Do you like the Tudor Black Bay 58 bracelet?

Hi Crunchers!

I like the bracelet that came with the BB58 but was thinking of changing it to make the watch feel ‘new’ again. I usually swap it with a NATOs and the original bracelet.

Do any BB58 owners here have it on other type of bracelets / straps that you wear your BB58 mostly on? Don’t get me wrong, I like the original bracelet but just thinking of an alternative bracelet. I’m thinking of the Uncle President bracelet shown below.

Not sure if this suits the vintage look of the BB58 or should I just stick to the original bracelet it came on?

Any suggestions?

Thanks & Have a great week ahead Crunchers!

Imo it looks great on the president bracelet but our opinion should be irrelevant to you 😃. You should wear it on whatewer looks good for you.👍

I’m more than OK with the original bracelet. If I need change I have a leather strap for the BB58.

Both are fine, but I like the president bracelet more tbh

It looks great on the President and also on a jubilee.

I have a blue BB58 and it lives on a rubber strap!

That leather looks great with the 58! Really enhances that vintage look 🔥

An aftermarket rubber strap or OEM Tudor? I’m also on a lookout for a rubber strap for the BB58.

That’s true but sometimes a few more eyes can help me with my decision making 😅

Big fan of the bracelet, though wish it came with the new T-fit clasp. I think getting a second bracelet is a fantastic idea - ability to transform the watch you already love for a bit of a change. Though I have no personal experience, I think the Forstner bullet bracelet is pretty cool/unique. Also think the president bracelet is awesome - never hurts to have options! 👍

It’s aftermarket. I bought from Vanguard straps. Fits perfectly although on the pricey side.

I barely wore my BB58 on the factory bracelet while I owned it because I was never able to get a proper fit with the bracelet. I ended up switching the watch to leather strap after a week and it stayed on it until I sold the watch. I never had aftermarket options for the BB58 bracelet a year and half ago. Good to see more options now.

Uncleseiko jubilee bracelet (choose the double button milled clasp if you are buying with clasp) looks really nice with the BB58. I loved the look of the Jubilee bracelet on the BB after I saw it on the new red 41mm models, suits the vintage aesthetics.

i prefer the bb58 on an erikas original mn strap. dunno but imo the bracelet looks too sterile for this watch and the parachute strap gives it a more casual and historic looking marine national vibe 🤙

Don’t own one just yet 😭

Awesome post! 🤩

Thank you for sharing this with us

Keep up the good work 🙌🏾

A leather strap or a Jubilee styled (5 link) bracelet will look nice.

I have mine on a black sailcloth with the gilt stitching to match from Strapify. Gives it that leather look, keeps it water resistant and as it's a two piece strap it doesn't add to its height.

Haha yeah the T-fit will be sweet. Probably the next release of the 58 we’ll it with the T-fit. Thanks for the feedback

Yes! It looked sharp with the new 41mms. I might opt for that too.

That’s a really nice combo! 👍
