Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Blue Ref. 79030B
Status: Active Investigation
Condition: Excellent Pre-Owned
Scope: Box, Papers, and Cards
Year: 2021
The Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Blue Ref. 79030B is one of the most balanced and collector-loved modern dive watches in Tudor’s lineup — a watch that takes the BB58 formula and gives it a cooler, cleaner maritime personality.
Where the original black-dial BB58 leans vintage and gilt-heavy, the blue version feels slightly sharper and more contemporary. The navy blue dial and matching blue bezel give the watch a distinctly nautical feel while still preserving the compact, vintage-inspired proportions that made the Fifty-Eight such a hit with collectors.
At 39mm, the BB58 Blue hits one of the most wearable sweet spots in modern dive watches. It wears comfortably, sits cleanly on the wrist, and carries enough presence to feel substantial without ever becoming bulky.
This example dates to 2021 and is presented in excellent pre-owned condition, showing minimal signs of careful wear. The dial and crystal remain clean, and the bracelet presents very well.
The watch includes box, papers, and cards, and is currently sized to fit approximately a 7.5-inch wrist.
