At the Rolex HQ in Geneva we filmed the Tudor models 2021 in 4K. One of them is the new Black Bay Chronograph. This is an astonishing and super cool timepiece to mark 50 years of the brands chronographs. What you get in terms of design, make and quality is stunning and the price for the Black Bay Chronograph is simply unbelievable.

To mark 50 years of its chronographs, Tudor is relaunching its Black Bay Chrono model in steel with a reworked case and two dial options with contrasting sub-counters in the purest tradition of the sports chronograph.
Since the launch in 1970 of the Oysterdate model, its first chronograph, Tudor has always produced watches that are closely tied to the world of motor sport. Since 1954, Tudor has likewise been constantly improving its professional divers’ watches. The Black Bay Chrono model combines these traditions in a sports chronograph for purists, with contrasting sub-counters and a high-performance automatic Manufacture Calibre, with column wheel and vertical clutch.
These are the KEY POINTS of the new Tudor Black Bay Chrono
