Now available to shop in the TUDOR Boutique, Queen's Arcade, Belfast. The Black Bay Chrono is already a daring design, and with this boutique exclusive, it now features a “TUDOR Blue” dial that adds a distinct, very brand-specific character.

The Black Bay Chrono model combines these traditions in a sports chronograph for pursuits, with contrasting sub-counters and a high-performance automatic Manufacture Calibre. This boutique exclusive features a dial that taps into TUDOR's rich tradition of incorporating blue dials into all the lines of the collection.

The clasp also features ceramic ball bearings that ensure a smooth and secure closure in addition to adding a pleasing tactile element to the action of the clasp.

Like other models in the Black Bay range, the Black Bay Chrono has adopted TUDOR's characteristic angular hands known as "Snowflake" that first appeared in the brand's 1969 catalogue. The result of a subtle blend of traditional aesthetics and contemporary watchmaking, the Black Bay line is far from simply being an identical rerelease of a classic. Resolutely anchored in the present, it brings together almost seven decades of TUDOR divers' watches. Whilst it is neo-vintage in conception, its manufacturing techniques and robustness, reliability, durability and precision as well as the quality of its finish are above modern industry standards.
