Just catching up on stuff but just wanted to say that that is an absolutely beautiful watch and a really nice gesture to pass it on to your sis :)
@regal - congrats on the 39 Pelly, absolute belter. I quite like that OP though...
@Howard that Paulin is a vibe. Love it! And @Ecobeard that Smith is an absolute banger.
@Soul there's deffo some skinnier Black Bay models around - the original ETAs were only 12.7 mm thick, and the 58's are under 12mm. Think it was mainly the inhouse movement that chunked them up a bit but looks like Tudor have managed to slim their mech down now - aren't most of their new releases (ignore the complications) less than 12mm now?

The BB54 is lovely...
Extremely first world topic. I got a really nice 30.5 mm speedking 6430 for my 21st which my dad got for his 21st and could never wear due to size. Posted about it a few years back. Box and papers from the 70s too. I wear it maybe 4x a year max and going to give it to my sister who it looks much better on. Kind of gutted as I now won't have a nice watch and can't afford what I'd like which is a 36mm explorer.. but I know she will get more use out of it.
The BB54 may replace it.
