There's something that happens to all watch nuts out there. A new release comes out and you are tempted by it and watches that once felt secure are being looked at with thoughts of selling it for the new release Or maybe a new release comes out and it makes you appreciate a particular watch and your love for that watch actually increases. I’ve been on both ends and both provide clarity about how you actually feel about your watches.

So when Tudor released the new Black Bay 58 GMT and the Black Bay 41 Monochrome they definitely piqued my interest BUT my love for my Black Bay 54 has increased since the release. That got me thinking why that's the case given how both releases are very much in my wheelhouse, a gmt with a bezel, and a crispy black and white diver. Lots to like here. In this video I’m going to get into why I think in 2024, despite all the releases, that the BB54 is still the Black Bay to get and that's considering that I’ve owned 4 BBs. Let me know what you think!
