TUDOR Black Bay 58 Gets the Master Chronometer Treatment

Watch collectors and enthusiasts alike have long held the Black Bay 58 in high regard – and now, TUDOR elevates this iconic swiss-made watch even further. The latest evolution of the Black Bay 58 makes its debut in striking burgundy, boasting Master Chronometer certification and offering three strap options; a 5-link bracelet, a 3-link bracelet, or a rubber strap. All three have TUDOR’s rapid adjustment system known as T-fit, making the watch more wearable than ever before.





A Nod to the Past with Modern Mastery


The Black Bay 58 takes its name from the historic TUDOR diver’s watch, reference 7924, released in 1958 – a watch known as the “Big Crown” for its oversized crown and professional-grade waterproofing. This modern reinterpretation keeps the classic 39mm stainless steel case, reflecting the proportions and style of mid-century TUDOR dive watches.

The new Black Bay 58 watch pays tribute to a never-released TUDOR prototype from the 1990s, reviving its deep burgundy colourway across the dial and bezel. This rich, satin-brushed finish contrasts beautifully with silver accents and the distinctive “snowflake” hands, first introduced by TUDOR in 1969. The result is a truly timeless swiss-made watch that honours TUDOR’s legacy while embracing the best of modern watchmaking.





Elevated Performance: Certified Master Chronometer


This Black Bay 58 isn’t just a visual standout – it’s now a fully certified Master Chronometer. Rigorously tested by the Swiss Federal Institute of Metrology (METAS), the new TUDOR Black Bay 58 exceeds industry benchmarks for accuracy, magnetic resistance, water resistance, and power reserve.

Housed within is the TUDOR Manufacture Calibre MT5400-U, featuring a silicon hairspring and an impressive 65-hour power reserve. This Swiss automatic watch doesn’t just look the part – it performs at the highest level, with precision tested in six positions, at multiple temperatures, and under exposure to 15,000 gauss of magnetic force.
