Case and Design
The watch features a 39mm stainless steel case, maintaining the proportions that have contributed to the Black Bay 58’s broad appeal.

The screw-down crown and robust case construction contribute to its durability, making it suitable for both professional and recreational aquatic activities.
The dial itself is radially brushed, which enhances its interaction with light, offering a more dynamic appearance compared to previous Black Bay models.

This movement is certified as a Master Chronometer by METAS, marking a first for a non-complicated Black Bay 58. This certification ensures superior precision within a 0/+5 seconds per day range, as well as high resistance to magnetic fields and verified water resistance. Additionally, the movement holds a COSC Swiss Chronometer certification, reinforcing its reliability and performance.
