Bought this a couple of years ago to ride during a short career break - used it a grand total of once before covid shut down the world and totalled all my plans (and everyone else's). It has sat unridden ever since. sniff
I bought it for £1300 - I'm going to sell it for £1000. Which makes the above one of the most expensive single bike rides I've ever done... It's in exactly the same spec as when bought (except it has a garmin mount that extends back over the stem - a SRAM one I think) and I will sell it with a full bottle of Stans tubeless sealant and a couple of unused inner tubes.
I'll add a few more pics soon.
Based in Hither Green SE13 - collection only.

There are a few signs of use as is expected however nothing more than cosmetic scuffs and a bit of cable rub.

In terms of measurement pretty much in the middle of the two, but in terms of how it wears def closer to the 007 - it's a 40mm with no bezel so the dial is larger.
(and if anyone wants one I have a blue one boxed virtually unworn - SRPE53 I believe - stickers still on bracelet - which I would let go for well below used ebay prices for folk on here)

Fits you perfectly I'd say - the pelagos has a much longer lug to lug so may well overhang your wrists. I also think the BB58 is more versatile than the pelagos, and could more easily be worn in smarter settings. The pelagos is more of a true tool watch and (for me) more casual.
But as people have said - at the end of the day you should choose the watch you want and don't worry too much about what other people say.

As above. Rrp £150 ish. Selling for £80. Basically as new (I think I used it once?).
Not sure if this is ‘lockable’ as I can’t see a keyhole as such. But if it is I don’t have the key obviously to hand - will check - but tbh not worth it anyway as these things have v v basic key systems and better to run a normal cable lock through the arm rest if you’re going to be locking your bike up in public).
Collection only from hither green SE 13.

Another option is wolbrook / Douglas - 40mm skin diver with a choice of sapphire or boxed hesalite - the watch Neil Armstrong wore in real life apparently
Alsta also do some skin divers at 40mm I think but poss not box crystal
The squales above look nice
