TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 Chronograph

TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 – Motorsport Heritage Reimagined

The legacy of TUDOR has long been intertwined with the precision of motorsports. In 2025, this heritage accelerates forward spectacularly with the new TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25, a watch built in homage to motorsports, specifically Formula One. Limited to only 2,025 individually numbered pieces, this exceptional piece illustrates TUDOR’s commitment to innovation, speed, and mechanical perfection.

The TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 is spotlighted by the 42mm premium crafted, full carbon fibre case. The fixed carbon bezel features an integrated tachymetric scale. Note the carbon fibre end-links. All of the carbon elements are engineered to shed weight, maximize comfort, and boost performance. Titanium pushers with a stealthy PVD finish provide robust functionality with a refined aesthetic appeal.

The redesigned case is notably thinner than previous stainless-steel versions, enhancing wearability without compromising strength or structural integrity. Water-resistant up to 200 meters (660 feet), this chronograph is ready for both the pit lane and the open ocean, honoring TUDOR’s rich maritime history while echoing its asphalt DNA.

One glance at the domed “racing white” dial of the TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 reveals its racing pedigree. The dual black sub-counters—fashioned strikingly from carbon fibre, a salute to the livery of the Visa Cash App Racing Bulls F1 car. The “Snowflake” hands, a hallmark of TUDOR’s dive watches since 1969, ensure superb legibility under all conditions, complemented by Grade A Swiss Super-LumiNova luminescent material.

A subtle yet practical date window is neatly positioned at 6 o’clock, keeping functionality elegant and balanced. The titanium pushers and rose-signed crown pay homage to TUDOR’s storied design heritage, merging classic motifs with contemporary aesthetics.

Manufacture Chronograph Calibre MT5813 Movement

Powering the TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 is the Chronograph Calibre MT5813 movement, certified by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC). Engineered with an integrated column wheel mechanism and vertical clutch for ultra-smooth and precise chronograph operation, this calibre is a paragon of mechanical sophistication.

The calibre MT5813 boasts a 70-hour power reserve, ensuring reliability even after prolonged periods of inactivity. Its precision is bolstered by a non-magnetic silicon balance spring and a high-frequency oscillator beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour (4 Hz). This combination achieves remarkable accuracy, surpassing even COSC’s rigorous standards. Additionally, the movement showcases a tungsten monobloc rotor with exquisite satin-brushed detailing, reinforcing the meticulous craftsmanship synonymous with TUDOR.

Completing the TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 package is a specially designed hybrid strap, melding leather and rubber in an attractive “tire pattern” texture that echoes the motorsport theme. Carbon fibre end-links ensure seamless integration with the case, offering both comfort and secure wear. The PVD-treated titanium case back highlights the unique limited-edition number of each watch, further accentuating its exclusivity.

Beyond its remarkable technical specifications, the TUDOR Black Bay Carbon 25 encapsulates a spirit of adventure, heritage, and high-speed excellence.
