Black Bay Chrono Dark "All Blacks" Limited Edition

The Story

The Tudor Black Bay Chrono Dark (Ref. 79360DK) occupies a uniquely celebrated position in modern watchmaking history. Created to honor Tudor’s partnership with New Zealand’s legendary All Blacks national rugby team, this reference discards conventional fixed-number limited runs. Instead, Tudor established a dynamic release model: exactly one watch is produced for every player ever selected to represent the All Blacks since their founding in 1884, with a single piece added only when a new cap earns their jersey. This makes the reference an evolving, strictly restricted rarity designed exclusively for the serious collector who commands stealth military aesthetics and deep athletic pedigree.

The Craft: Stealth PVD Metallurgy & Manufacture Calibre MT5813

The 41mm stainless steel case and integrated bracelet are completely treated with a durable, satin-brushed black PVD (Physical Vapor Deposition) coating, eliminating reflective glare to create an imposing, tactical wrist presence. The fixed bezel features a matching black PVD aluminum insert with a high-contrast silver tachymeter scale.

The matte black dial showcases Tudor's signature "Snowflake" hands, accompanied by recessed silver chronograph registers at 3 and 9 o'clock for classic bicompax symmetry. Paying homage to vintage Tudor dive heritage, the dial features a subtle red depth rating inscription at 6 o'clock alongside a clean date aperture.

Beneath the solid caseback, individually engraved with its unique production number, beats the Manufacture Tudor Calibre MT5813. Derived from Breitling’s B01 movement architecture and enhanced with Tudor's proprietary regulating organ, this COSC-certified automatic engine features a vertical clutch and column-wheel mechanism. Equipped with a silicon balance spring, it stores a robust 70-hour "weekend-proof" power reserve, supported by screw-down pushers and crown to deliver a professional rating of 200 meters (660 feet) of water resistance.
