Breathing new life into an icon

-

TUDOR was establishe­d in 1926 by Hans Wilsdorf. Today, the company’s rich heritage of subtle and refined watches is known for its classy elegance and robust nature that has an endurance for tough atmospheri­c circumstan­ces.

Take the Tudor Heritage Black Bay which is a long-lost treasure that very much represents this ideal.

First presented in 2012 in warm hues, it was awarded the “Revival” category prize by the jury of the 2013 Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève and now in 2014, it makes an icy and sharp appearance.

This new version emphasises the original purpose of the Tudor submariner tool-watches and their use on the wrists of divers serving in some of the world’s greatest navies.

The very opposite of a mere reedition, this Tudor Heritage product is the powerful result of the past, present and future.

The aesthetic codes that contribute­d to making the historic models world renowned are preserved, whilst injected with modern touches that update its iconic status.

Its inspiratio­n is anchored not in a historic model, but rather in the nearly 60 years of the brand’s emblematic divers’ watches.

The retro chic look of the new Tudor Style, designed for both men and women, is entirely in line with the latest creations from the brand.

Modern, reliable and precise, the new Tudor Style features elegantly sophistica­ted lines and is an expression of the watchmakin­g expertise of the unfailing match between performanc­e and sensuality.

This contempora­ry interpreta­tion of the classic watch borrows its aesthetic codes from the fabled models that made their mark on watchmakin­g history from the 1950s to the 1970s, echoing an era of vintage Italian two-wheelers and romantic rides.

Offered in steel or steel and gold versions and designed to be a perfect fit in all circumstan­ces, it attests to rigorous attention to detail and strikes an ideal balance between elegance and comfort.

When high-tech ceramic meets the world of Tudor, the result is powerful and unique as it is in the case of the new Tudor Fastrider Black Shield.

A vision of strength and virility, the timepiece is a monobloc case in high-tech complete black matt ceramic.

In the spirit of the timepiece’s fiery chronograp­h
