Tudor goes South Beach w/the NEW Black Bay Chrono "Flamingo Blue" dial

Tudor’s Hot NEW Chronograph

Tudor’s tagline, “Born to Dare,” perfectly reflects its bold approach to design, color, and materials. The brand consistently pushes boundaries, experimenting with new styles while simultaneously creating must-have icons.

The latest example? The NEW Black Bay Chronograph with a striking “Flamingo Blue” dial.

Last year, Tudor introduced its first Black Bay with a colored dial in pink—a move that proved to be a massive success. The watch soared in demand, reaching nearly four times its retail price on the secondary market. Now, with the launch of this vibrant new edition, Tudor continues to redefine modern watchmaking while staying true to its daring spirit.

Breaking convention norms…

Breaking conventions has been at the core of TUDOR’s DNA since its inception, and the new Black Bay Chrono is a testament to that fearless spirit. Its striking “Flamingo Blue” dial takes inspiration from the vivid turquoise waters that flamingos frequent, capturing the essence of South Beach’s iconic energy.

Beyond its bold aesthetics, this timepiece is built for performance, featuring a column wheel and vertical clutch chronograph calibre, along with a sleek five-link bracelet equipped with the T-Fit clasp for maximum comfort and precision.

Part of a special collection designed for those who dare to stand out, the Black Bay Chrono redefines bold elegance, making it the perfect choice for trailblazers who refuse to blend in.

The Watch

Just like all Black Bay Chronographs, this new variation retains the same signature functionality and design elements that define the collection. It features a 41mm stainless steel oyster style case with polished and brushed finishes, bi-register chronograph with contrasting subdials, a date display at six o’clock, screw-down chronograph pushers, and a stainless-steel bezel with a matte black anodized aluminum disc, complete with a tachymeter scale and silver markings. It’s powered by the same in house Tudor Manufacture Calibre MT5813 with chronograph function
Self-winding mechanical chronograph movement with bidirectional rotor system for the same retail as the other Black Bay’s with Jubilee bracelet of $5,875.

What truly sets this model apart, much like its pink-dial counterpart, is its jubilee-style bracelet—a departure from the standard oyster-style riveted bracelet found on the regular-production black and white “Panda” dials. This refined detail enhances its distinctiveness, making it a standout piece within the Black Bay Chrono lineup.

The buzz has already started…

Action star Mark Wahlberg is clearly a fan of this watch, even featuring it in a video on his official Instagram Reels. In the clip, while sporting the Black Bay Chrono Flamingo Blue, he exclaims, “The work never stops. Black Bay Chrono Flamingo Blue—oof, might be my new favorite. Wow!” He also gave Tudor a shoutout in the caption, expressing his appreciation for the timepiece.

The video has already reached nearly 70,000 viewers in just two days, further cementing the watch’s growing buzz and appeal among collectors and enthusiasts alike. I’m sure this will be as hot if not hotter than the pink dial variation and command massive premiums in the secondary market.

At the end of the day…

With its striking Flamingo Blue dial, iconic Black Bay Chrono DNA, and upgraded jubilee-style bracelet, Tudor has once again delivered a must-have piece. This watch isn’t just about aesthetics—it’s a blend of performance, heritage, and exclusivity, making it a surefire hit among collectors.

If history repeats itself, this watch is poised to become one of Tudor’s most sought-after releases, setting new benchmarks in both the primary and secondary markets. Whether you’re a die-hard Tudor fan or a luxury watch investor, the Black Bay Chrono Flamingo Blue is one release you won’t want to miss out on!
