The BB Pro
ever since the release of this watch last year I've seen countless posts, videos, and reviews about it popping up everywhere I go. Finally one day late last year I went to my usual AD and asked about it. The answer? "Yeah, we rarely get it in stock, but you can join the current waiting list~". So that's that, as I have no interest in the waiting game.
Fast forward to last weekend, I was doing some grocery shopping and took a stroll into the AD, and among the half-empty display cabinets of the Tudor section, there it was, a Black Bay Pro just sitting there. So... I bought it.
I have been wearing it for 3 days, and considering the weight and thickness of the watch it wears surprisingly comfortable. And I have had my fair share of thick dive watches and G shocks, the 14.6mm thick case which a lot of people seem to complain about was a none issue for me. The T-fit clasp is excellent, as it makes doing small adjustments throughout the day a breeze, however, probably due to the way I sometimes wear it, as shown in the photo, I have it quite low on the wrist when I'm wearing long sleeve shirts, the micro-adjusts sometimes will pop out on its own, but it is easy enough to push it back. And for the majority of the time it's sitting way higher on my wrist where I usually wear it.
The design and feel of the watch make it a great daily wearer, I got a feeling this might become my most worn watch in the near future.😬
today's a nice day.
The feeling of seeing it in the case at the AD must’ve been insane. Well done

oh for sure, I definitely did a double-take.
Cheers bro, welcome to the BB Pro club, glad you found it and didn’t have to wait. The journey with that watch only get better and better. Super stoked for you!
Great watch and great find without the need to play the waiting game
