In 2012, Tudor’s diving expertise culminated in the revolutionary Pelagos. This watch wasn’t just an incremental improvement, it was a game-changer. The Tudor Pelagos broke from tradition with a lightweight and ultra-corrosion-resistant grade 2 titanium case, offering superior comfort for long dives. Tudor even offered a special Pelagos LHD for those who wear their watch on the right wrist for better instrument access.
The Pelagos story doesn’t end there. Tudor continued to innovate within the collection, offering variations of new Tudor watches like the Pelagos FXD Chrono, a model co-developed with the French Navy.
