TUDOR BASEL 2013

I don't know what to expect from Tudor this year as the previous years releases have got people talking about the Tudor brand again.

With the momentum going for them, 2 models were announced.

The Tudor Heritage Chrono Blue.

Paying homage to the vintage Ref 7169.

Tudor did a good job... it's almost a 1 to 1 copy.

Movement is an ETA 2892 with a chrono module.

The spec sheet does say that the chrono module also comes with a flyback function. Need to get this clarified.

UPDATE: Seems like the flyback function in Tudor term means reset... lol

The modern release is the Tudor Fastrider Black Shield.

Features a monobloc ceramic case and 2 dial combos... the khaki or red accented dial and hands.

Powered by the ETA 7753.

The Heritage line seems to be expanding nicely with some interesting releases year after year.

As for the modern release, after the Tudor Pelagos last year, it's tough trying to come up with something to top that... I think the Black Shield can hold it's own.

Excellent way for Tudor to go back into the US market.
