Morning coffee with my Black Bay 58
Is this as close to the perfect watch that you can get? I also own the Pelagos 39 which ticks alot of boxes. My criteria for a great watch includes, Size, look, quality and price.
In my opinion it's hard to find a better watch.

That’s a beautiful watch. I love how you matched it with a gray strap.
I have recently discovered this feeling myself. Really hard to take off. So comfortable, perfect dimensions. keeps great time. Speaks elegance without being boastful or flashy. Strap monster so options are endless. A true go anywhere do anything watch. Looks good with a suit. Looks good in a t-shirt. Water resistance rating is high. More than capable of going into the shower or the ocean. Why would you need anything more? No date was a con at first. But really not a deal breaker and no need to have to adjust anything if you let the power die out. Simply wind it and set it to the time. Price point is definitely matching the quality and reputation. No hubbub. 10/10 would recommend.

It's ostrich leather. Very premium feeling...
I’ve actually been consolidating because I love my BB58 so much. Interested to here how it compares to the Pelagos 39 as that is the other Tudor I’m interested in.

The Pelagos 39 looks bigger on my wrist only slightly. The titanium makes it lighter. I have the rubber strap on mine which comes with the watch. It's more rugged, the BB58 is more refined. Both of these photos are when I first got them so, at that time they are both on bracelet.

Got it, thanks!
It's the prettiest watch I've ever laid eyes on, and the dimensions are perfect, right down to the markers, hands, crown, everything. The designers did an A++ job on this watch.
