What time is it? Watches and horology

Actually quite like it, don’t mind the littlr blue cross.

I also like it

You’re in luck boys, you can buy one without the blue blob and it’s even cheaper.

Lol

I do like the bezel not being in gold, good thing the older Black Bay still exist.

I’m not sure its worthy of any thought other than to despair at my struggle to fit “Shape of You” into a sentence about watches.

Ha I just came here to post that.
One more pic...

Yeah, it’s yer boggo Black Bay, not a Fifty-Eight. Don’t think the Fifty-Eight was out yet when he did that.

What do you think about both the black bay and 58? I know the BB is bigger with an older movement, but doesn't mean it's inferior compare to the latest 58 does it?

The movement in the standard BB isn’t very old. Whether it’s actually better than the 2824-2 it used to have is debatable too...

They’re nice watches, I like them but can’t get past the thickness, the Arial issue and the mix of dot markers with snowflake hands. The flank is completely disproportionate and the standard model doesn’t have the comfort scallop that the GMT has.

Having said that, the blue bezel one is the best looking watch in the whole BB family for me.

BB58 is the perfect size but I didn’t really vibe with it when I checked it out. Dunno why.

All IMHO

the blue bezel

I raise you the 5B

Not sure if troll... not my thing, but if you like bronze watches, that is certainly a bronze watch.

No troll. I like bronze watches. Softer feel to it. Bronze is a very nautical metal, bronze divers go well together.

What's not to like?

Guess bronze is divisive

It’s just kind of brown, and I don’t really do brown. Bronze has done nothing wrong.

So I have a Seiko “Bishop” and it really bothers me that the hands are not lumed. How hard is it to apply lume to an unlumed hand?

the mix of dot markers with snowflake hands

This. The pelagos does it better.

Does make no sense for such a dark movie.

Might affect value tho.

V cool btw.

Bronze has done nothing wrong.

Lol

Ed Sheeran knows a geezer in Geneva, he does it with blue highlighter pen.
