Release: TUDOR Black Bay Pro – There’s A New GMT On The Block!
With a 39mm diameter

Whenever it is time for Baselworld Watches & Wonders, you can find me hovering around the TUDOR booth. They usually have something nice or odd to present, at prices that will not create too big an argument at the dinner table when returning home… TUDOR is a brand that is not afraid to take risks, makes robust wristwatches, offers excellent value, and does not suffer from the same waiting list drama that its bigger brother does. If you see something you like, chances are that you will indeed get what you want with just a little bit of patience.

However, TUDOR just released an extremely attractive and perfectly proportioned GMTGMT A GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) complication is a feature found in some watches that allows the wearer to track two time zones simultaneously. It typically includes a 24-hour hand and a bezel or a second hour hand that can be adjusted independently of the main hour hand to track the time in a different time zone. [Learn More] today. And I am expecting people will have to play the waiting list game for this fantastic, and nicely priced, new addition to the TUDOR family. A modern-looking Tudor GMT in 39mm. Yes, it does have strong Rolex Explorer II vibes, but I don’t think that is a bad thing. This is not TUDOR’s first foray into the GMT realm. Not too long ago, TUDOR released the Black Bay GMT which set the internet on fire for a couple of months as well.

This being a GMT, the reference time is shown by the yellow hand. The local time is indicated by the shorter (familiar-looking) snowflake hand. It is this shorter hour hand that you can quickly set to whichever local time zone is applicable when your airplane lands. The caliberCaliber The caliber ('movement') is the heart and engine of a watch. It consists of a number of interconnected components that work together. Energy is transmitted through the gear train, to the escapement mechanism. The escapement mechanism releases this energy in a controlled manner. This drives the gear train, which ultimately rotates the hands of the watch and keeps time. [More Info] features a jumping hour which can be set both forwards and backwards, so adjusting to the new time zone is a breeze (from a horological point of view). As per Tudor “the date, displayed through an aperture positioned at 3 o’clock, is coupled with the local time hand so that when setting the time and passing midnight in retrograde, it instantly jumps to the previous day”.

The watch is powered by the Manufacture Calibre MT5652. According to TUDOR it was developed by TUDOR specifically for the Black Bay Pro model. The power reserveRéserve de marche Also known as Power Reserve. A watch's power reserve refers to the amount of time a mechanical watch can run without being wound. The power reserve of a mechanical watch can vary depending on the size of the mainspring, the efficiency of the gear train, and the rate at which the mainspring releases energy. If a watch has a Power Reserve 'complication' it simply means that the status of the power reserve can be seen on the watch itself (either on the dial or movement side of the watch).
