Tudor: Two new Pelagos FXDs

To celebrate its partnership in the world of sailing with the Alinghi Red Bull Racing team, which will challenge for the America's Cup title in the fall of 2024, Tudor has just launched two new Pelagos FXD, which feature a special in-house movement and a carbon Composite case in titanium and stainless steel. high quality replica watches

AC75 Boats vs Pelagos FXD Alinghi Red Bull Racing
Tudor's new Pelagos FXD has many references to Alinghi Red Bull Racing's AC75 boat (America's Cup 75). This is logical since Tudor is the main partner of this team.

But the partnership goes beyond marketing, as long as the materials used on the boats and watches are (sometimes) very similar. More meaningfully, it has to be acknowledged that special effort has been put into the aesthetics of the AC75. As the 2023 version of the Pelagos FXD inherits the ship's design, the planets, or rather the oceans, align.

Pelagos FXD / Pelagos FXD Chrono: with or without a chronograph
What's so special about the new Pelagos FXD? They are made of carbon composite for the case and bezel disc, titanium for the bezel, winding crown and pushers, and 316L steel for the case back and movement container. Reference 25707KN is a classic automotive watch with a case diameter of 42mm. The 25807KN chronograph is equipped with a case with a diameter of 43 mm.luxury replica Watches

These models all feature an FXD case with a fixed stem, are water resistant to 200 meters, and were originally developed for combat swimmers in the French Navy, and all feature a 120-notch bi-directional rotating bezel with Super-LumiNova-grade X1 luminous material, Including properties Two hours are "up to 60 percent better than standard materials," according to Tudor.

These bezels feature a 60-minute counterclockwise scale for easy countdown tracking. The case back is engraved with the Alinghi Red Bull Racing team logo.

The matte dial of the Pelagos FXD is in the color of the AC75 case. While both dials are blue, like the Alinghi Red Bull Racing Team, and the seconds hand is painted red, the chronograph has red detailing around the counters, echoing the design of the AC75 case. On the sloping 45°C flange between 10 and 2 o'clock, the dial reads "Alinghi Red Bull Racing".

The square hour markers, an iconic element designed by Tudor in the 1960s, were designed to obtain a larger luminous surface for improved readability, and are made of luminous ceramic composite to ensure better readability.replica watches on sale

Marine fabric strap and in-house movement
The bracelet is made of marine fabric. It is woven by hand on 19th-century Jacquard shuttle looms by the Julien Faure company in the Saint-Etienne region. It consists of a 22mm "Team Blue" jacquard ribbon with red end stitching, a titanium "D" buckle and a hook and loop fastening system that adapts to different wrist sizes while offering great comfort in use.

The in-house caliber MT5602 that powers the Pelagos FXD displays the hours, minutes and seconds functions. Its one-piece tungsten oscillating weight is skeletonised, with bridges and mainplate alternately sandblasted and polished, and decorated with laser-cut decorations.

Its construction is well thought out, robust and precise, thanks to its variable inertia balance maintained by a solid cross bridge with double anchor points. Combined with a non-magnetic silicon hairspring, this system enables the COSC-certified in-house caliber MT5602 to run at the speed of a fully assembled watch within a tolerance interval of 6 seconds (–2 / +4), i.e. beyond the specifications defined by COSC .replica watches swiss

The in-house movement MT5813 that powers the Pelagos FXD Chrono model is equipped with hours, minutes, seconds, chronograph and date functions. It also features the matte finish of the Tudor-manufactured movement and another iconic element, the skeletonized tungsten rotor.

With a 70-hour "weekend protection" power reserve and a silicon hairspring, the in-house chronograph movement MT5813 is certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC) and exceeds the standards of this independent agency, which is –2/speed of the assembled watch +4 per day Second. The movement is designed with a column wheel mechanism and a vertical clutch. The movement is derived from the Breitling Caliber 01 (as in the brand's other chronographs).
