Yeah, I was just offering it as an option to the OP because he seems to like green accents and Tudor.


The nice thing about the Harrod's edition now is you can order it because for a while you had to pick it up in London.

I have the black and burgundy colorways of the original ETA BB and it is a bit of an odd wear. The head fits me more or less fine but I am not picky on fit, evidence by the fact I don't notice a Ploprof after the first 10 minutes. My only real gripe with them is the lack of half link and only 3 pin adjustments in the clasp. It can leave you in between sizes fairly easily: a tad too loose or a tad to tight. Even the T-fit clasp doesn't fix it for everyone. It is sad when you have to go to Uncle Seiko to get a half link for a Tudor to make it fit properly.

And to think they have the best adjustable clasp in the business wtih the original Pelagos and thats the only watch in their lineup that has it as far as I know. I've toyed with the idea of a BB54, but haven't consummated that long-distance relationship thus far. I have also given thought to a Pelagos 39, but I have a 16610 Sub Date (L-serial,1989, with nice warm real patina on the dial furniture), so how could those two even compete for wrist time if I'm wearing that kind of watch (the BB 58 really doesn't)?

Believe this is what I had on.


Did not want to give it back.


Don’t they make another one where the crown is off center. Meaning it is at the 4 o’clock position. Or the 8 o’clock and that dive watch.
