Tudor Black Bay 58 Bronze - 39mm 79012M 2021 [Preowned]

Overview 

The Tudor Black Bay Fifty-Eight Bronze 79012M represents a bold yet thoughtful evolution of one of Tudor’s most celebrated modern designs. Introduced in 2021, this special reference builds upon the immense success of the original Black Bay Fifty-Eight, a 39mm diver launched in 2018 that perfectly captured the spirit and proportions of Tudor’s mid-century tool watches. While the Fifty-Eight quickly became a modern classic, the 79012M deepens that connection to heritage with a unique twist: a full bronze construction, a rarity executed with such meticulous detail and cohesion.

Crafted entirely from a satin-brushed aluminium bronze alloy, the case, unidirectional bezel, screw-down crown, and even the bracelet are all rendered in this warm, "living" metal. Chosen for its durability and its remarkable capacity to develop a unique patina over time, the matte finish enhances the vintage-inspired aesthetic. This ensures that each watch will take on a character entirely its own, maturing beautifully with every wear. The rich brown dial and matching bezel insert feature striking golden accents, directly echoing early Tudor dive models and offering strong contrast and warmth. True to Tudor form, legibility is exceptional, with large luminous hour markers and the signature "snowflake" hands standing out clearly.

Powering this unique timepiece is the COSC-certified Tudor Manufacture Calibre MT5400. This robust in-house movement offers an impressive 70-hour power reserve, along with a silicon balance spring and strong anti-magnetic properties, ensuring reliable and precise timekeeping. A significant highlight is the introduction of the fully bronze bracelet for the first time in the Black Bay family, complete with the innovative T-Fit clasp. This tool-free micro-adjustment system allows the wearer to easily modify the fit on the fly, much like a traditional diver’s extension, ensuring unparalleled comfort. The watch also includes an additional brown fabric NATO-style strap, offering distinct ways to enjoy this versatile piece for daily wear or more casual styling.

Currently an exclusive to Tudor boutiques, the Black Bay Fifty-Eight Bronze 79012M is a highly compelling and collectible variation within the esteemed Black Bay line. It's a watch that truly rewards both the enthusiast seeking material innovation and the collector drawn to deep vintage cues. Combining robust modern mechanical performance with the timeless soul of a bronze diver, this watch is designed to evolve uniquely with you, reflecting your journey in its ever-changing patina.
