About To Buy The Tudor Black Bay Chrono

I'm about to pull the trigger on the Tudor Black Bay Chrono Panda Dial. I would love to learn more about the watch from current owners. Is there something I should be aware of?

Awww I’m jealous !! 😔 … I’m still deciding to go with the Chrono or seamaster …

One thing though I did try it on at the AD, if you don’t mind the size and thickness and weight then no issues! It’s a gorgeous watch!!

Thank you for info! I’m scheduled to pick it up in June (or at least that’s what my AD tells me). I’m gonna save for Seamaster myself after the Tudor :)

Cool!! Let’s get it together so we can be Twinsies!! 😂 I have the Black SMP already not sure if I can really justify getting a white dial one… then again do we really need justifications 😂🍻

Haha, we really don't. Unfortunately, I don't have a good dive watch, and the Seamaster has always been the one I've wanted. I won't lie, though. The Tudor offerings are brilliant too!

Go with your first love!! If your gut say Seamaster go for it! The seamaster is more comfortable and wearable, I was going to wear mine today but decided with my GS but if you’re going to wear it daily go for the SMP!!

I tried the BB chrono panda and was very impressed,great size ,nice bracelet only problem was it's quite stiff to wind ( not sure if it was just this one or in general) ,only problem for me was I couldn't read the small dials with out my glasses,damn this old age

This is reall helpful! I’ve got bad vision as well so I will definitely keep that in mind. Thank you!

Go for it! I've tried the Tudor Chrono, it is large/thick but much more wearable than what the YouTubers make it out to be! 👍👍

I have a 300M (36.5mm), which I bought back in 2001 and I love it - Go Brosnan Bond! I absolutely love the white dial 300 pictured, if I had bigger wrists I would defo buy one. I also have the BB58 (OG) and Tudor build quality is amazing. I know Omega's is but right now different price points. I would love both tbh. Be happy with your choice my friend it is an awesome timepiece!

I tried it on at the AD, and found the thickness and weight to be really uncomfortable. It is absolutely gorgeous, and I want the watch for sure, but I doubt I will want to wear it much because it’s so hefty.
