First launched in 2010, the Tudor Heritage collection, dedicated to revisiting the brand’s iconic models, welcomes the Heritage Black Bay watch. It is inspired by a 1954 model produced until the 1980s and from which it has borrowed a number of distinctive features such as the slender, elongated lugs, the cambered crystals and dials and the snowflake-type hands. The burgundy colour of the unidirectional rotating bezel echoes the original 1970s models. It is subtly reflected in the insert on the winding-crown, engraved with the Tudor rose motif. Overall, the lines have been redesigned and resized to correspond to contemporary tastes, and the steel case, which is water-resistant to 200 metres, measures 41 mm in diameter. The luminescent hands and generous hour-markers ensure perfect readability against the black background. Meanwhile, the wristbands are fitted with the new folding clasp developed by the brand. The Heritage Black Bay is supplied with two variations : one in black fabric and the other in a choice of steel or exclusive aged leather, lending an additional touch of originality to this sporting and elegant self-winding watch.
