Pre-Owned Tudor 39mm Black Bay Pro, Black Dial, Canvas Strap, Ref 79470
Launched in 2022, the Tudor Black Bay Pro has been one of the most welcomed additions to the brand since the first GMT that was released in the collection back in 2018. The Tudor Black Bay Pro features a fixed stainless steel GMT bezel, a golden yellow GMT hand, traditional Black Bay sport case / bracelet, and a COSC certified in-house movement. Considering everything you get in the Tudor Black Bay Pro, it’s no wonder why many are viewing it as the best value watch of 2022. Tudor has cased within the Tudor Black Bay Pro the in-house calibre MT5652. The MT5652 has been in production since 2018 with the release of their Pepsi GMT reference. The movement is a chronometer (COSC), has a power reserve of 70 hours, is extremely accurate, and has a GMT & date function. This lightly worn presents as unworn and includes all box and papers.

Since 1936 when Hans Wilsdorf acquired the Tudor name, Tudor watches have been associated with Rolex. Even with the launch of Tudor as a separate company in 1946, Rolex continued to play a major role that reflected Hans Wilsdorf’s vision of a brand that would be more modestly priced than a Rolex but still maintain the high standard of dependability. Tudor’s first models, such as the 1952 Oyster Prince had features unique to the Tudor brand but still were based on Rolex components, primarily the Oyster case. This successful relationship continued with the Tudor Advisor alarm watch and the Tudor dive watch that was introduced only a few months after the introduction of the Rolex Submariner.
With the second generation of the Tudor dive watch, Tudor began to further define itself as a unique brand. The French Navy requested a modification to enhance underwater legibility, which led to the now-iconic “snowflake” hands, with a larger square on the hour hand to easily distinguish it from the minute hand. Also, the logo was changed from the previous Tudor Rose to the Tudor Shield that we recognize in a modern Tudor watch. Around this same time, Tudor introduced its first chronograph named Oysterdate, which had a strong graphic and unique design, which still attracts fans with the modern reissued watch.
Near the beginning of the new century, Tudor ceased sales in the USA due to a lower demand. When Tudor returned in 2013 with design elements from their historical models that also included larger cases, in-house movements and modern materials, watch aficionados embraced Hans Wilsdorf’s founding desire, to manufacture an affordable watch with high standards. Tudor continues to be associated with Rolex, but with its own unique collections, Tudor has made a place of its own among watch enthusiasts.
