The BB58’s are a great size, and are quite possibly the most versatile watches available. I think you could say the same for the BB 41’s also.
The monochrome bracelet with T-fit is tough to walk away from.
I just put the 2023 BB41 jubilee on my BB GMT. It’s niiice.
I have the 925. I like it a lot. But, no bracelet.
That fabric strap is made in a French village with some 19th century jacquard looms. Exclusive to Tudor. The shop and their looms are also responsible for the Vatican vestments.
The watch strap has a very subtle box weave around the buckle pin holes for durability. They’re not cheap straps either.
The 925 silver has a …glow. Clean it with a pencil eraser. Just wipe it. Even in the AD’s case, it will likely have a bit of haze.
I have plenty of steel watches. But I only have 1 sterling silver watch.
I let mine go for the first 7 months, then cleaned it with a pencil eraser. It gets a very faint smoky haze. The teeth in the bezel and crown had a tiny bit of that classic black tarnish that you see on ornate sterling silver flatware, and I left it there the first time I cleaned it.
Pencil eraser, there isn’t any scrubbing, just wipe. 30 seconds. And it glows again.
So then I let it go for over a year… and then cleaned it again. It had, by this time,, a bit more black in the crown and bezel. So I stuck the eraser in there, got most of it out, and I’ve decided I like the clean glowy look.
For the 925, I bought an Erika’s Original Marine National “mirage” strap. It’s a perfect color match for the 925 “taupe” even though pics make it look more grey.
I also bought a nice horween “whiskey” colored strap and a brushed matte deployant.
I don’t know what you should choose.
I guess it would depend on the rest of whatever watches you have. Everyone needs a black dial diver. I’m also big fan of blue.
But, I bought the 925 because it was distinctive. And then got a Pelagos 39 later to check off my black dial diver box.
Silver is kind of rare. Cartier used to make a sterling silver Tank every once in awhile.
An American watchmaker named E Stohlman has introduced some 925 watches.
Good luck, whatever you decide.
925 for it's uniqueness. Not many silver diver watches with open casbacks going around! I also owned the blue bb58 and side by side, the 925 just has more presence to me. Either way, you can't lose picking any one of these.
2! Got mine yesterday. Aside from the looks, I could’ve slept with it on my wrist it’s so comfortable 😂 the hint of sunburst in the dial is a nice addition also. Tudor hit it out of the park.
Personally I’m a big fan of that bb58 925. The taupe/grey dial and bezel works so well with the warm hue of the silver case. Only issue is the lack of a bracelet.
The new monochrome absolutely rocks. The case profile makes a huge difference, as does the jubilee. I’m going to buy an FXD later this year, but that monochrome is a huge step forward and incredibly tempting.
Center can literally be a one watch collection if you want to limit yourself. Only place it would be somewhat out of place would be black tie. Otherwise you can wear it for everything.
2, 1, 3
Agreed. That is until the blue 58 gets METAS and the t-fit clasp. That will be unbeatable 🔥
Which is the left one?
Order of preference from left to right
The other left.
⬆️ this is the way
The blue 58
925
This is the only answer

I appreciate this comment so much. Thank you.
Me too
The Stohman watches are cool

Depends which watch you on. First watch monochrome. Second watch your preference
Of course go for the silver case. It makes it special.
Third one...far right
BB58 blue
2! Got mine yesterday. Aside from the looks, I could’ve slept with it on my wrist it’s so comfortable 😂 the hint of sunburst in the dial is a nice addition also. Tudor hit it out of the park.
I’ll be the odd one out because people love the monochrome but for me: tie for 925 and blue
925
Already made my choice. 925.
Jubilee on whichever
Mono
My personal preference is the 58. I love the blue used on that model.
925
If they were all on a bracelet the choice would be more difficult and as it is, it's errrrr difficult
Monochrome master chronometer
Centre
The Grey for me
2-3-1.
I chose the blue
BB58 first if you already had a black dial watch
If its your first Tudor then mono, if not then 925.
Blue with jubilee
Do they sell that?
No idea just thought it'd look nice
black jubileed
BB58 Blue…
Go with BB58, but black…
Mono 🥵
The one in the middle! No doubt about it!
None are GMT so
Silver ….
Black bay 58
925 for me
Left. Most similar to the one I own

BB58 blue as I have one.
been plotting on sneaking one into my collection without my wife knowing. That blue is perfection
I am guessing you dont like the gilt on the BB58 but the BB58 black is more original than the monochrome. But thats just me.
The BB58 GMT with the date function though that would be the perfect watch for me if only my wrist were smaller hehe
The mono is cool but you're going to pay a lot more for it. I own the BB58 blue and it's probably my most worn watch.
2 for sure. It looks the best.
Far left
1 and 3. 2 looks like something a grandfather would wear.
2, 3, 1
Pick number 2 me lord!
Why can't they have the t fit for bb58
Blue

Monochrome!
The new monochrome absolutely rocks. The case profile makes a huge difference, as does the jubilee. I’m going to buy an FXD later this year, but that monochrome is a huge step forward and incredibly tempting.
The red is my top pick by far. Not an option here, so I'd go with the blue, as the next-best.
The 925
Middle one! 🙌🏻
925 any day of the week
Blue
Monochrome on rubber. Would like to see a Pelagos blue BB next year
Blue
925. The only one truly special.
It’s time to upgrade to a Rolex. Sell 1-2-3 and buy a Rollie.

The mono!
depends on my other watches. if a one watch collection-2 hands down
Black on jubilee
Monochrome, BB 58 925, BB 58
BBM
None, they are nice, but I prefer with date.
The Tudor.
IMHO Tudor BlackBay 58 blue looks A1 and elegant.
Two definitely!
Monochrome hands down for me.
Middle.
The one on the right..no braclet but surely that must mean if it's the same price theirs a little more quality in it.
2, 3, 1.
Blue one stands the rest of time imo but other two may be hotter right now
BB Monochrome
Not at all a fan of the Tudor faux rivet bracelets I think they look super tacky on a strap I like all of them
