Catalogue Essay
- When Tudor released their first dive watch back in 1954, it came in the form of the Submariner ref. 7923. This groundbreaking watch offered superior legibility and water resistance for diving, all packaged in a perfectly sized 39mm case.

- Fast forward to 2018, and Tudor pays homage to that iconic first model with the Black Bay 58. Flawlessly merging retro appeal with contemporary finesse, this watch may feature design cues from its 1950s predecessor - including the 39mm steel case, domed crystal and snowflake hands - but inside beats Tudor's own in-house movement, cal. MT5402, introduced simultaneously with the watch.

- The sleek matte blue dial and matching anodized aluminium bezel channel a mood of crisp modernity. Like the ice caps of the year that inspired its name, the Black Bay 58 conceals a fiery heart beneath a cool exterior.

- With its smaller size and manufacture movement tailored to fit, the Black Bay 58 forges an intimate bond between the watch and its wearer. Simultaneously nostalgic and forward-facing, the present timepiece offered in “like-new” condition with its full set of accessories is a reimagining of an icon that remains faithful to Tudor's origins while reinventing them for a new generation.

Tudor

Swiss | 1926
Almost twenty years after Rolex was founded, Hans Wilsdorf established Tudor with the intention of making more affordable watches without compromising the quality for which Rolex was renowned. Tudor was named after the British Dynasty that ruled England from 1485 to 1603, and their symbol came from the "War of Roses." After interchanging Rose and Shield symbols for a number of years, the firm replaced the Rose with the Shield logo from the 1960s until today.

Some of the most recognized vintage models made by Tudor include the Submariner, a waterproof model first introduced in 1954, the Oysterdate, the earliest versions of which were nicknamed the "Monte-Carlo," the Heritage, which included the date at 6 o'clock, as well as the Pelagos, which translates to "deep sea" in Greek.
