What is Tudor's next-generation model, the Tudor Royal?
What kind of watch is the Tudor Royal, a new model from Tudor released in 2020? First, let's get an overview of the Tudor Royal and its general features.
A new classic bearing the name of a 1950s model
Tudor is a brand established by Hans Wilsdorf (1881-1960), the founder of Rolex, to promote the quality of Rolex to the world. Tudor has gradually gained recognition for its high quality and reasonable prices, and has now established itself as a major brand.
The Tudor Royal, released in 2020, was originally a limited edition model available in certain parts of Asia. The name "Royal" was first used on a Tudor watch in the 1950s.
The name, which means "unparalleled quality," has been revived and the watch has been born as a new standard for Tudor. This model fully embodies the unique style of Tudor, which has always followed its own path, different from Rolex.
Featuring sporty yet classic details
The Tudor Royal is characterised by its sporty yet classic design, evoking the luxury sports style that was popular in the 1970s.
The bezel and bracelet are particularly eye-catching. The alternating notched bezel with its three-dimensional effect is reminiscent of an engine-turned bezel.
The five-row bracelet, integrated into the case, is an elaborate design that gives off both a dressy and sporty vibe, making it a model that will appeal to a wide range of watch lovers.
The Highly Acclaimed Features of the Tudor Royal
The appeal of the Tudor Royal comes from its uncompromising craftsmanship down to the smallest detail. Let's take a look at each of the unique features of the Tudor Royal.
The Beauty of the Notched Bezel
The first thing that catches your eye about the Tudor Royal design is the fixed notched bezel, a beautiful, three-dimensional design that is a common detail across the series.
The alternating polished finish and alternating cuts give it a dressy look.
The bezel, one of the most beautifully cut watches in Tudor's history, is a distinctive feature that embodies the essence of Tudor.
A wide variety of dials
One of the attractions of the Tudor Royal is the wide variety of dials available, with a wide range of dial colors to choose from.
Each of the blue, black, silver, and champagne colors reflects light beautifully, creating an elegant atmosphere.
There are also mother-of-pearl dials set with diamonds for a more feminine look, and Roman numeral indices add a chic touch.
Integrated bracelet for comfortable wear
One of the major features of the Tudor Royal is its five-link bracelet that is continuous with the case.
Three satin-finished links are combined to sandwich two polished parts, and the surfaces and corners are smoothed for a comfortable fit.
The edges are also treated to ensure comfort on the wrist. Two different material combinations are available, so it can cater to a wide range of tastes.
The integrated five-row bracelet was first adopted by Tudor in 1973. The bracelet, which combines design and comfort, is a major attraction that characterizes the Tudor Royal.
