The Tudor Black Bay Blue pairs a dark blue bezel with a black dial and silver-colored hands and markers—a cooler, cleaner take on the Black Bay than its burgundy sibling. The choice that matters most is between the early rose-dial version and its shield-dial successor: similar faces, but different movements and personalities.

Introduced in 2014, 79220B uses the ETA 2824-2, with Tudor’s rose at twelve and curved “SELF-WINDING” text below the hands. That “smiley” dial is a genuine reason to seek out the earlier watch. The 2016 successor, 79230B, brings the in-house MT5602, chronometer certification and a substantially longer power reserve, alongside the shield logo and straighter dial text.

On bracelet, the earlier reference has plain links; the later one adopts decorative rivets. Neither is the smaller Black Bay Fifty-Eight: this is the broad-shouldered 41mm Black Bay, so its height and wrist presence deserve attention.
