A 2020 Tudor Black Bay 58 ref. 79030N powered by the in-house MT5402 automatic movement. With its 39mm stainless steel case, gilt accents, and vintage-inspired proportions, the BB58 has become one of Tudor’s most successful modern sports watches — blending everyday wearability with strong mechanical performance and classic dive-watch styling.
Why It’s Special
The Black Bay Fifty-Eight marked a turning point for Tudor, refining the larger Black Bay formula into a slimmer and more wearable 39mm platform that resonated strongly with collectors. The gilt dial and bezel details draw inspiration from Tudor’s vintage dive watches, while the modern MT5402 movement delivers strong reliability and everyday practicality. This example is presented as a complete full set with box, papers, manuals, and hang tags, offering a clean and highly wearable modern Tudor package.
Condition
Black dial is clean and original with crisp printing and no visible spotting or degradation. Lume plots are intact and evenly coloured, with matching handset and no visible damage. Sapphire crystal presents clean with no visible scratches. Stainless steel case remains sharp with light surface wear consistent with careful use; no major dents or signs of heavy polishing, with case geometry well preserved. Bezel insert is clean with crisp numerals and minimal wear, while bezel action remains firm and correctly aligned. Crown retains a sharp Tudor rose engraving. Caseback shows only light handling marks. Genuine Tudor rivet-style bracelet presents very well with minimal stretch and light desk wear to the clasp; includes full links and fits approximately a 19–20 cm wrist.
Performance: Recently tested on timegrapher at –4 seconds per day. Strong performance for a modern automatic sports watch and suitable for regular daily wear.
