Tudor introduced the second GMT model in the Black Bay series—the “Black Bay Pro”—in 2022. Its most distinctive feature is the use of a 39mm case and a stainless steel graduated bezel, which is 2mm smaller in diameter than the standard Black Bay GMT, resulting in a sharper and more prominent visual profile that aligns perfectly with its tool-watch positioning.

The new model retains the clean, refined character of the Black Bay line. The stainless steel case measures 39mm in diameter, and the fixed stainless steel bezel is finished with a combination of brushing and polishing. The 24-hour GMT scale is filled with black lacquer, providing excellent contrast. The watch offers 200-meter water resistance, and the screw-down crown features a new design with wider and deeper flutes, further improving the handling experience during adjustment.

The matte black dial follows a classic three-hand layout, with the most eye-catching element being the yellow “Snowflake” GMT hand. The date window is positioned at 3 o’clock. The hour markers are made from monobloc “luminous ceramic”. Every facet of the three-dimensional marker blocks emits light, significantly enhancing legibility in the dark.

It is powered by the Manufacture Calibre MT5652 automatic movement, beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour and offering a 70-hour power reserve. This movement allows for bidirectional adjustment of the time and date.
It comes on a stainless steel bracelet. The clasp is equipped with the “T-fit” rapid adjustment system, allowing you to easily extend the bracelet by up to 8mm on the fly. With an official price of 30,000 RMB, it is undoubtedly one of the best-value GMT watches of the year.
