What Do You Need to Know About the Tudor Black Bay Chrono M79360N 2021?

As one of the leading companies in the production of custom rubber watch bands, Rubber B is passionate about making the world of horology a more exciting and transparent place for everyone. One of the many ways we go about acting on this philosophy is by regularly crafting blog posts that allow us to further explore a variety of topics in the field, including the history of watchmaking, important recent developments, and how watches work from a more technical standpoint.

With the recent conclusion of Watches and Wonders 2021, we felt it was appropriate to focus on some of the timepieces that we thought were more interesting or notable from this year’s event. One of those timepieces was the new Tudor Black Bay Chrono M79360N, and we’ll take a closer look at both its technical specifications and design style in a few moments.

Before we do that, it is worth taking a few moments to look at the watch in terms of how it fits into the larger picture at Tudor. The Black Bay is arguably Tudor’s most immediately recognizable watch, and the Chrono M79360N is the dress watch version of this particular product line. Because of that, the Black Bay was bound to be one of the most closely watched timepieces from this year’s expo, as Tudor was under pressure to keep people interested and excited about their new iterations of this watch. Did they manage to live up to the expectations?  Let’s take a few moments to examine the timepiece more closely in a number of different ways.

What Are The Technical Specifications of the Tudor Black Bay Chrono M79360N 2021?

One of the important challenges for Tudor was to modify the Black Bay Chrono M79360N in a way that was meaningful without making it cumbersome or unwieldy. Tudor watches are not known for their opulence, but their unflappable reliability instead, and the technical specifications of this latest iteration of the Tudor Black Bay Chrono 2021 are reflective of this fact.

The Tudor Black Bay Chrono M79360N measures at 41 mm and is encased in stainless steel, ensuring a watch that has a solid feel to it without being overly hefty. The fixed bezel is made from 316L steel and has a matte black anodized aluminum disc, which also comes with a tachymetric scale and silver markings to help in measuring different units per hour.

The watch is powered by an MT5813 caliber, which is self-winding, mechanical, and has a bidirectional rotor system. It should be noted that Tudor manufactures their calibers in-house and has quietly built a reputation for doing an excellent job of doing so. Finally, this watch has a power reserve of 70 hours, which is on the upper end of the spectrum and is definitely a positive.

How Does the Tudor Black Bay Chrono M79360N 2021 Fare In Terms of its Style?  

The dial is both domed and opaline and has black counters, with the date clearly visible at 6 o’clock. What is interesting is that this year, Tudor has been much more experimental in terms of the color styles and patterns they are using for their watches. You are now able to get gold as part of the dial and bracelet with this watch, something you were unable to do previously.

It certainly seems that Tudor is certainly beginning to fully stake out its territory in the luxury timepiece space in a way that it has not previously done before.
