Tudor has re-entered Japan in 2018!
It was previously called "Tudor", but was renamed "Tudor" when it re-entered the market in 2018!
I still call it Tudor... (laughs)
A flagship store opened in Ginza in September of this year, and there are currently 11 official stores in Japan.
Although they unfortunately lost in this year's Rugby World Cup, they became a hot topic as they were an official sponsor of the New Zealand national team , the All Blacks .
Personally, I think the commemorative model Black Bay Chrono Dark "Ref. 79360DK" that pays homage to the All Blacks is cool.
This model is extremely rare and premium, but the "Black Bay GMT" we are introducing today is also a popular model that is traded at a premium price.

Black Bay GMT "Ref. 79830RB" is a new model for 2018 equipped with a GMT function on the popular "Black Bay" model.
This model is equipped with the chronometer-certified in-house movement "Cal. MT5652", which has a power reserve of 70 hours and is water resistant to 200m.
With a size of 41mm and a thickness of 14.5mm, this model has a strong presence reminiscent of a kamaboko case .

Since the model number is 79830RB, the bezel color is supposed to be "red and blue," but the blue is navy blue , which is different from the blue of Rolex GMTs.
Personally, I feel it is closer to the "black and red" Rolex GMT Master than to Pepsi.
I like that it's not the same color as the Rolex GMT Master/Pepsi!

The hands are the "squid needle" style that was used on the Submariner at the time.
It's clear that Tudor cares about the design of the squid hands.

The bracelet was used in the 1950s and 1960s.

It has a reproduction rivet bracelet, which also gives off an old-fashioned vibe.
*The links are screw-type so adjustment is easy.

The lug shape of this model is unique, with emphasis on the mirror-like chamfering.

However, I do like this sharp lug shape.
The model we are introducing this time is a non-polished, extremely beautiful item that shows no signs of use.
Although there are some minor scratches, the condition is such that we would recommend it to anyone looking for an unused item.

All accessories included are box, warranty card (stamped February 2019), and booklet.

The new 2018 model, Tudor Black Bay GMT "Ref. 79830RB" , is a wonderful model that allows you to fully enjoy the charm of old Tudor with its squid hands, thick case, and rivet bracelet , but Tudor has also added a blue and red bezel, which is to be expected!
This is a premium model that is hard to find at official stores, but we are offering it at a price below the list price!
