TUDOR
BLACK BAY PRO
R ooted in a legacy that began in 1926 with founder Hans Wilsdorf’s vision to create Swiss‑made tool watches of uncompromising reliability, the Black Bay line embodies over sixty years of TUDOR diver heritage — robust instruments trusted by explorers on land, underwater and on ice. Building on the Black Bay Pro’s robust reputation, this new version retains the 39mm diameter case, fixed steel bezel and Manufacture Calibre with built‑in GMT function.
So what’s new? A distinct new opaline dial with visual touches make the Black Bay Pro extremely legible.
VERSATILITY FOR ANY EXPEDITION The watch is offered on three distinct bracelets: a black Jacquard fabric strap, a hybrid rubber‑and‑leather strap, or a riveted 316L steel bracelet with the TUDOR “T‑fit” clasp for rapid adjustment in the field. And like all TUDOR timepieces, it carries a five‑year transferable guarantee with no registration or periodic maintenance required. Anchored in history, built for today — the new Black Bay Pro honors TUDOR’s legacy of tool‑watch innovation while pushing the line forward with its most legible dial yet. Whether polar or subterranean, it’s engineered for explorers who demand clarity at a glance, wherever the journey leads.
THE ESSENCE OF BLACK BAY The Black Bay’s design language borrows from the first TUDOR divers’ watches of the 1950s, carrying forward the characteristic angular “Snowflake” hands that first appeared in the 1969 catalogue. Its unprotected crown and case proportions recall those early tool watches, yet this is no simple re‑release. Black Bay blends six decades of tradition with modern watchmaking — robust, reliable, and finished to the standards of today’s most demanding adventurers. A TECHNICAL EVOLUTION BENEATH THE SURFACE Powering the Black Bay Pro is the COSC‑certified Manufacture Calibre MT5652, equipped with a silicon balance spring and a 70‑hour power reserve. Its 24‑hour graduated fixed bezel, paired with the GMT hand, makes tracking multiple time zones intuitive, a hallmark of professional‑grade functionality.
