Common questions about the Tudor Black Bay 79030B

How big is the Tudor Black Bay 79030B?

The case measures 39mm across and 11.9mm thick, with a 20mm lug width. Case material: Steel. Case size alone is a poor guide to how a watch wears; lug-to-lug length and how the bracelet drops off the case matter more, which is why we suggest trying one on before you commit.

What movement is in the 79030B?

Automatic, Tudor in-house Cal. MT5402,

Is the 79030B water resistant?

It is rated to 200 meters, about 656 feet. That is a diving rating: it is built for scuba use, not just for getting wet. One caution that applies to every watch on this page: a water resistance figure describes a new watch with fresh gaskets. On a piece that is years past its last service, treat the rating as unknown until it has been pressure tested.

When was the Tudor Black Bay 79030B made?

Tudor produced this reference from 2020 to the present day. Production years matter when you are valuing one, because dial, bezel and bracelet details often changed inside a single reference run.

Does the 79030B have a nickname?

Black Bay Fifty-Eight Navy Blue. Collector nicknames are not official Tudor names, but they are what people actually search for and what they are called across a showroom.
