ADVENTURER SPIRIT AND TECHNICAL AESTHETICS
Tudor watches have been chosen by the brave adventurers throughout the brand’s history. Seventy years ago, it was Tudor’s watch that was worn on the wrists of 30 explorers who embarked on a two-year North Greenland expedition from the United Kingdom to study the Arctic icefield. The founder of Tudor, Hans Wilsdorf, provided the watch to the expedition members. Hans, who had just created the brand’s first waterproof, self-winding model, the Oyster Prince, thought that there was no better environment for testing the performance of watches than in the harsh climate of the Arctic Circle. Black Bay Pro is a watch entrusted with the heritage of the instrument that supported the life of an adventurer full of pioneer spirit. A tool watch designed for professionals. While belonging to the Black Bay collection, this model incorporates many unique new design details. For example, the crown has been redesigned for maximum grip. Reminiscent of the curves drawn by the crown of Tudor’s historic technical watch, this new component is structured along the sides of the middle case so that the tube is not visible. The monoblock luminescent ceramic applied hour marker is also one of the new features. This new element not only greatly expands the light emitting surface of the hour marker, but also makes the functional beauty of Black Bay Pro stand out more. In addition, it is equipped with a “T-fit” adjusting system that enables self-size adjustment. With a simple tool-free operation, the wearer can now adjust the length of 8 mm in 5 steps.
TWO TIME ZONES
At Black Bay Pro, a yellow “snowflake” hand that goes around the dial for 24 hours points to the wearer’s home time. Local time is indicated by the shorter “snowflake” hands, which are jumping hour and can be adjusted either forward or backward. The date displayed in the window at 3 o’clock is linked to the hour hand for local time, so if you reverse this hand at midnight during time adjustment, the numbers in the window will instantly jump to the previous day. It’s a special and sophisticated feature that is truly practical for the wearer.
THE MANUFACTURE CALIBRE MT5652
The Black Bay Pro is equipped with the integrated manufacturer caliber MT5652 with a built-in GMT function developed by Tudor. The adoption of the Manufacture movement, which has a structure that was supposed to incorporate new functions from the time of development, rather than relying on modules to be added later, shows the technological development process that Tudor is particular about. It has a Swiss official chronometer certification, and the certification is based on a daily difference of -4 seconds to +6 seconds in the state of the movement, but Tudor also has a daily difference when assembled as a wristwatch. It has achieved the higher standard of -2 seconds to +4 seconds.
STEEL BRACELET OR JACQUARD-WOVEN OR LEATHER STRAP
A fabric strap from Julian Fall, a family-owned company in Saint-Etienne, France, for over 150 years. The Black Bay Pro uses a black fabric strap with a yellow centerline. The model also offers a choice of steel rivet bracelets inspired by models from the 1950s and 1960s. A historic bracelet known for its unique design created by the staircase links and the rivet heads used to fasten them. Modern bracelets use state-of-the-art manufacturing methods to integrate solid links with laser-machined riveted heads to recreate the two features of the renowned bracelet. Yet another option is a black leather and rubber hybrid strap with a folding clasp.

It’s a special and sophisticated feature that is truly practical for the wearer. Furthermore, by using a combination of a bidirectional rotating bezel with a 24-hour scale and a 24-hour hand, it is possible to grasp even the third time zone.
