Collector's Notes
This used Tudor Black Bay Chrono "Flamingo Blue" 79360N-0024 is a sports chronograph that refuses to play it safe. The 41mm stainless steel case — brushed with polished chamfers and topped by a black anodized aluminum tachymeter bezel — frames a matte turquoise dial named for the tropical waters of the Caribbean, with crisp black sub-counters at 3 and 9 o'clock that nod to the panda chronographs of the 1970s. Inside, the COSC-certified Manufacture Calibre MT5813 features column-wheel construction, a vertical clutch, a silicon balance spring, and a 70-hour power reserve, all driving an integrated chronograph that performs as seriously as it looks. Rhodium-plated Snowflake hands, screw-down pushers, 200m of water resistance, and the five-link bracelet with T-fit rapid-adjustment clasp round out a watch built for buyers who want Swiss manufacture chops without the Swiss manufacture posturing.
