Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Navy Blue is one of the brand’s most iconic modern diving watches, inspired directly by the historic first-generation Submariner supplied to the French Navy in the 1970s. Its most distinctive feature is the compact and lightweight 39 mm case, a size highly favored by collectors for its vintage proportions and excellent wrist comfort. Paired with a traditional navy blue bezel and dial, along with Tudor’s signature Snowflake hands, the watch balances functionality with timeless aesthetics.
The 39 mm stainless-steel case retains the same dimensions as Tudor’s early diving models. Its compact structure and balanced proportions are especially suitable for wearers with medium or slimmer wrists. The case features finely brushed lugs, polished sides, and a large engraved screw-down crown bearing Tudor’s vintage rose logo. The blue anodized aluminum bezel displays silver-plated graduations, reinforcing its classic diving-watch identity.
The navy-blue dial maintains a clean, three-hand layout with a refined matte texture that provides excellent visual depth. The iconic Snowflake hands, originally developed for military use, deliver outstanding readability even in low-light environments. The absence of a date window preserves symmetry and purity—a characteristic loved by tool-watch enthusiasts.
At the heart of the watch is the MT5402 in-house automatic movement. Operating at 28,800 vph and offering a robust 70-hour power reserve, it includes a tungsten rotor, silicon hairspring, and a variable inertia balance wheel. Certified by COSC, the movement achieves a daily accuracy of –2/+4 seconds, ensuring high precision and reliability.
The stainless-steel bracelet features polished chamfered edges and solid construction, maintaining comfort even during long wear. Thanks to the lighter 39 mm case, the watch delivers excellent ergonomics for everyday use. The official retail price is 3,880$.
