Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Navy Blue 39mm Blue Case & Strap Watch

TUDOR pays tribute to the brand's first divers' watches with the Black Bay Fifty-Eight, a model whose dimensions evoke that of the epoch. 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 (660 ft), reference 7924 or 'Big Crown', 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 Blue'. 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.
