Rolex & The Open: Golf’s Oldest Major

Traditionally contested in the United Kingdom during the third week of July, The Open is the fourth and final tournament that makes up the men’s annual Majors.

The partnership between Rolex and golf began in 1967 when Arnold Palmer became the sport’s first Testimonee. The brand has since been named Official Timekeeper and is a principal partner of many leading events and stakeholders in the game.

Inaugurated in 1860, The Open is played every year on a historical course in the United Kingdom. The tournament regularly comes to St Andrews, as was the case for the 150th Open Championship.

THE HOME OF GOLF

The Royal & Ancient Golf Club of St Andrews is one of the oldest golf clubs in the world. In the late 19th century, it came to be regarded as a governing authority of the sport including in the administration of its rules, in conjunction with the United States Golf Association. St Andrews is considered by many to be “the home of golf”.

STEEPED IN ELEGANCE AND TRADITION

Tradition has it that The Open is always played on a links course, that is, one located by the sea, featuring sandy soil and few water hazards or trees. Given the particularly unpredictable nature of the weather conditions, the 156 players competing in the tournament every year need their fair share of fighting spirit, self-control and humility given the potential for heavy showers, strong gusts of wind and even heatwave conditions.

The winner of The Open is announced as “The Champion Golfer of the Year” and receives the prestigious Claret Jug. This famous silver trophy has appeared on bank notes issued by the Royal Bank of Scotland twice.

UNFORGETTABLE MOMENTS

With its unique past, the wild beauty of the coastal courses where it is played and its knowledgeable fans, The Open is forever etched in the great history of world sport from the duels of Bobby Jones and Walter Hagen in the 1920s to the between Tom Watson and Jack Nicklaus in 1977, or the tears of Tiger Woods upon winning his third trophy in 2006.

ROLEX AND GOLF: PARTNERS FOR MORE THAN HALF A CENTURY Rolex enjoys a privileged relationship with golf, one founded on shared values: respect for tradition, responsibility, technical precision, the elegance of movement, the perpetual quest for excellence and a commitment to future generations.

Today, the partnership between Rolex and golf extends to many areas of the sport: with governing bodies and world rankings, with the greatest names in international golf, and with the circuits and Major tournaments both men’s and women’s, professional and amateur, at senior and junior levels.

Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer and Gary Player, multible-time winners at The Open.

Jordan Spieth. Winner of The Open in 2017.

Moreover, the brand has also championed the creation of: the Rolex Series, the finest tournaments on the DP World Tour; the Rolex Player of the Year award which recognizes the best woman golfer on the LPGA circuit; and the Rolex Junior Players of the Year awards, which honour players aged 18 or younger, boy and girl, who perform best in a given season. Undeniably, Rolex has become “the partner watch of world golf”.

TIGER WOODS

A winner of 15 Majors, he has triumphed at The Open on three occasions, including twice at St Andrews.

ROYAL PORTRUSH

The venue in Northern Ireland hosted The Open in 1951 and 2019.

TOM WATSON

Between 1975 and 1983, he won The Open five times, with four victories on Scottish soil and one in England.

ROLEX TESTIMONEES AND THE OPEN

Among the many great names in golf who belong to the prestigious family of Rolex Testimonees, several have won The Open: Gary Player, Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus, Tom Watson, Tiger Woods and Jordan Spieth.

ROLEX AND SPORT

Hans Wilsdorf believed in challenging oneself and held a lofty view of sport’s role in society. To test his watches, he entrusted them to those who pushed themselves to the absolute limit. Driven by an unwavering quest for excellence, the founder of Rolex discovered valuable allies in athletes through their exceptional feats.

For many decades, the brand has actively championed culture, architecture, exploration and planetary conservation. And in the sporting world, it has built a diverse range of partnerships across tennis, golf, equestrianism, skiing, sailing and motor sport. Rolex partners governing bodies, competitions and athletes from established champions to promising talents in long-standing engagements that perpetuate the future of these disciplines and promote excellence.

Associated with this competition since 1981, Rolex is today a privileged partner of world golf.

A New Generation of Planet PROBLEM

Three Rolex Laureates tell us how they are tackling some of the world's biggest problems

In 1976 Rolex’s ground-breaking Oyster watch, the world’s first waterproof watch, celebrated its 50th anniversary. To honor the stellar achievement that changed the world of watchmaking, Rolex launched a new program, the Rolex Awards for Enterprise.

The award is as singular as the watch it pays tribute to. It is given to remarkable men and women who are tackling challenges in unique, inventive ways as they attempt to solve problems such as climate change, pollution, health care, or the imperiled state of the ocean. The award winners draw on personal reserves of enterprising and innovative spirit, the same

qualities that Rolex prides itself on possessing.

The awards stand out for another very important reason as well—they are given to those who would not otherwise have access to traditional fundraising, due in part to the originality and uniqueness of each winners’ pioneering visions. Nearly 1000 hopefuls apply each year to receive the award, out of which only five are chosen.

Since its inception Rolex has awarded 155 exceptional winners. Here are three of the awardees who, with Rolex’s support, are dedicated to making the world a better place.

Rolex Laureates Felix Brooks-church, Miranda Wang and Gina Moseley

FELIX BROOKS-CHURCH

HIS MISSION: SOLVING POOR NUTRITION

One of the saddest statistics of our time is that 15,000 children die worldwide each and every day, largely due to poor nutrition.

Enough, thought Felix Brooks-church. So he came up with a solution to stop the tragic losses of life. He worked out a way to solve the nutrition crisis by adding basic nutrients—Vitamin B12, folic acid, iron, and zinc—to a universal diet staple, flour. He started a program in Tanzania, patenting a “dosifier”, a device that looks like an electronic scale, that releases precise quantities of nutrients as the bags are being filled with flour in small, local flour mills, mills often overlooked by any sort of government assistance.

Brooks-church’s program has taken off and helps nourish two million people a day, and all for a reasonable cost. Less than $1 dollar will fortify food for one person—a child, mother or baby--for an entire year.

Brooks-church was struck with the pervasiveness and devastat-

ing result poor nutrition can have on health and life itself when he volunteered to run a program in Cambodia to get children off the streets and into safe environments. He saw first-hand the toll that poor nutrition took on the youngsters. “These children were often sick. They had weak immune systems, low IQs, learning disabilities and some died from things that you should not die from.”

The program is set to expand to other countries. “What we are doing is not just adding nutrients to food,” Brooks-church said. “What we are doing is ensuring a basic human right, to good nutrition.”

MIRANDA WANG

HER MISSION: SOLVING PLASTIC POLLUTION

In 2010 Miranda Wang’s high school environmental club took a field trip to a local landfill in Vancouver. The teenager was appalled by what she saw: mountains of trash representing only two or three days of Vancouver’s municipal waste—and mountains contained mostly plastic. She was even more horrified when she learned that this heap of garbage would soon be carted away to other landfill, or be incinerated or, more likely, dumped in the ocean and replaced with a new monumental collection of polluting plastic waste.

Wang and her fellow student Jeanny Yao knew something had to be done, and decided that they could do it. They came up with a solution: why not utilize a bacteria that would feed on plastic to eliminate the problem. With the help of a professor, they located two such bacterium in a local river.

For more than four decades, through the Rolex Awards for Enterprise, Rolex has supported exceptional individuals who have the courage and conviction to take on major challenges.

Felix Brooks-church

The plan, while brilliant and effective, could not readily be applied on the global scale that Wang and Yao wanted, and that the world needs. So they developed another strategy, using recycling technologies that transform the plastic into quality materials that can be used on a grand scale and tapped to make other products, like perfume.

The program is currently undergoing a pilot run in San Jose, California, before being rolled out on a bigger scale to tackle the worldwide problem of the 340 million metric tons of plastic being produced every year. By 2050, unless something drastic is done, there will be 12 billion metric tons of plastic in landfills. Wang credits the Rolex Award for Enterprise with helping the solution she and Yao developed go global. “Rolex has shone a light on the work we do, and boosted my fundraising to scale up this new technological invention.”

GINA MOSELEY

HER MISSION: SOLVING GLOBAL WARMING

In the north of Greenland there are caves that are so distant and difficult to reach that they have only ever been spotted at a distance, but never entered. Gina Moseley and a team of six explorers are determined to do so for a very important reason; each cave holds a treasure trove of information that could help prevent our earth from literally drowning.

That’s the premise and the promise of Artic explorer Mosely. The caves are believed to hold calcite deposits known as speleothems. “Caves are like time machines,” Mosely told Rolex. “Calcite forms layers, like tree rings. We can analyze each layer to get information about the past climate.” From studying past cooling and warming periods, scientists can gain insight into the impact the current melting of the polar caps will have on everything from rainfall patterns to ocean currents.

And what a past the northern caves will provide. Currently scientists are studying ice cores that are “only” 28,000 years old. The speleothems Mosely plans to reach are anticipated to date back half a million years.

The work is vital and can’t come a moment too soon. Polar regions are heating up twice as fast as other areas on the earth. In 2019 so much of the ice in Greenland melted that it added 12 billion tons of water to the ocean in one day. Said Mosely “The Rolex Awards are pretty much the only program out there that could or would support such an expedition.”

HolidayGIFT Guide

“The Rolex Explorer II is a classic. It is steeped in history and has a timeless design. I like how the crisp white dial really lets the bright orange GMT hand stand out. This watch is designed for adventure, one ready for any meaningful achievement.” Rick

“My holiday pick for this year is the Bremont MBIII. The design of the MBIII is iconic! It has the same function as a traditional GMT, but with the double crown, internal rotating bezel, the ejection seat pull tab on the seconds hand, and the practical/legible layout, it sets itself apart from the group. Another thing I love about this watch is the customizable underbarrel. Bremont offers an assortment of colors that you could select for the barrel of your watch which makes it a custom piece to some extent.”

-Chris

’This Thoroughbred design embodies David’s lifelong passions for sculpture and all things equestrian. In 18k yellow gold these hoops make a perfect addition to any wardrobe.” -Trent “Marco Bicego’s Lunaria Collection is classic. A favorite of mine, the collection shows the signature hand engraving which is made with the traditional “Bulino”, an ancient tool devised for the art of hand carving. This technique sets Marco Bicego apart, making each handmade piece truly unique, just like the woman who wears it.” -Kathy

“”I love FOPE's Flex-It bracelet for all the obvious reasons! Its stretchy, roll-on construction makes it incredibly easy to wear; it's important enough to wear alone or can be stacked with all your other arm candy. My pick from the Eka collection is especially fabulous because of the distinguished high-polished links.” -Caitlin

THE LORING & CO.TEAM shares their personal picks for the best pieces to give the jewelry and watch lovers on your list.

“Meticulously crafted by Kwiat in 18 karat gold, this ring features 3 rows of sparking diamonds that literally dance in the sunlight! Internationally known for their superior diamond cutting, the ring gives evidence to Kwiat’s obsession with quality and excellence of design.” -Eleanor

“Layering jewelry is a favorite of mine when helping my clients create fresh looks. Mixing different textures, colors, or a little sparkle to pieces people already own breathes new life into their wardrobe. I love this Roberto Coin emerald cut solitaire diamond necklace for just that reason. It is available in 18kt. white, yellow, and rose gold, has two different diamond size options (0.17tcw or 0.37tcw) and is available to be worn either 16” or 18”. This makes it an excellent option for those wanting to layer or to simply add a touch of sparkle to an outfit.” -Jason

“Stacking jewelry of any style is quite popular and Sethi Couture leads the way with their amazing stackable rings. They are great for adding to your wedding ring or creating a beautiful right-hand stack. The limitless options of metal materials and diamond cuts allow you to build something that is truly one-of-a-kind and absolutely stunning!” -Zack

“The Hercules Knot Bracelet is a perfect example of Ilias Lalaounis’ tradition of elegance in form and function. The Hercules Knot, a symbol of strength and love from ancient times, is a timeless motif that is beautifully represented in this 18K yellow gold hinged bracelet.” -Jody “

“The new Tudor Ranger is an instant classic. This watch is one of the most historic in the Tudor line and this year’s rerelease brought many amazing upgrades. The Ranger’s low profile and streamlined design makes it ideal for everyday wear. It is available on bracelet, fabric strap, or their new hybrid rubber strap that is perfect for a more relaxed look!”

-Curt

Cable Edge is the first DY collection to be certified as using 100% recycled metals. The Cable Edge collection experiments with angles, facets and torque, transforming smooth curves into finely sculpted lines – evoking Evan Yurman’s early pieces. Offered for both men and women, these modern designs are crafted from recycled sterling silver or 18K yellow gold, with hand-set diamonds carefully placed to amplify Cable Edge’s fluting.”

Diamond Master

Igrew up with diamonds all around me,” Greg Kwiat said as he sat at his desk in Kwiat’s offices on Manhattan’s tony Madison Avenue. “On school holidays my brothers and I would go into the office with my father. We were paid to crawl around on the floor and see if one of the jewelers had dropped a 1 or 2 point diamond. If we found one, we’d get $1. ”On a good day, each boy could make $7 or $8, and receive an even more valuable recompense—a feeling they were contributing value to the family business.

Greg Kwiat’s leap from diamond scavenger to CEO of the family diamond firm wasn’t always inevitable. “I joined in 2004, after 5 years at Goldman Sachs,” he explained. His father Lowell is Chairman, his brother Russell the COO and his other brother Cory, the Chief Digital Officer. “In a family business we all collaborate,” Greg said. The secret to working together, he continued, is “having respect for each others’contributions.”

It's a formula that works. The Kwiat diamond business was started 115 years ago by Greg’s great grandfather, Sam Kwiat, a diamond trader. “In the 1930s my grandfather, David, started designing jewelry, making classic things like engagement rings and ear studs.”

Kwiat also started supplying diamonds and making jewelry for the top luxury houses, like Harry Winston and Cartier. But in the 1990s that line of the business stopped and Kwiat started focusing on making a name for its own jewelry. Today there is a Kwiat diamond boutique further up Madison Avenue from the company’s offices, and Kwiat jewelry is also available at the country’s top luxury retailers.

One of the stars of retail is the Cluster Collection. “By mixing different shapes and sizes of diamonds we can create an elegant piece that has a larger scale and more texture and drama,” Greg explained. Referring to a floral cluster earring, he said “by grouping five pear shaped diamonds in an earring you create a very important look, but keep the price down.”

As CEO of a growing family business, Greg Kwiat grew up with diamonds all around him.

Rings with Kwiat Cushion™ diamonds

Greg Kwiat

The five diamonds in the cluster can deliver the same impact of one much larger, and much more expensive diamond.

“Cluster styles have a long place in our history,” Greg said. “They were a favorite of my grandfather, he loved a cluster. It’s in our DNA. This year we added a number of new designs to our Cluster Collection including some larger scale styles and some ‘front and back’ designs. In the front and back designs, part of the earring is on the ear as a stud and an additional part appears to float below the earlobe, connected to the top behind the ear. Some new clusters are extensions of our iconic American Beauty collection, which combine marquise and pear shape diamonds to create movement and texture.”

Kwiat is also renowned for its Kwiat Tiara cuts—a collection of exclusive cuts including the Kwiat Round™, Kwiat Cushion™, Fred Leighton Round™ and Ashoka These cuts return more light to the eye, creating a brighter looking stone that sparkles more,” Greg said. “The cut of a diamond is what unlocks its fire and brilliance, and the Kwiat Tiara cuts give the diamond the widest possible diameter to appear larger than other diamonds of comparable carat weight.”

The most recently introduced is the Kwiat Cushion™. “It is our proprietary elongated cushion shape, cut to ‘Kwiat perfection’ with maximum brilliance and beauty,” Greg explained. “It has been a tremendous success immediately from the launch, and we will build on that. “Kwiat diamonds earn the highest accolades possible.

Each round diamond has been awarded the Triple Excellent status from the GIA, the Gemological Institute of America which is the standard bearer of diamond quality. The Triple Excellent status applies to round diamonds that have been graded on cut, polish and symmetry. The grades range from Poor to Fair, Good, Very Good and Excellent. Kwiat’s round diamonds earn “Excellent” in all aspects.

It’s crystal clear: Whether creating a dramatic statement earring to ornament an evening gown for a black tie night, or a simple pair of diamond studs to wear every day with jeans and a t-shirt, the Kwiat diamonds used are of the highest quality.

Little wonder demand is growing and Kwiat plans to grow its retail presence. “Our future plans are to grow our partnerships with our local authorized dealers across the United States. The strength of the Kwiat brand is built on the discerning quality and fine reputations of our local partners. These relationships have always been at the core of our business, and growing them is the foundation of our future.”

Another plan for the future might be grooming a fifth generation of Kwiats to join the business. Greg’s and his brothers’ children are all still very young, (the oldest is 12), so it’s too early to predict their future talents and tastes. But just in case they might be headed to the family firm, they do as their fathers did. They visit the office and hunt for dropped diamonds, just like the generation before them— except now they receive $2 for each diamond discovered.

A Ladies WATCH for all Seasons

One of England’s premier watchmakers introduces the reimagined Lady K.

T he English have a long history of timepiece innovation. After all, the first mechanical clock was invented in England in 1275.

Bremont is in the forefront of the revitalized British watchmaking industry. Their signature mechanical ladies timepiece, the Lady K has been reimagined in an array of sunburst dials inspired by the British seasons. The Lady K in Jade green, Sky blue, Fawn bronze and Frost white come together to form an elegant collection of ladies' timepieces each framed by a diamond bezel set with 60 brilliant cut white diamonds with a total carat weight of 0.70 tcw. The 34mm stainless steel timepieces are crafted using Bremont's unique “Trip-Tick” case. The elegant 3 hand dial is punctuated by 11 diamond set baton indexes featuring 33 claw set brilliant VVS FG diamonds with a date window at 6 oclock. At Bremont, all diamonds are ethically sourced, following the Kimberly Process and are conflict free.

The distinctive hues evoke the color palette of the four British seasons. Jade reflects the British countryside in springtime, Sky for the brilliant blue skies of summer, Fawn for the amber light of autumn and Frost for the snow covered hills of the Chilterns in winter, an area of outstanding natural beauty where Bremont's Manufacturing & Technology Center: The Wing is situated.

Each dial is color-matched to a smart calf leather strap or an adjustable steel bracelet with a double-deploying clasp. Stylish yet practical, the domed anti-reflective sapphire crystal is scratch resistant along with a scratch resistant polished steel Trip-Tick case.

This is a timepiece to be worn and cherished, say co-founders Nick and Giles English.

The Lady K was named for the ship their father lovingly hand-built for

their mother. Nick recalls his mother sailing to Africa on The Lady K and being a woman who was as strong as she was creative. He comments, "We look back with fond memories to our time spent as a family on the Lady K and we're thrilled to celebrate those adventures with this elegant and robust timepiece.”

In keeping with the original Lady K design, Bremont has also introduced the compact timepiece in rose gold with a diamond set bezel and white mother of pearl dial. The ultra-feminine 18kt rose gold case is complemented by a vibrant pink, alligator-embossed, calf leather strap to stunning effect. This is the first full rose gold piece in Bremont women's collection.

Performance-wise, the Lady K boasts a 42-hour power reserve and features an automatic chronometer-rated movement, with 25 jewels, which can be seen through the exhibition case back.

The award-winning British luxury watch brand, manufactures mechanical watches in Henley-on-Thames, England. They have made a major investment in UK watchmaking. In 2021 they opened The Bremont Manufacturing & Technology Center, a new state-of-the-art 35,000 sq ft purpose-built facility enabling full in-house machining and manufacturing .

Founded in 2002, Bremont has made a substantial impact on the watchmaking industry in a very short period of time. The brand remains true to its original principles of: aviation and military, British engineering and adventure.

Bremont continues to play an influential role in the British watch industry, the birthplace of numerous timekeeping innovations still used today. The brand is now in the top handful of chronometer producers in the world.

The Lady K is available in the colors of the English seasons: Faun, Frost, Jade and Sky.

Elevating yourWATCH GAME

This year’s Tudor Black Bay novelties combine a tradition of the dive watches commissioned by the US Navy with new features and new flair.

The Tudor Watch Company has been producing watches ever since 1946, when Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex, decided to create a new brand with outstanding dependability and accuracy—but at a more affordable price point. The original advertising campaign for Tudor demonstrated its toughness. A Tudor watch was strapped to the wrist of a riveter operating a pneumatic jackhammer. After a month of shock treatment, the watch was removed from the riveter’s wrist and tested. It passed with flying colors.

Tudor soon became known for watches that were the height of functionality. That reputation was sealed when, in the late 1950s, the brand started supplying the US Navy with dive watches. In 1967, the US government requested a tactical diver’s watch that would meet a new set of specifications, and Tudor’s engineers conducted extensive research to fulfill the request.

When Tudor launched its Black Bay collection in 2012, it drew on the advances and performance of those esteemed dive watches, and on its classic aesthetic and vintage appeal. It was an unbeatable combination. Today, after only a decade on the market, the Black Bay stands out as Tudor’s best-selling watch.

Watch expert Elizabeth Doerr, editor in chief of the watch website QuillandPad.com, expressed her thoughts on what makes this timepiece so desirable. “The Tudor Black Bay has without a doubt worked its way into the hearts of every lover of tool watches. That’s not just because it’s the little sibling to Rolex and is infused with the same quality, but also because its design is perhaps a touch more modern—though it still wears its vintage values on its sleeve. Despite all that, I believe the two factors that make the Black Bay so darn popular are its ‘nice price’ and its availability to everyone.”

Each year Tudor adds new ideas and updates to its Black Bay collection. Besides the iconic dive watch, there are now Black Bay dress watches, chronographs, and a GMT (Greenwich Mean Time) model that displays both a 24-hour and a 12-hour timescale. This year’s models continue to offer plenty of news. But what remains the same:

Black Bay Pro.

all the new Black Bays come with a five-year transferable guarantee, with no requirement for registration or periodic maintenance checks. Also, the Black Bays sport Tudor’s “Snowflake” hands, a hallmark of its dive watches since 1969, with Grade A Swiss Super-LumiNova luminescent material for ultimate visibility. Most of the latest novelties also offer a choice of straps, ranging from a rubber-and-leather hybrid to comfortable fabric to a riveted steel bracelet with Tudor’s special “T-fit” clasp system to enable rapid adjustment. And these new Black Bays all contain Tudor’s own in-house manufactured movements.

Tudor’s newest Black Bays are available at authorized jewelers throughout the US.

BLACK BAY PRO The Black Bay Pro drew excited attention when it was unveiled this year in Geneva. It is an entirely new technical model with a fresh aesthetic and a dual time zone feature that displays the local time without losing sight of the time in another time zone. Compact, robust, and sporty, this model has many unique aesthetic details. It celebrates the spirit of the technical watches Tudor has produced for professionals throughout its history,   The details: A 24-hour-graduated, satin-brushed and polished case in stainless steel, 39 mm in diameter, with a 24-hour-graduated fixed bezel in stainless steel. The Black Bay Pro is powered by the Tudor Manufacture Calibre MT5652 with built-in GMT function.

BLACK BAY GMT Steel & Gold The iconic Black Bay GMT model is now available in an S&G (Steel & Gold) version, with warm colors and a nostalgic touch.

It has multiple time zones, a highly functional complication that establishes local time without losing sight of the time in two other time zones. Recognizable by its 24-hour-graduated rotating bezel with two colors, representing day and night, the Black Bay GMT S&G also gives a subtle aesthetic nod to the history of this watchmaking function.

The details: A satin-brushed and polished case in 316L stainless steel and yellow gold, 41 mm in diameter, with a bidirectional rotating

bezel in yellow gold and an insert in black and brown anodized aluminum as a hallmark of the GMT function. The Black Bay GMT S&G has a Manufacture Calibre MT5652, is COSC-certified with a silicon balance spring, and has a 70-hour power reserve.

BLACK BAY CHRONO Steel & Gold Tudor has been producing watches that are closely tied to the world of motor sport since the presentation of its first chronograph, the Oysterdate, in 1970. And since 1954, Tudor has been constantly refining its watches for professional divers. The Black Bay Chrono S&G model combines these traditions in a sport chic chronograph, with contrasting subcounters and a high-performance automatic Manufacture Calibre, with column wheel and vertical clutch. And now the Black Bay Chrono S&G offers a version with an attractive Champagne dial.

The details: A satin-brushed and polished case in 316L steel and yellow gold, 41 mm in diameter, with a fixed bezel in yellow gold and an insert in black anodized aluminum with a tachymetric scale. The Black Bay Chrono S&G sports a Manufacture Calibre MT5813 chronograph, is COSC-certified, and has a silicon balance spring, 70-hour power reserve, a column wheel, and a vertical clutch in the tradition of sporting timepieces.

BLACK BAY 31/36/39/41 Steel & Gold Tudor presents a new version of its Black Bay line in steel and yellow gold with a fixed bezel. The curved case, highlighted with polished yellow-gold sections, and the option of diamond bezel markers bring a new sophistication, versatility, and unisex chic to the iconic tool watch spirit. This model comes in four sizes for utmost wearability. The five-link bracelet’s Tudor “T-fit” clasp allows for rapid adjustment and instant comfort.

The details: A satin-brushed and polished case, 31, 36, 39, or 41 mm in diameter, in 316L steel and yellow gold. Also available with a diamond-set bezel. The Black Bay 31/36/39/41 S&G models are powered by Manufacture Calibres MT5201 (31 mm), MT5400 (36 mm), MT5602 (39 mm), and MT5601 (41 mm), and are COSCcertified with a silicon balance spring.

Today, after only a decade on the market, the Black Bay stands out as Tudor’s best-selling watch.
