TUDOR watches were designed to be used by mariners and divers. The brand has formed partnerships with naval companies around the world, such as the US and French Navies.
The Launch of the Submariner
The first divers’ watch from TUDOR was the Oyster Prince Submariner. The watch debuted in 1954. It was created to be waterproof, reliable, and durable.
Since its inception, the Submariner has evolved. The design has gotten improved and tweaked so it can meet the requirements of various types of divers.
The second era of Submariner watches began in 1969. The main difference between this watch and the first version was its new face.

Pelagos
The TUDOR Pelagos watch combines urban sophistication with innovative technology. The Pelagos features a titanium bracelet. The bracelet includes a steel folding clasp that has an auto-adjustable spring mechanism.
The spring system allows the watch bracelet to get adjusted while you’re diving. The spring contracts as it gets compressed at greater depths. It then expands as the pressure decreases as the diver goes back to the surface.
The Pelagos also includes a rubber strap. The rubber strap is equipped with an extension system, allowing you to easily adjust it in any diving condition.
This watch features “Snowflake” hands. The hour hand is the characteristic TUDOR square tip. The wearer can easily tell it apart from the minute hand at a glance. This design is known as the “Snowflake.”
The TUDOR Manufacture Calibers powers the Pelagos models. This system provides wearers with precise and robust performance. The watch features a power reserve of 70 hours.
Some Pelagos models include an instantaneous jump date display that’s visible through an aperture at the 3:00 spot. You’ll also find a helium escape valve on some of the watches. They’re guaranteed to have a depth of 500 meters.
Black Bay
The Black Bay model from TUDOR illustrates the brand’s technical expertise. It’s an extraordinary watch that has a case in matte black ceramic. It also has a Master Chronometer certification from METAS.
The Black Bay watch pays homage to past models in the TUDOR line. Its crystal, domed dial, and general lines found inspiration from the first TUDOR dive watches.
It includes a prominent winding crown that comes from the Big Crown watch from 1958. The angular, “Snowflake” hands were borrowed from the TUDOR watches the French National Navy used during the 1970s.
The Manufacture Calibre powers the Black Bay watch. The finish is entirely black, emphasizing its distinct look.
You can choose from a fabric strap, aged leather strap, or steel bracelet for this watch. The steel bracelet was reworked from the brand’s bracelets during the 1950s and 60s.
