Watch Description
The iconic Tudor Black Bay collection reflects the brand’s rich history in producing world class diving watches that are fully equipped to meet the needs of time-keeping beneath the waves.
Designed for slender wrists, this vintage-inspired Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Men’s Watch pays tribute to the brands’ first divers’ watches with its black domed dial framed by a unidirectional rotatable steel bezel with a 60-minute disc in matt black anodized aluminum and pink gilded markings and numerals.
Set within a 39mm steel case, the black dial plays host to the brand’s signature snowflake hands, alongside luminescent hour markers for optimum visibility.
Driven by self-winding mechanical movement with a power reserve of approximately 70 hours, this high performance timepiece offers water resistance to 200 meters.

# Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Review by A.I. WatchMetrics
## Watch Summary
The Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight is a vintage-inspired dive watch with a compact 39mm stainless steel case, black dial featuring signature snowflake hands and gilt accents, a unidirectional rotating bezel with aluminum insert, powered by the in-house COSC-certified MT5402 automatic movement with 70 hours of power reserve, targeting enthusiasts who want a versatile, high-performing daily sports watch with 200m water resistance and timeless appeal.
## Overall Watch Rating: 8.0/10.0
**Dials & Design Metric (9.5/10.0)** - Its snowflake hands, gilt printing, and domed dial deliver iconic vintage dive aesthetics that benchmark modern reinterpretations like the Rolex Opaline Submariner.
**Versatility Metric (9.3/10.0)** - The slim 11.9mm profile, comfortable bracelet, and restrained sizing make it a seamless daily wearer from office to ocean, surpassing bulkier 42mm divers.
**Material Metric (9.3/10.0)** - Grade 2 stainless steel with brushed/polished finishing and domed sapphire crystal offers luxury-level durability comparable to Omega Seamaster cases.
**Movement Metric (9.2/10.0)** - The MT5402's COSC certification, 70-hour reserve, and silicon balance spring provide top-tier reliability akin to entry Rolex calibers.
**History & Innovation Metric (8.3/10.0)** - Rooted in Tudor's 1950s dive heritage with modern in-house COSC innovation, it echoes the legacy of the ref. 7928 while advancing accessibility.
**Brand Metric (8.0/10.0)** - As Rolex's premium sibling, Tudor delivers entry-luxury build quality and heritage that punches above brands like Oris or Longines.
**Functions Metric (7.5/10.0)** - Core timekeeping with superb legibility and dive-ready lume performs solidly but lacks extras like a date found in comparable Seiko Prospex models.
**Rarity Metric (6.5/10.0)** - At $4,100 retail with high production volumes, it offers accessible appeal without the scarcity of limited Omega or Blancpain divers.
**Complications Metric (4.0/10.0)** - The unidirectional bezel adds functional dive utility on par with entry-level tool watches but trails multi-feature chronographs.
## Total Performance Score (TPS): 9.9
## WM Collector Grade: A+
## Performance Insights: Excels in design, materials, versatility, and movement for exceptional value well above its implied $2,500 price point, though rarity and complications are average.
## TPS Interpretation: Exceptional Value: The watch vastly overdelivers on premium construction and daily usability relative to its market positioning.
