As Rolex's sister company, Tudor is generally known for a more conservative approach to watch designs. However in recent years, they have demonstrated a willingness to explore innovative ideas, particularly in their choice of case materials.
One notable example is the use of 925 silver, which is a very rare occurrence in watchmaking. Silver is not commonly seen in watch cases due to its relatively soft nature and susceptibility to tarnishing, it is also more expensive than steel but not as precious as white gold or platinum. However, Tudor has embraced the spirit of "Born to Dare" and introduced a watch with a silver case, along with a matching taupe grey dial and bezel. The warmer color tone creates a distinct presence on the wrist.
This particular reference also features a sapphire display case back, a rarity in Tudor’s dive watches which allows for an unobstructed view of the in-house calibre MT5400 movement. Offered in a very attractive condition, the surface has developed a layer of tarnish throughout, adding a unique character to the watch. An interesting twist on a classic dive watch, this timepiece is a perfect choice for everyday wear with a touch of playfulness.
