Tudor Black Bay 58 automatic burgundy dial five-link steel bracelet 39 mm

A reinvented watchmaking heritage

The Tudor Black Bay 58 takes its name from the year in which the first TUDOR divers' watch waterproof to 200 meters (660 ft), reference 7924, nicknamed “Big Crown”, was introduced. With its 39 mm steel case, the Black Bay 58 retains the historic proportions that emerged at the end of the 1950s. This new version is fully in line with the brand's iconic aesthetic, while incorporating distinctive elements of a TUDOR prototype from the 1990s, reference 79190. This prototype, never produced at the time, was characterized by a burgundy dial with a satin finish and a matching bezel. Today, this heritage is revived through this new Black Bay 58, while bringing modern improvements and Master Chronometer certified performance. The watch is thus fully assembled and tested by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS), guaranteeing some of the highest watchmaking standards.

A timeless and elegant look

The Black Bay 58 Bordeaux is immediately recognizable by its slightly domed sunburst satin-brushed dial, which captures the light with a subtle brilliance. The burgundy color, a tribute to historic Tudor models, is enhanced by elegant silver touches and the iconic “Snowflake” hands, which appeared in 1969. The unidirectional rotating bezel in steel, with its burgundy anodized aluminum disc, adds a touch of assertive character. The lollipop-shaped seconds hand recalls the brand's first diving watches, while the crown, adorned with the embossed Tudor rose, harmoniously completes the ensemble.

An exceptional caliber certified by METAS

At the heart of this watch beats the Manufacture caliber MT5400-U, a bidirectional automatic mechanical movement with rotor winding. This caliber offers an impressive 65-hour power reserve and is certified as a Master Chronometer by METAS, guaranteeing precision and robustness. Thanks to its silicon balance spring, it is highly resistant to magnetic fields up to 15,000 gauss, thus meeting the strictest watchmaking standards. Its exceptional precision varies from 0 to +5 seconds per day, surpassing the COSC requirements (-4/+6). Water resistant to 200 meters, the Black Bay 58 is designed to face the most demanding environments without compromising its elegant look.

A comfortable and adjustable strap

The Black Bay 58 Bordeaux is available with a five-link steel bracelet that combines robustness and comfort. Fitted with the Tudor “T-fit” clasp, this bracelet can be adjusted precisely and rapidly in five pre-set positions, without the need for tools. This ingenious system ensures optimal comfort throughout the day, while also conferring a touch of modern elegance. For those looking for a more retro style, the watch is also available with a three-link “rivet-style” bracelet or in black rubber, each also equipped with the “T-fit” clasp.

The Tudor Black Bay 58 Bordeaux is much more than a watch, it is a true icon of watchmaking that combines heritage, performance and modernity. Whether you are a diving enthusiast or a watchmaking aficionado, it embodies the bold and timeless spirit of Tudor.
