I also rejected two watches before I got one with a shorter tube.
But overall really happy with the watch!
Lume looks really white on the pictures, but in real life, this is not that white and actually real close to gen.
Compared it to gen in real life and the lume looks spot on, the dial is a little lighter but depending on angle and light not really noticeable.

Just recieved my second Bb58 which I ordered from Toro.

I had rejected previous due to misaligned bezel markers.

Below some pictures of the watch on my hands, I think crown tube is too long... What do you think?

Yeah, that tube is ridiculous.

From what I gathered reading this thread, things to check when QCing a v2.

1. Check the tube length. If it is too long then instant RL. Having a reasonable tube length is a MUST and first priority imo.
2. Hands and hour markers should match in color.
3. Check markers are reasonably lined up, especially the 12 marker with the triangle tip centering with the shield logo. Note that it is rare to get 100% alignment with all markers so you have to live with this slight flaw.
4. Red triangle marker at 12 on bezel should be lined up. Also note the lume pipe will sometimes look off center on the red triangle.

just received my C&B Chevron NATO.
I‘m very, very happy with the strap! Outstanding quality and feels very good on the wrist.

I‘ve ordered also the original Tudor NATO but I think this is perfect for the price.

As they write on the website, very easy adjustable for your wrist.

That looks great! I ordered my C&B strap a few days ago, can't wait for mine to arrive.

Parci73 Can you upload wrists shots too?

Yes, really nice Strap! Looks perfect for this watch!

Today I ordered two other straps from C&B. Black and Charcoal Leather NATO, both for my Tudor Sub 79090.

This time with Express delivery, normal delivery from US to Europe took 6 weeks.

Hey folks, I normally don’t post qc requests but in this case I’m having a hard time figuring out if this is v1 or v2. If anyone knows definitively if the crown stem is the longer or shorter version, I could use a chime in. Again though, my only question is the crown stem height, not looking for any other input. Thanks!
