Rolex founder Hans Wilsdorf launched the Tudor Watch Company in 1946 in an effort to offer the public reliable timepieces at affordable prices. Since 2015, Tudor has been manufacturing in-house movements to much acclaim.

Tudor keeps things simple…and simply remarkable.

Always one to excel in back-to-basics design strategies, this Black Bay 54 dive piece will serve you well, on land and exploring the watery deep.

First, its fabulous 200 m / 20 atm water resistance allows you to go where you please, and the screw-down winding crown and unidirectionally rotating bezel with 10-minute increments ensures you arrive in one piece.

Gold-tone luminous hands and applied luminous hour markers make for easy viewing in low light. The minute track in orange is especially dashing against the deep black-color dial.

The stainless steel case measures 37 mm in diameter, 11.2 mm in height, and rests upon a black rubber strap with a folding buckle. There is a domed scratch-resistant sapphire crystal.

As a self-winding automatic timepiece, this watch is driven by Tudor’s own MT5400 caliber, which is an officially certified chronometer and delivers 28,800 vph, possesses 27 jewels, and gives you a generous 70 hours of power.

From its expert craftsmanship to its classic stylings, we believe this Tudor Black Bay 54 will make a solid addition to your collection.

Standout feature(s): Fabulous 200 m / 20 atm water resistance; convenient 70-hour power reserve; certified chronometer accuracy.
