied pips and baton hour markers are coated in Super LumiNova, and snowflake hands have lume. 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 70-hour power reserve. It comes paired with its Tudor 20mm stainless steel Oyster bracelet with a signed clasp and comes with its Tudor presentation box and papers.

This watch is sold with its original Tudor box and paperwork. The watch comes paired with its original 20mm Tudor Oyster stainless steel bracelet secured by a signed clasp, and all links are included. The watch is from August 2020 and is sold in worn but good condition and is still stickered as you can see. The watch comes with our 12-Months Warranty.

I suspect this is one of my most sold references, with great reason too! Beautifully designed and proportioned for the wrist, built like a tank with a truly great in-house movement. All of that is priced for what they are, even at retail I stand by the watch, so when they are priced like this pre-owned I can't help but think it's one of THE best dive watches in this price range, and this example is lightly worn with all its sticker still on, so one well worth snapping up today!

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 advertisement. 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.
