First released by Tudor at Watches & Wonders 2024 is the Black Bay 58 GMT.

The 39mm case measures 12.8mm thick with a 47.8mm lug-to-lug height (200 m of water resistance) with a screw down crown. While there is only the one color way at the time of release, there are options for a bracelet or strap. The three-link ?rivet-style” bracelet is inspired by the bracelets of the 1950s and 1960s and has a gentle taper from the clasp up to the end-link.
