There was something for everyone from the beloved Tudor manufacture at this year’s Watches and Wonders. The Swiss luxury watchmaker, prized for its trademark sporty chic aesthetic, unveiled updates of two of its most coveted collections, as well as a complete reinvention of another.

That reinvention concerned the Tudor Monarch, a collection that first appeared in 1991 and proved a favourite for the next two decades. The 2026 Monarch now puts a whole new spin on the range: first, in the incredibly sharp-looking faceted stainless steel case, with matching bracelet; but also with the characterful dial, with the colour and texture of ancient papyrus and an idiosyncratic, quirky set of hour markers: Roman from 10 to 2 and Arabic from 4 to 8.

For a subtler but no less seductive reinterpretation of an established line, there’s the new Tudor Royal watches. The collection was first launched in the 1950s, reborn in 2020, and is now reimagined in three versions: in 30mm, 36mm and 40mm cases. They’re all equipped with an integrated metal bracelet and manufacture calibres – on the 40mm version, that calibre also powers a day complication. The new Royals are available in a dizzying range of dial colours, including black, blue, silver, green, light blue, ivory, salmon, burgundy, brown, champagne and mother-of-pearl.

No Tudor collection attracts more love than the iconic Black Bay, and the good news for aficionados is that four new iterations have rolled out of the manufacture’s ateliers this year. The bad boy among them is undoubtedly the new Black Bay Ceramic, with its moody palette. A matte black sandblasted ceramic case encircles a sunray satin finish black and charcoal dial with black hands, while there’s a matching bracelet, also in black ceramic for supreme lightness.

The Black Bay 54 is inspired by Tudor’s first dive watch, released in 1954, and a new model recreates many of the features of the original, from the 37mm case to the unidirectional bezel without graduated hash marks. It comes in the brand’s characteristic hue, known as Tudor Blue.

Taking its name from the year Tudor produced its first watch waterproof down to 200m, the Black Bay 58 pays homage to the past. With a 39mm case, it’s been slimmed down for added comfort, with a five-link bracelet added – and it now comes with Master Chronometer certification. It’s also available in a version with a GMT complication, accompanied by a burgundy and black bezel with a gilt 24-hour scale.
