TUDOR Black Bay Fifty-Eight 39 M79030B-0001
TUDOR pays tribute to the brand's first divers' watches with the Black Bay Fifty-Eight “Navy Blueâ€ÂÂ. Fitted with a TUDOR manufacture movement, the Black Bay Fifty-Eight is designed for slim wrists and vintage enthusiasts alike. The Black Bay Fifty-Eight gets its name from the year 1958, in which the first TUDOR divers’ watch waterproof to 200 metres, reference 7924 or “Big Crownâ€ÂÂ, was introduced. Among other aesthetic nods to this historic watch, the model offers a case 39 mm in diameter in keeping with the characteristic proportions of the 1950s. In 1969, TUDOR introduced a divers’ watch with a blue dial and bezel. The other sporty watches in the collection were soon attired in blue, immediately creating a lasting aesthetic hallmark known as “TUDOR Blueâ€ÂÂ. Adopted by the French navy for its TUDOR divers’ watches during the 1970s, this livery became part of the collective imagination. The Black Bay Fifty-Eight “Navy Blue†follows in this tradition with its navy blue dial and bezel insert.
