Join us as we bring you the latest updates, highlights, and new releases directly from Geneva.
TUDOR
2025 is a standout year for TUDOR, bringing bold updates and serious performance to its most iconic collections.
From the all-new 43mm Black Bay with Master Chronometer certification, to the Pelagos Ultra built for 1000m depths, TUDOR pushes boundaries like never before.
Add to that a fresh Black Bay 58 in burgundy, a refined Black Bay Pro, and the Black Bay Chrono on a new five-link bracelet—this year’s releases are all about strength, style, and innovation.
Black Bay 58
This latest version of the Black Bay 58 brings a fresh burgundy look to the iconic collection, inspired by a never-produced TUDOR Submariner prototype from the 1990s. It features a striking burgundy dial and matching bezel, with a unidirectional rotatable bezel designed for easy grip and subtly curved numerals that follow the shape of the outer ring.
Beyond its bold design, the new Black Bay 58 is now Master Chronometer certified by METAS. This means it meets the highest standards in precision, magnetic resistance, waterproofness, and power reserve—a major milestone that blends heritage style with modern performance.
Pelagos Ultra
The new Pelagos Ultra pushes limits with a bold 43mm titanium case and an impressive 1,000m depth rating, built specifically for deep-sea diving. Made from both Grade 2 and Grade 5 titanium, the case is lightweight yet incredibly strong, and features a compact helium escape valve for use in saturation diving conditions.
Designed with legibility in mind, the dial has been scaled up with larger markers, thicker hands, and dual-color luminescence—green for the minute hand and bezel PIP, and blue for the rest—ensuring optimal visibility in the darkest conditions. The bracelet has also been fully reengineered, making the Pelagos Ultra not just a tool watch, but a serious piece of dive equipment.
Black Bay 68
The new Black Bay 68 expands the collection with a larger case size, offering a bold alternative for those who prefer a more substantial watch on the wrist. Its name nods to 1968, the year TUDOR introduced the now-iconic Snowflake hand, which quickly became a signature design feature. That same spirit lives on in this model, now paired with a fresh TUDOR Blue dial that adds a vibrant touch to the classic aesthetic.
Backed by METAS Master Chronometer certification, the Black Bay 68 meets the highest standards for precision, magnetic resistance, water resistance, and power reserve. It’s a perfect blend of heritage design and modern watchmaking performance, proving that when TUDOR thinks big, it delivers.
Black Bay Pro
The Black Bay Pro gets a bold update with a new opaline dial, designed to improve legibility in all environments. The dial features black-outlined ceramic hour markers and hands for strong contrast, while the signature yellow 24-hour Snowflake hand remains a clear visual link to TUDOR’s heritage. The watch retains its rugged 24-hour fixed bezel and is powered by the MT5652 Manufacture Calibre, offering a built-in GMT function.
Perfect for travel or exploration, the movement allows you to independently set the local hour hand forward or backward, with the date automatically adjusting even in reverse. The Black Bay Pro continues to be a practical, adventure-ready tool watch—now with a cleaner, more readable look.
Black Bay Chrono
The Black Bay Chrono is powered by the TUDOR Manufacture Calibre MT5813, a high-performance movement featuring hour, minute, second, chronograph, and date functions. It’s built for precision and durability, with a tungsten monobloc rotor, satin-brushed and sand-blasted finishes, and refined laser detailing throughout.
For comfort and flexibility, the watch is available on either a 3-link rivet-style bracelet, inspired by vintage TUDOR designs from the 1950s and ’60s, or a modern 5-link bracelet. Both come fitted with the TUDOR “T-fit” rapid adjustment clasp, offering tool-free fine adjustment across five positions and up to 8mm, for an ideal fit all day long.

The case, pushers and crown crafted from 18-carat 5N gold are combined with gold-plated appliques and gold-plated hands filled with white Super-LumiNova®. The black dial with a lacquer finish is the result of a highly engineered production process, with the totalisers at 3, 6 and 9 o’clock being individually finished and printed.

These models showcase the brand’s expertise in skeletonization, luminescence, and material craftsmanship, offering a fresh interpretation of technical watchmaking.
Skeletonization is more than an aesthetic choice—it’s a demonstration of precision engineering. Each BR-03 Skeleton is powered by the BR-CAL.328 automatic movement, specially developed for Bell & Ross, featuring a 54-hour power reserve. The movement’s X-shaped structure, extending from the bridges to the four bezel screws, reinforces the watch’s architectural design while enhancing transparency.
