At Watches & Wonders Geneva 2023, Tudor unveiled a new version of its Black Bay GMT, distinguished by an all-new opaline white dial—a first for the collection. The brighter aesthetic offers a crisp, contemporary alternative to the traditional black-dial BB GMT.
The 41 mm stainless-steel case features a brushed and polished finish and remains water-resistant to 200 meters. Its signature 24-hour “Pepsi” bi-color bezel combines red for daytime hours and blue for nighttime, working with the red GMT hand to track a second time zone.
The opaline dial, achieved through an electroplating process, displays a subtle matte sheen that heightens the contrast of the red GMT hand. The hour markers and hands are edged in gray for greater legibility, while the snowflake-style hour, seconds, and GMT hands echo Tudor’s hallmark design. A discreet date window sits at 3 o’clock.
Powering the watch is the Tudor Manufacture Calibre MT5652, an automatic movement beating at 28,800 vph with a 70-hour power reserve. The movement allows for independent adjustment of the local hour hand, with the date automatically advancing when passing midnight.
The watch is presented on a fabric strap, priced at ≈3,600 €.
