TUDOR HODINKEE Black Bay 58 Full Set Unpolished

The TUDOR Black Bay 58 is one of the coolest modern watches. This particular example is one of only 100 examples produced for HODINKEE’s Friends & Family. I love the model and have it within my personal collection! It is particularly interesting to vintage watches enthusiasts, as the design is very much inspired by the iconic Rolex “Big Crown” Submariner references 6538, 6200, 5510, and the TUDOR Submariner reference 7924. The dials have a similar texture to the matte dials with gold accents inspired by gilt dials. For those who love HODINKEE and appreciate the greatness of the TUDOR Black Bay 58, this is an incredible timepiece to wear in any setting.

The watch has some light wear and scratches, but it is unpolished. It comes from an important and, more importantly, cool individual within the HODINKEE universe. I absolutely love my HODINKEE Black Bay 58 and believe that the dual-signed examples, like this one, are very special.

I will never forget seeing my first TUDOR Black Bay 58 on the wrist of Jason Fried in Chicago many years ago and I was floored by the watch. I will never forget seeing the special HODINKEE version on the wrist of Brandon Frazin around 2019 and I was also floored by how awesome the watch was. I was honored to receive one shortly thereafter as a gift from Ben Clymer and it is a watch that really is special to me, particularly since I poured so many hours into writing for the site in its formative years and learned so much in the process. I am excited to be able to offer one for sale now and think whoever gets it will be extremely happy to own it. Phillips recently sold one for around $22,000 through its Perpetual program and this one is less than half the price.

We do not know the service history, but it is running well. The watch comes full set with box and papers.
