The first, and arguably most exciting, announcement from TUDOR this morning was the addition of a chronograph to the Black Bay lineup. The 41mm steel Black Bay Chronograph has the first in-house chronograph movement (Manufacture Calibre MT5813, COSC) from TUDOR, so it’s sure to become a collectors item in the future. The watch will be available either on a riveted steel bracelet ($5,050) or a brown leather strap ($4,725) and each variation will come with TUDOR’s signature additional fabric strap, as shown in the above photo.

At Baselworld 2017, TUDOR builds off the popularity of their newly released 36mm unisex Black Bay model by offering the same slimmer case and simpler design by offering the same aesthetic in a larger 41mm mode. This version of the Black Bay should appeal to the more business-orientated man, and at just $2,950 it makes the perfect graduation gift.

To appeal to a wider audience, TUDOR is now offering their classic Black Bay in a steel and gold (hence, S&G) variation.

Collector’s Corner: King Jewelers Nashville Has TUDOR Black Bay Bronze In Stock Now!

We’re excited to announce the anticipated arrival of one of the hottest watch releases for 2016 in the under $5,000 watch category: TUDOR’s Black Bay Bronze timepiece. From the historical Heritage Black Bay family, the arrival of the new Heritage Black Bay Bronze marks a magnificent 43mm divers’ watch that was inspired by the brand’s history. The Black Bay Bronze is outfitted with a mechanical movement developed and produced in-house by TUDOR. This is a variant of the TUDOR manufactured movement developed specifically to equip the Heritage Black Bay Bronze model. Slightly larger in diameter and displaying hours, minutes and seconds functions, it bears the reference MT5601, in which “MT” stands for “Manufacture TUDOR”.
Two of the most striking features of this special TUDOR watch are the unique case material and the choice of strap options that augment the overall aesthetics. The Heritage Black Bay Bronze features an imposing bronze case measuring 43mm in diameter and pays homage to the use of bronze in historic ships and diving equipment. TUDOR incorporates a high-performance, aluminum bronze alloy with brushed finishes that lends a functional appearance to the watch and guarantees the development of a subtle patina over time. As for the straps, this ultra-functional relic has a vintage-inspired feel circa 1960s and is recognizable by its central yellow thread that the beige and brown woven jacquard strap fitted to the Heritage Black Bay Bronze descends. And in keeping with the DNA characteristics of the Heritage collection, the watch is also accompanied by an aged brown leather strap with an angled cut to accentuate the rustic effect.
