The Tudor Black Bay Chrono "Flamingo Blue"

A Daring Fusion of South Beach Style and Racing Precision

The Tudor Black Bay Chrono "Flamingo Blue" (Ref. 79360N-0024) is a vibrant, special-edition addition to the Black Bay family that captures the high-energy spirit of Miami’s South Beach.1 Following the massive success of the "Inter Miami" Pink Chrono, this iteration trades the "candy-floss" pink for a striking turquoise dial—officially named Flamingo Blue—inspired by the tropical waters of the Atlantic.2 It is a watch designed for the individual who dares to be different, merging the precision of a high-performance racing chronograph with a bold, sun-drenched aesthetic.3

A New Icon of "Daring" Design

The standout feature is undoubtedly the turquoise sunray dial, which provides a vivid backdrop for the contrasting black circular sub-counters.4 This "Panda" layout is more than just a nod to vintage racing; it ensures maximum legibility for the chronograph functions.5 The dial is punctuated by Tudor’s signature "Snowflake" hands and applied hour markers, all generously filled with Swiss Super-LumiNova for a brilliant glow in low-light conditions.6

The 41mm stainless steel case features the classic Black Bay silhouette with polished and satin finishes.7 To maintain its sporty edge, it is fitted with a fixed stainless steel bezel featuring a matte black anodized aluminum insert and a tachymetric scale—a direct link to Tudor's historic ties to the world of motorsports.8

Precision Performance: Manufacture Calibre MT5813

Beneath the tropical dial lies a powerhouse of Swiss engineering.9 The Manufacture Calibre MT5813 is a COSC-certified automatic movement developed in collaboration with Breitling.10 It features a column-wheel mechanism and a vertical clutch, ensuring that the chronograph seconds hand starts and stops with absolute smoothness, without the "stutter" common in lesser movements.11

With a 70-hour power reserve, this watch is truly "weekend-proof."12 You can take it off on Friday evening and find it ticking perfectly on Monday morning. It also includes a silicon balance spring, providing enhanced resistance to magnetic fields and daily shocks.13
