Tudor’s legacy as maker of high-quality tool watches was cemented long before the brand re-entered the American market in late 2013. 

The manufacture’s decision to tap its heritage designs when iterating within its new collection has gone a long way toward creating fresh Tudor devotees — and, frankly, a darling amongst the enthusiast community. Whether it’s the Heritage Chrono inspired by the 1970s ‘Monte Carlo’ chronograph or more recent examples such as the Black Bay 54, Tudor FXD and Pelagos 39, Tudor’s modern lineup is a love letter to some of the very best sports watches of all time.

One of their most popular models — and not without good reason — is the Black Bay GMT. Offering ‘true’ GMT functionality via an independently adjustable hour hand, it’s the perfect traveler’s watch when you consider its intriguing value proposition and quality, as well as reliability, that naturally comes with the Tudor name.

This version, a Reference 79833MN, features a 41mm two-tone case equipped with a bidirectional 24-hour bezel; a sapphire crystal; and a yellow gold, ‘Rose’-signed screw-down crown. The luminous, matte black dial with gilt accents houses a set of applied indices accompanied by a matching ‘snowflake’ handset, a gold ‘snowflake’ GMT hand, and a date indicator at 3 o’clock. 

Mounted on an Oyster-style, two-tone bracelet with a signed, locking flip clasp, this piece is powered by the COSC-certified MT5625 automatic movement. Further, this BB GMT comes with all of its factory goodies!

Still not a fan of two-tone? This Black Bay GMT will change your mind.
