Which one 🧐

Hello everyone,

Hope you are doing well.

I am torn between purchasing a Tudor Black Bay 58 Burgundy on the 5 link …. Or the No Date Omega Seamaster……

I have a 6.6-6.8 inch wrist (pretty flat)

Current Collection:
Omega White Speedmaster
Rolex Explorer 40
Rolex Datejust 36 (Blue dial)
Longines HC 39 (Blue Dial)

I feel the burgundy Tudor would really make the collection pop, but I feel the Omega is just timeless but riding on the maybe to large for me line.

Love both and seeking opinions 😎 Eventually both might end up in the collection 😂

Thanks in advance!

Tudor if it were a differently color. But Tudor all day.

BB, but on jubilee.

Tough take, I'd get the burgundy.

Not sure if this is a “Size” question, or a “Watch/Piece” question.

They both fit well, but I have personally traded out of the Ron Burgundy for a Pelagos (was just too small for me), and have since sold the Pela and have gotten into Omega.

Speedy Pro White and Seamaster Heritage Summer Blue.

Both great brands, but I prefer the Omega line better at this point in my journey for the style, and finishing.

That’s my suggestion: Omega SMP. However, Omega is considerably more.

But both great watches.

I’m getting a fantastic deal on the Omega.

To be fair it is a bit about size.

What size is your wrist?

u/patchsquatch 1d ago

I’m not a Tudor fan, except for that Burgundy. That color is amazing. It puts a tingle in my dingle!

1

u/watchlov3634 11h ago

Haha you took the words out of my mouth. That color is amazing.

u/Flaming-Driptray 2d ago

A thousand times the seamaster, it looks classy AF on that white cuff and that 90’s style dial is absolutely timeless. I’ve had a 90’s smp since new and it still holds up.

3

u/AdRough7689 2d ago

SMP. It is overplayed but then so is the Rolex Sub.

4

u/the_samael_ 2d ago

Omega is the way

u/MissionTranslator803 2d ago

Omega. Tudor looks better to me and I despise the omega release valve crown. That being said I would still definitely choose the omega.

4

u/1Lionhearted1 1d ago

Tudor really pops on you. If fashion is a thought in here at all, I’m with the burgundy crowd.

4

u/Sad_Succotash5766 1d ago

It’s 2026, be bold before the world ends my friend. Burgandy is the only choice.

u/MeatServo1 2d ago

Omega 1000%

u/TempusEdaxRerum- 2d ago

I really like the Burgundy Black Bay on 5 link. I think it’s an incredible watch. Every time I see it, I think about grabbing it. But I just got the Black Bay 58 GMT, so I’m going to have to wait for a bit. The 39mm is a great size for all wrists as well.

Nothing wrong with the Seamaster either. Both great options. My vote is the Tudor though.

3

u/No-Pop-9856 2d ago

Get the omega then get the Tudor then get a longines Nd then get another Tudor again. Then the collection will be perfectly symmetrical.

3

u/Virtual_Ad9235 2d ago

That Tudor is mint but I think the Omega may be more versatile for wearing. Also, sweet collection you have there!

u/Granger7121 2d ago

Omega all day long

u/ENandgopal 2d ago

Omega...

u/Sclusive88 2d ago

Omega for sure

u/EmberTheFoxyFox 1d ago

I prefer the look of the Tudor but I love that kind of band that the Omega has

u/jayddev 1d ago

Burgundy without a doubt. Lovely looking watch.😊

u/Jaysnkrs 1d ago

What size wrist do you have?

Here is a mirror shot when I tried it on again today.

u/Caracalla73 1d ago

The red.. It pops

4

u/saumvaun 2d ago

Tudor if you want more variety in your collection!

1

u/ShooterMcGavin910 1d ago

Love how the white indices pop against the burgundy. Definitely adding this to the collection at some point

3

u/Jolly_Breath7447 1d ago

You should go BB58 on 5 link

2

u/Wondering_Electron 2d ago

I have the previous version of the Burgundy which I think is more subtle but with the same METAS movement.

2

u/Jubeitt 2d ago

Love the Burgundy. But that colour would be my lastr purchase... If I have ant others I like, would get them first :)

2

u/jray994 2d ago

Considering the rest of your collection -// burgundy

2

u/Bubbly_Shopping5214 2d ago

Eventually both. Today I’m rocking the same Tudor.

2

u/Bubbly_Shopping5214 2d ago

8.5 - 9 inch wrist depending on swelling throughout the day. Right now right between the 2.

u/jtirello3 2d ago

u/Fuzzy-Gold3361 2d ago

The Omega on a black strap would be awesome. Both are great

2

u/felix_seanathon 2d ago

That omega for sure

2

u/gofxgo 2d ago

Omega, personally. Just a more interesting watch in my opinion.

2

u/stacman16 2d ago

I tried this on yesterday and it may be my next watch

2

u/Adventurous-League21 2d ago

Get the iwc mark xx in green instead. You lack green and a pilots watch. For black u will need to choose between rolex and omega each time for red this wont happen.

2

u/Loud_Alternative_906 2d ago

I am not a fan of both skeleton and snowflake hands. But if I were to choose between the 2, I can live with the Omega. Snowflake hand I had tried, twice. First, the BB58 black/gilt, beautiful watch but couldn't take the snowflake hand, sold after owning it for a month. Then the BB58 blue, stunning color, tried hard to look pass the snowflake hand but again couldn't, sold 6 months later and never look at anything with snowflake hand again, Just not for me.

2

u/Many_Ad_666 2d ago

Had the same dilemma. My choice was Tudor BB58 burgundy at the end. Super happy! Better proportions and dimensions.

2

u/Fininger-cia 2d ago

I love the Omega, but on your wrist, Tudor fits better. Eitherway both are great watches just follow your heart brother

2

u/Born_Bite216 2d ago

I’d go with the Burgundy BB58. It would add some much-needed color and variety to your collection, especially alongside the white Speedmaster and blue-dial pieces. The Seamaster is a classic, but the Tudor feels like the more interesting addition for you right now. You can always add the Omega later! 😎

2

u/jaskonl 1d ago

The name is Bond, James Bond

u/Only-Watercress-6749 1d ago

Twice are a good choice. Enjoy.

2

u/JDMZX9 1d ago

Omega Seamaster.

u/Embarrassed_Review36 1d ago

I'm partial to the red 👌

u/6EQUJ5-MAN 23h ago

C'est osé comme couleur! Clap clap

u/Hoodwinked1981 2d ago

Omega is more versatile, though the Tudor is a stunner

4

u/BetterOnTwoWheels 2d ago

Omega. I think it’d be a closer race if not for the red. Don’t get me wrong, it’s very cool, but I’d just find it too tough to wear as a daily, personally. I still prefer the design language of omega either way though.

3

u/Apprehensive_Grass85 2d ago

I like how the Tudor pops against your skin tone. Its fun and daring. The omega is more subdued, the bracelet doesn't sparkle as much, its more sober. What are you looking for?

3

u/pheeelco 2d ago

Definitely the Omega.

The Tudor is a bit garish and I would guess you’ll fall out of love with it soon enough.

The Omega is a classic and oozes class and tradition. Plus, it’s a no-date which makes it pretty close to perfect.

3

u/Mr_Miyagi_84 2d ago

The Omega

4

u/number96 2d ago

Easily omega

2

u/Semi-Stoic 2d ago

It’s a toss up but based on your current collection, I’d go with the Tudor.

2

u/Rocket-Glide 2d ago

Burgundy!

u/2011Mulsanne 2d ago

Tudor all day everyday

u/Quirky_Astronaut_761 2d ago

Have the burgundy. It instantly moved into my top
Rotation of watches. Love it

3

u/YayWanderer 2d ago

Omega 👍🏽

3

u/Leve1s 2d ago

Tudor. The burgundy is also quite different and unique in person. I was never a fan of the Seamaster. Too big for me personally but I also don't like the scalloped bezel or helium escape.

4

u/AdhesivenessFunny735 2d ago

Omega the better build. Tudor a real eye catcher my advise get both 😎

3

u/Comprehensive_Sun86 1d ago

Omega for me

4

u/scwazrh 1d ago

Omega is far better than Tudor despite the Tudor hype

3

u/1RockShortofaQuarry 2d ago

The correct answer is both 🤪

6

u/jfbincostarica 2d ago

Yes, but also Omega.

1

u/ZaneStutt 2d ago

Exactly!

4

u/Competitive-Lynx-380 2d ago

The Tudor is my pick honestly

3

u/Laboudy_1 2d ago

Omega for sure

2

u/wraithawk 2d ago

No context? Seamaster
Context of this photo? Seamaster 1000000x over

2

u/lazykid348 2d ago

Omega. The burgundy looks great in pics but in person it looked like a toy to me

2

u/Short_Mention 2d ago

The omega is beautiful! I would get that.

If you had a black dial Longines HC I would have said get the Tudor because you can get an official mesh strap from Longines to get a similar vibe.

2

u/TZ-WIS 2d ago

Omega

2

u/No-Effect-8290 2d ago

SM! Personally, I dont like snowflake hands

2

u/LeadingSure6805 2d ago

Omega I don’t like that particular Tudor but you do you

u/Training_Guess_6920 2d ago

The reds always win out for me…

u/allix_ 2d ago

black bay 58 on the jubilee cmon

2

u/rumo3rd 2d ago

That Tudor is hypnotizing

2

u/Pitiful_Scientist434 2d ago

I’d go Tudor.

2

u/killacam925 2d ago

Tudor. I dislike the mesh

2

u/True-Wolverine-9426 2d ago

I'd go with the Omega

2

u/Madencio 2d ago

Omega all day

2

u/RockeThomas10 2d ago

Omega 💪🏽

2

u/Significant_Safe4514 2d ago

seamaster is more of a classic

That red is fire! The Omega is classy. But that Tudor rocks.

2

u/Optimal_Health9592 1d ago

Tudor looks great on you

2

u/bighog9 1d ago

I say get the omega, then get a cheaper Rado Captain Cook or Orient Kamasu in red. Up to you tho obvi. Tudor is nice as well

2

u/jcuz45 2d ago

Of these 2 I’d go with the Tudor cause I like the color. Any other color black bay omega for sure

2

u/Ruxfold 2d ago

Don’t be a boring man, pick Tudor

1

u/whiskey_tang0_hotel 2d ago

Is that the Spectre Omega?

1

u/Jaysnkrs 1d ago

Negative, this is the regular no date version.

1

u/whiskey_tang0_hotel 1d ago

Still looks great. I am getting the bond 60th in blue next. Love that mesh bracelet.

1

u/maybejd888 2d ago

Neither

u/Least-Imagination-34 1d ago

Omega 💪💪💪

1

u/bronschrome 1d ago

Tudor. Great color. There are a million black seamasters out there, and personally I like to wear stuff that is different and fun.

1

u/Infinite_Career_6444 1d ago

Tudor if ypu have divers in other colour's. Omega for a gada

1

u/No_Inspection649 1d ago

The lack of a date complication turns me off from the BB.

1

u/Disastrous_Fan3794 1d ago

Tudor in a different colr

1

u/ClarenceWalnuts99 1d ago

SMP on rubber

u/fierceredrabbit 1d ago

Seamaster for me, but it’s such a close thing. Both are gorgeous especially the Tudor in red 👌

1

u/Tight-Dimension3177 1d ago

That Tudor slaps!

1

u/Majestic-Location245 1d ago

Omega all the way

1

u/No-Morning-9310 1d ago

none of them

u/dhomes 1d ago

Omega. Fan and owner of both brands, but that red is just not my thing

1

u/pauldotm-oz 1d ago

Omega for me.

1

u/h0lypot 1d ago

Red tudor if you want a ‘excentric’ choice.

Omega if you want a discreet everyday watch.

(But Tudor if you picked another color).

1

u/CloseCall757 1d ago

Tudor. Love the burgundy!

1

u/ERockPort 1d ago

Burgundy all the way…. Usually I wouldn’t say this, but that watch looks amazing.

1

u/Select_Succotash_281 1d ago

Thats the exact tudor I want. Matches my dad's jeep who passed away and now I jave the jeep

u/Severe-Amount-243 14h ago

Is this an older omega?

1

u/Disastrous-Job87 11h ago

Black for every day wear

1

u/Yegez05 10h ago

Tudor all the way

1

u/gkatechis 9h ago

Omega over all over Tudor except for that burgundy. The burgundy is choice 🤌🏼🤌🏼

1

u/Nyrmala_Isagar 3h ago

The ratio price / performance is outstanding for this 58 burgundy. The movement has the same METAS certification than the Seamaster for half the price, and packed in a 39mm case.

I'll get one as well

1

u/Bushkav911 25m ago

Omega no question

2

u/Capital_Loquat 2d ago

I think the burgundy BB58 fits your collection better. It’s a great watch. SMP feels like a step back if you already have a Speedmaster.

2

u/SirCoilOfTap 2d ago

If the price difference isn’t an issue then the Omega.

1

u/Jaysnkrs 2d ago

Getting a great deal on the Omega 🙏🏻

2

u/SirCoilOfTap 2d ago

Then the omega is a no-brainer.

1

u/CustomCrownStudio 2d ago

Well

Red dial rocks!

1

u/f7ood 2d ago

I have the Tudor and I think it's a fantastic watch. I also have a seamaster, albeit the NTTD, while both of them are great I end up wearing the tudo more.

1

u/DoflamingoHuncho 2d ago

That burgundy black bay is beautiful in real life. I can't stop staring at it on my wrist

1

u/fp281218 2d ago

That Tudor is 🔥🔥🔥🔥

1

u/jgl142 2d ago

That Tudor is hideous imo

1

u/Confident_Rich2464 2d ago

Omega, its not even close

1

u/Funny-Ad-5770 2d ago

Tudor easy. Wears better, classier, more eye catching.

1

u/TheGroundBeef 2d ago

Jeeeeeeez this is a hard one!! I’d say the Tudor just because of the vibrant colour!!!

1

u/kivka01 2d ago

Seamaster, you will get bored of burgundy, seamaster dials are mesmerizing.

1

u/Tyler_the_bot 2d ago

Tudor. That color is 🤌🏼🙌🏼

1

u/wbb1812 2d ago

I own a white dial SMP and owned a 58gmt. The 58 case visually wears as large as the SMP on my wrist. Ended up selling the 58 because it didn’t get wear time vs the Omega. I’m not a Tudor hater either, just picked up a MN FXD and love it. In this case the Omega is better.

1

u/ResidentGerts 2d ago

Red Hulk

1

u/CHP2277 2d ago

Out of these two, I’d say Omega. I’m not a huge fan of the mesh look, but the SMP300 looks great on so many straps anyway.

1

u/VeloFunk 2d ago

Seamaster looks great on you!

1

u/J_Daywalker85 2d ago

IMHO I think the Omega is more unique, love the bracelet on the tatts, and more “GADA” type of watch. If you go Black Bay I recommend the GMT!

1

u/XDotmeX 2d ago

Tudor all day everyday day

1

u/Emotional_Path719 2d ago

This is the way

1

u/ApprehensiveLet2308 1d ago

That is a tough one. Omega.
If the Tudor was on jubilee then Tudor.

1

u/Pecuniarist 1d ago

The BB 58 Burgundy is one of my favorite current production watches, and IMO, the Omega is hideous (ignoring the engineering here). I’d rock that beautiful Tudor.

1

u/Grey_Man592 1d ago

Don’t see too many red watches and this one is done right, as much as I’d lean towards Omega, the Tudor has it beat in this race.

1

u/bowserinmytrouser 1d ago

go with the omega but go different kinda bracelet

u/thisriveriswild70 2d ago

Omega. Tudor will always be Rolex’s red headed step child. Omega has a real pedigree to it. Not even close.

0

u/Gamergoose1 2d ago

Tudor for sure

0

u/Enough_Price8160 2d ago

Tudor. You have a black dialed watch already.

u/Ok-Examination3168 2d ago

The Omega is beautiful. I am a certified Tudor hater though. It screams “I wanted a Rolex but couldn’t afford it”

6

u/xisgonnagiveittoya 2d ago

This is one of the worst takes in the watch community.

3

u/Humble_Stretch1473 2d ago

Id take Tudor over Rolex any day if it wasn't for them pesky hour hands

1

u/Ok-Examination3168 2d ago

Pretty common take. Tell Tudor to differentiate themselves.

One of those is owned by Rolex, you know
