Tudor Black Bay 36 - References, Prices and Owners' Reviews

I have owned this model for two years. Although my collection is growing, it adorns my wrist every day. I fell under the spell of its simple and refined dial. The symmetry of its indexes that swim in the deep waters of this black lacquered dial is captivating. From professional meetings to evenings with friends, it blends into my little wrist.

I bought this superb Black Bay 36 champagne dial version 2023, because it is one of the rare models, in the budget I had two months ago, to match my purchasing criteria: 36mm (over 37, it's already too much for me), thin, comfortable to wear, classy, without extravagance, simple, precise, from a renowned brand. However... it is a transitional watch: I admit it! Indeed, my watchmaking grail (and I sincerely believe that once I have acquired it, I will not buy anything else, in my life if not for years), is a Rolex, Datejust, 36mm, fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet, in gold (yellow) and steel, white dial with Roman numerals. It's this classy watch above all, of an ideal size, mythical, that of Patrick Bateman / Christian Bale in American Psycho (or rather that which resembles it, since, in the film, it's a Seiko that he wears, but of this style) - it's this watch that I absolutely want, without a doubt. And, in the meantime, I'm wearing this marvel of Tudor. Transitional watch, while waiting for the dream. Not that I'll sell my Tudor. Certainly I'll wear the Rolex exclusively at work, and the Tudor in more "risky" places, in the big city center, on weekends to relax, for example. This is the tour de force, in my opinion, of Tudor: to make me dream with an impeccable watch while waiting for the watchmaking Grail. And there's nothing shameful about that! Tudor can be proud of this release. Ps: thanks Xavier for your video from six months ago "Battle Tudor Black Bay 36 vs Rolex Datejust 36": I did like the guest, I bought mine at Doux.
