Pelagos FXD Automatic 42mm Watch

The new TUDOR Pelagos FXD pays tribute to decades of TUDOR watches on the wrists of US Navy divers. Complete with fixed strap bars, a titanium case, a high-performance Manufacture Calibre and a unidirectional elapsed-time rotating bezel, it comes as the ultimate modern “Milsub”.

The Pelagos FXD is expertly crafted with a 42mm titanium case for increased robustness and reliability. Another feature of this model is the ergonomic 60-click rotating bezel. Unidirectional with a luminescent material-filled 60-minute-graduated ceramic insert, it corresponds to ISO standard 6425:2018 for divers’ watches.

The black dial has the characteristic square hour markers and angular hands, known as “Snowflake hands”, introduced by the brand in 1969 to increase the intensity of the luminescence of its watches in poor light conditions.

Historically, the Navy had divers fit their TUDOR watches with fabric straps, typically one-piece straps made out of nylon in green or black. The two straps supplied with the Pelagos FXD serve as a nod to this military custom of wearing watches on straps rather than bracelets, with a twist. A one-piece green fabric strap with red central thread and self-gripping fastening system comes as the flagship configuration, while an additional black embossed fabric-motif one-piece rubber strap brings a fresh subtle take to a classic look.
