Strap Showcase Episode 2: What's the go-to place for replacement watch straps for the Tudor Black Bay 58? Right here...

Tudor watches get a lot of attention here on the Online Magazine, our YouTube channel and social media. The fantastic balance between value for money, great designs, accessibility and brand heritage means they’re pretty hard for us to ignore. The other reason we like them so much is how amazing they look when you change the strap out for something more unique.

Today we’re going to take a look at the Tudor Black Bay 58 specifically and a selection of watch straps to really make the watch your own…

Things to consider.

Before we get into it, let’s go over the watches stand out features we can use when thinking of watch straps to fit the watch as well as key stats to consider:

Firstly, the watch features a lot of gilt colours on dial and bezel. This means that straps with warmer tones and colours will look great on the piece. Leather straps will be a fantastic option here. The use of colour on the Black Bay 58 doesn’t end there, as there is a subtle addition on the bezel. A red triangle can be found at 12 o’clock, although it's only small, it could be something we look to pick out with maybe a stitching colour or strap choice.

The simple, legible design of the dial means we can really have some fun with the straps and not have to worry about taking away from the watches design too much. Speaking of the dial, the Black Bay 58 has a matt black dial so we can go explore more sport straps to create some not just stylish, but also very reliable looks (perfect for the warmer months). Let's take a look at some killer Tudor Black Bay 58 straps!

To start with let’s look at a range of leather straps and the Vintage Highley in Olive Brown. Normally straps either use the stitching or the strap colour to create a cohesive look. Here the Olive Brown option actually uses both, working together to create an end product that looks pretty special. The strap colour means it sometimes looks almost orange/gold in its tones which works well with the gilt on the dial. The stitching in ivory picks up on the lume colour nicely.

To end the run of leather straps we have the Beaufort Racing in Beige. Right away, you may think this combo wouldn’t work that well on the 58, however, the bright colour of the strap really lifts the watch a lot. The racing holes tend to suit more chronographs, however, I think here it adds to the vintage charm of the watch.

The Black Bay 58 is an extremely versatile watch to have your collection (you can find more about that here). To fully enjoy this versatility you’ll need a few straps that can equally handle anything thrown at it. Let’s explore those now...

The ZULUDIVER Tropic Rubber Strap.

The texture of the strap is very sporty, and actually quite modern with an almost carbon fibre feel. However, the strap packs a bunch of historical relevance with diving watches from the 60s and 70s in mind. The ZULUDIVER branded buckle also reflects the same finishing on the Black Bay 58 case with brushed and polished finishes.

ZULUDIVER Seaton FKM Rubber Watch Strap

The Seaton FKM rubber strap is similar to the Tropic in the sense that it offers a more unique texture and design than most rubber straps, however, the Seaton uses FKM rubber and is a military strap! Rubber NATOs offer both supreme comfort and quite an unusual style with most people expecting NATOs to be made from nylon. Check it out for yourself here.

An iconic Tudor Black Bay 58 strap is the Classic Bond

WatchGecko Signature Single Pass NATO Strap - Bond

The Classic military style strap has been in our range for some time now. The grey and black classic bond option is a solid modern look that is a step above a simpler one colour strap. Its easily one of the most versatile military style strap strap we offer and works so well on the monotone Black Bay.

The Vintage Bond.

Sticking with Bond colours we have the classic ZULUDIVER Vintage Bond. With thousands of these flying out of the door all the time, once fitted to a watch you can really see why these are so loved. They are similar to the Grey and Black Bond we just talked about, however, they add a touch more warmth.

The ZULUDIVER 328 Black Rubber - an unbeatable Tudor Black Bay 58 rubber strap!

This is yet another classic in our lineup of straps. The Black 328 Rubber keeps it simple. What this strap misses out on in terms of colours it makes up in making the gilt colouring really pop on the wrist, brushed or polished hardware depending on what you prefer, polished for luxury.

If you like the Classic Bond but want something a little more subtle, then take a look at the Marine Nationale in Black and Grey. This predominantly black strap really adds a new, unique stealthy look to the Black Bay 58.
