A side by side of a BB58 and a sub looks like a very different watch and certainly doesn't look cheap.
Omega has a great history but the bezel action is terrible compared to the BB58 and a far less versatile large and thick case. And check Adam Savages video if you think Omega is bullet proof reliable.
The BB58 is it's own thing and Tudor has carved out it's own style and niche.

The Tudor black bay is a much better looking watch than the submariner for starters. It's also available with a 43mm case in the bronze bay line for under 4k. The submariner by comparison looks extremely dated and appears laughably small on anyone who doesn't have frail little arms. Hence they are almost exclusively sold to desk divers as status symbols.
Most people who actually work for a living (instead of sitting behind a desk all day) would need to spend around 12k for a comparable sized Rolex to avoid looking like they have a nickel strapped to their arm. Hardly worth the money considering you can get better looking watches that perform just as well most work environments and have nearly identical accuracy.
Sure, the Rolex dive models at those price points can go a lot deeper, but don't even begin to pretend you'd ever come close to the 200m rating of the black bay. Honestly I'd wager you don't actually know much about watches in general, other than Rolex are expensive so they must be better. People who buy watches as status symbols are absolutely pathetic.
