On the occasion of this year’s Rugby World Championship and in honor of its partnership with the Rugby national team of New Zealand the Swiss watch brand TUDOR presents the Black Bay Chronograph in black. The quantities of these limited pieces depend on how many players have been part of the All Blacks ever since their foundation – until today it has been 1181. As soon as new players become part of the team, a new piece will be released.
TUDOR Black Bay Chrono Dark Ref. 79360DK
The black colour of the new watch is inspired by the colour of the All Black jersey to underline the connection to New Zealand’s national sport. Also the caseback is adorned with a special engraving showing the serial number of the model. The Black Bay Chrono Dark is equipped with a characteristic satin-finished steel bracelet with a matt finish and a black PVD-coating. The dial is also kept black and domed. The date indication is situated at the 9 o’clock position.
