Pelagos FXD
The new Pelagos FXD pays tribute to decades of TUDOR watches on the wrists of US Navy divers. Complete with fixed strap bars, atitanium case, a high-performance Manufacture Calibre and a unidirectional elapsed-time rotating bezel, it comes as the ultimatemodern “Milsub”. As early as the mid ‘50s, TUDOR diving watches were being tested and evaluated by a number of outfits inside theUS Navy, and by 1958 they were officially adopted by the Navy and purchased for the purpose of issuing them to divers operating invarious units. This Pelagos FXD model is the spiritual successor of those watches. The nomenclature hints at the background of thewatch, with FXD referring to the incredibly robust FiXeD strap bars of the case. The model represents a modern, high-performanceand robust take on the famed “Milsub” (short for Military Submariner) of yesteryear. Visually, it’s most in line with a late ‘60s-era TUDOR Oyster Prince Submariner reference 7016; it incorporates elements from the US military specifications for diving watches,such as fixed spring bars, as well as details inspired by other generations of issued TUDORs, like pointed crown-guards typicallyfound on early TUDOR Submariners.
