2021 Tudor Northflag 40mm Automatic on Bracelet 91210N

Here we have a rarely seen 2021 Tudor Northflag on a Bracelet 91210N featuring a 40mm stainless steel case. The angular case gently curves, with flat-ended lugs and a lug-to-lug length of 50mm, and a thickness of 13mm, which gives the watch an impressive wrist presence. On the right side is a signed screw-down crown. The smooth brushed bezel has a black outer ring. A flat sapphire crystal sits above a black dial, with an outer minute chapter ring featuring yellow accents surrounding applied luminous Arabic numerals and baton indexes marking the hours. At 3 o’clock, a date window. At 9 o’clock, a power reserve indicator. Broad arrow hands are coated in the same luminance complemented by a yellow sweeping second hand. At noon, we have the Tudor motif and at 6 o’clock, ‘Chronometer Officially Certified’. On the reverse, a screw-down coin-edged exhibition case back. Inside an Automatic Tudor Cal. MT5621, 28 jewels, 28,800 beats per hour, chronometer COSC certified. The movement has a bi-directional rotor and a non-magnetic silicon balance spring, a first for Tudor. It comes paired with its original 12mm Tudor integrated stainless steel bracelet, secured by a signed double-fold flip-lock clasp. Comes with its Tudor presentation box and papers.

This watch is sold with its original Tudor presentation box and paperwork. It comes paired with its original 12mm Tudor integrated stainless steel bracelet, secured by a signed double-fold flip-lock clasp, and all links are included. The watch is from Circa. 2021 and is sold in worn condition, but overall in very fair condition, as you can see from the photographs, a case and bracelet refurb can be provided at an additional cost. The watch comes with our 12-Months Warranty.

The Tudor Northflag is easily one of the hidden gems amongst modern Tudor. This was the first reference to feature their in-house automatic Tudor calibre MT5621, and therefore, this is a historically important model in their lineup. Cased in 40mm and having a super comfortable integrated bracelet, it really does feel like Tudor was ahead of the curve in 2015 with this model. This was discontinued in 2021, making this example an end-of-series piece, and it would be great to see them bring it back in the near future. Do not hesitate to snap this up today, I suspect prices will continue to perform well on these as the years pass!

The Tudor trademark was first registered in 1926 by the Swiss watchmaking company “Veuve de Philippe Hüther” on behalf of Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex watches. Wilsdorf took it over himself in 1936. Just after the Second World War, Hans Wilsdorf, Founder of Rolex, knew that the time had come to expand and give the Tudor brand a proper identity of its own. The Tudor Rose started to appear on their dials from this time. Thus, on 6 March 1946, he created the “Montres TUDOR S.A.” company, specialising in models for both men and women. Rolex guaranteed the technical, aesthetic and functional characteristics, along with the distribution and after-sales service. In 1948, we saw the first Tudor-specific advertising. A few years later, they introduced the TUDOR Oyster Prince in 1952. Hans Wilsdorf allowed Tudor to use their waterproof Oyster case and the original self-winding Perpetual ’rotor’ movement. This was an exclusive arrangement that benefited both brands. Development soon commenced with the introduction of the TUDOR Oyster Prince Submariner, reference 7922, in 1954. This watch was quickly adopted by the French Navy in 1956. Building on its reputation of robustness in 1961, the Rose was replaced by the shield. Later in 1969, we saw the design changes in Ref. 7016, where for the first time square indexes and angular hands nicknamed “Snowflake” allowed for a greater amount of lume to be applied, and the divers of the French Navy appreciated this. Today, these innovations can be seen in the Black Bay and Pelagos collections. In 1971, Tudor introduced the Oysterdate chronographs nicknamed “Monte-Carlo” due to their resembling a roulette wheel. Celebrating their 50th anniversary in 1996. In that same year, Tudor decided to shed Rolex-signed components such as the cases, crowns and bracelets in favour of Tudor-branded ones. Today, Tudor uses their in-house movements developed initially in 2015 in collaboration with Breitling.
