First launched in 2012 and given the Manufacture Calibre treatment in 2016, the Black Bay cements the aesthetic and technical future of the line, evident in the third-generation Burgundy and new monochromatic Black Bay. This emblematic mainstay of the TUDOR collection is another example of TUDOR's cutting-edge watchmaking technology imbued with design elements inspired by TUDOR’s nearly seven-decade heritage of making robust professional diving watches.

The Black Bay remains one of TUDOR’s most recognized and recognizable models. Featuring dials inspired by the TUDOR divers’ watches produced during the 1950s, it borrows the characteristic angular hands known to collectors as “Snowflake” from models that appeared in the brand’s 1969 catalogue. Its shoulderless crown and the characteristics of its case are reminiscent of the first generations of TUDOR divers' watches.
The Black Bay line is the result of the subtle blend of traditional aesthetics and contemporary watchmaking. Far from simply being an identical re-release of a classic, it brings together 70 years of TUDOR dive watches, whilst at the same time being resolutely anchored in the present. It is neo-vintage in conception, yet its manufacturing techniques, reliability, robustness and the quality of its finishes are consistent with today's more rigorous requirements.
