Can’t go wrong with any of these. I’d say depends on what you do/how you dress for work everyday and what you mainly want it for. Bb58 and speedy are versatile enough to be dressed up/down. Datejust depends on config honestly.

I figured as much. And this was just one salesperson at one dealer, and maybe they were just not as well versed on zenith so didn’t try to sell me harder on it.
I think Tudor BB58 is well worth it. Pelagos 39 is an awesome watch too, and maybe a tad more versatile depending on your style. I am yet to find an outfit the BB58 doesn't look great with though - the gilt dial is something special.
I went to a dealer today, looking at a couple Zeniths (and some other brands) and felt that I was almost being "pushed away" from Zenith. They brought up poor(er) customer service when compared to Omega, Rolex, etc. and that if an issue did arise it could take 9-12 months to get the watch back. There was also a clear lack of brand knowledge when compared to other brands in the $5-15k range.
1 vote for Tudor.
The purple dial is awesome, cancer or not - haha! Enjoy the watch!
I just recently got very into watches, and when I saw the purple dial Seiko Rowing Blazers collab I had to have it. I was recently diagnosed with pancreatic cancer (29yo) which has a purple cancer ribbon, so I wear the watch on Thursdays to treatment. Might wear this watch every Thurs after I beat it too.
I was just in the same predicament, except I was looking at the black dial zenith with the brown leather vs the sapphire speedy but on the bracelet. Ended up preferring the speedy by a bit but the zenith will be one of the next purchases for sure. Good luck!
