The Tudor Black Bay Chrono Pink is the craziest Tudor watch since the Black Bay 18K in yellow gold. Not only does it take a robustly Millennial turn, but the Tudor Chronograph crosses over from motorsports to David Beckham's new Inter Miami CF venture. This luxury watch maintains its Rolex - Tudor bloodlines while adding a color rarely seen on men's watches.
The Tudor Black Bay Chronograph arrived in 2017, and its success has spawned panda dials, inverse panda dials, S&G, an All Black edition, and now the Black Bay Chrono Pink. This Tudor watch costs $5,500, but as of June 2024, it's unclear how many will be made, who will be able to buy it, and how long it will be offered. Tudor's official position is that each Black Bay Chrono Pink will be one of very few. The company's specific description of planned volume is that the watch will be "produced in limited numbers." Believe the brand.
Aside from a distinctive "pink panda" dial, this Tudor chronograph includes a new five-link bracelet similar to the one introduced on the Black Bay line in 2023. Similar to the Rolex Jubilee bracelet, the Tudor five-link endows the Chrono Pink with a more refined - even delicate - aesthetic not seen on previous models. While Beckham-branded, the Tudor Black Bay Chrono Pink is primarily the brainchild of Taiwanese designer and pop culture figure Jay Chou.
Mechanically, the Black Bay Chronograph Pink is identical to previous versions. Within its 41mm stainless steel case, Tudor's caliber MT5813 is a modified Breitling B01. Breitling features including automatic winding, a 70-hour power reserve, column wheel, vertical clutch, and COSC Swiss chronometer certification carry over. New Tudor-specific engineering changes include an anitmagnetic silicon hairspring, a free-sprung balance, and a minute counter that reads 45 minutes instead of 30. Water resistance remains rated to 200 meters.
Other watches discussed in this show include the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean, Panerai Submersible ELUX PAM 1800, Grand Seiko Spring Drive GMT SBGC249, 2024 Blancpain Fifty Fathoms, Breguet Marine 5547, Vacheron Constantin Overseas, Zenith Defy A3648 Revival, Jaeger LeCoultre Geophysic Universal Time, IWC Ingenieur 40, and Gronefeld DeltaWorks.
All of this plus live discussion and watch collector wrist shots appears tonight on "Watches Tonight!"
