Tudor Black Bay 58 'Friends of Hodinkee'

Overall Condition: Good condition overall. Case and bracelet show signs of wear consistent with age and use. Dial and matching handset are excellent.

While we built our business—and our passion—around vintage watches, few contemporary collections capture that same spirit as convincingly as Tudor’s Black Bay. And none more so than the Black Bay Fifty-Eight.

The Fifty-Eight distills everything collectors admire about vintage dive watches—especially those from Tudor and Rolex—into a thoroughly modern, effortlessly wearable timepiece. First introduced with a black dial in stainless steel, the line has since grown to include bold alternatives in bronze, gold, and even sterling silver.

This example, Reference 79030N, is one of the original variants and was produced as part of a limited edition of just 100 pieces created exclusively for Hodinkee friends and family in 2019. Stamped with the Hodinkee name on the dial, this co-branded release is now something of a cult classic. It features a 39mm stainless steel case with sapphire crystal, a unidirectional rotating bezel with a black gilt insert, and a luminous gilt dial with Tudor’s signature snowflake hands. At its heart is the automatic, chronometer-certified Tudor MT5400 movement. The watch comes paired with a stainless steel rivet-style bracelet and a signed Fliplock clasp.

Showing wear from use, this rare Black Bay Fifty-Eight is accompanied by its complete factory set, including boxes, booklets, and a warranty card.

For those who love the soul of vintage Tudor and Rolex but want the confidence of a modern diver, few watches strike the balance as perfectly as the Black Bay Fifty-Eight—especially in this unusually rare and highly coveted Hodinkee edition.
