TUDOR
In Europe, cycling is a sport of gentlemen. A lightweight, functional chronograph specially designed for its riders.
The "Pelagos FXD Chrono "Cycling"", specially designed by Swiss watch brand TUDOR for professional cycling team riders, has been released. This model, themed around cycling, features a lightweight, function-focused design with a carbon composite case housing a high-performance Manufacture Caliber. The watch is now available.
Matte black with red accents. Optimal legibility even in harsh conditions.
The "Pelagos FXD Chrono "Cycling"" was designed with professional cycling in mind. This new model features a matte-finished black carbon composite case, maintaining the robustness required for a watch.
While the chronograph's tachymeter scale is typically adjusted for automotive speeds, this model's tachymeter is specially designed for cycling.
The matte black dial, with its iconic square indices and Snowflake hands, is accented in red for high legibility, evoking the team colors of TUDOR Pro Cycling. The flange, angled at 45 degrees around the dial's edge, is marked with a tachymeter scale, its inner numerals focused on the rider's speed.
Inside, the Manufacture Caliber MT5813 powers the watch, displaying hours, minutes, seconds, chronograph functions, and the date. It offers 100m water resistance, approximately 70 hours of power reserve, and is COSC-certified, achieving a remarkable daily accuracy of -2 to +4 seconds, exceeding the institute's standards.
The strap is a 22mm wide Jacquard-woven technical fabric, newly developed by Julienne Faure and TUDOR for the "Pelagos FXD". Produced by Julienne Faure, a family business for over 150 years, using 19th-century looms, this fabric strap and traditional buckle are the perfect combination for bike rides.
The "Pelagos FXD Chrono "Cycling"" is available now for ¥704,300 (tax included).
