2023 Tudor Pelagos LHD Titanium 42mm 25610TNL

Here we have a 2023 Tudor Pelagos LHD Titanium 25610TNL with a 42mm brushed Titanium case, released with their in-house movement in 2015. The Pelagos name is Ancient Greek for ‘open or deep sea’, and this left-hand version is inspired by a commissioned Tudor Submariner dive watch for the French Navy ref. 9401 from 1970. The case curves over your wrist with thick bevel-edged lugs. A lug-to-lug length of 49.5mm and a case thickness of 14mm give the watch an impressive wrist presence; its larger size is compensated by the use of lightweight Titanium and excellent ergonomics. Ideally worn on the left wrist to take advantage of the left-hand crown position, on the right side is a Helium Escape Valve (HEV), and on the left side is a crown guard-protected screw-down crown. The Titanium unidirectional bezel has a ceramic matte black insert with a faux patina of a warm beige-coloured 60-minute scale, a matte black dial with an outer minute chapter ring and recessed square and rectangular pillows of a faux patina beige-coloured indexes mark the hours, matching the bezel and giving it a vintage aesthetic. At 3 o’clock, a framed roulette date window, the characteristic Snowflake hands are coated in the same luminescence, and at 12 o’clock, we have the Tudor motif, and at 6 o’clock, a red “Pelagos” with “Chronometer Officially Certified” and “Rotor-Self Winding” printed underneath. On the reverse, a coin-edged screw-down case back with the engraved (No. 8823) in the centre, this number does not signify a limited production but is a nod to the French Navy Tudor Submariners, which were individually numbered.

Swiss watchmaking company “Veuve de Philippe Hüther” was founded on behalf of Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex watches, first registered in 1926 with the Tudor trademark. Wilsdorf took it over himself in 1936. Soon after the Second World War, Hans Wilsdorf, who founded Rolex, knew that it was time for Tudor to have a proper identity of its own. The Tudor Rose started to appear on their dials from this moment. On 6 March 1946, he created the “Montres TUDOR S.A.” company, creating watches for both men and women. Rolex guaranteed the overall design aesthetic, as well as distribution and after-sales service. In 1948, we saw the first Tudor-specific advertisement. 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 benefitted 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 their 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 “snowflakes” allowed for a greater amount of lume to be applied; this was appreciated by the divers of the French Navy. 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, and celebrated their 50th anniversary in 1996. 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 the in-house movements that were developed initially in 2015 in collaboration with Breitling.
