The Tudor Pelagos is a renowned dive watch with a relatively brief yet impactful history. Launched in 2012, it signified Tudor’s reentry into the professional dive watch arena. With its lightweight and corrosion-resistant titanium case, the Pelagos stood out in a market dominated by stainless steel. Its remarkable water resistance, capable of surviving depths of up to 500 meters, appealed to professional divers and underwater explorers.

Incorporating a helium escape valve, the watch catered to saturation divers, allowing them to release helium buildup during deep-sea missions. Over time, Tudor enhanced the Pelagos with a chronometer-certified self-winding movement for accuracy and reliability. Its legible dial, marked by the signature snowflake hands and luminous markers, ensured visibility in low-light conditions. Offering versatility, the Pelagos often included both a titanium bracelet and rubber strap. Various versions and limited editions with distinct features and aesthetics have maintained its appeal among divers and watch enthusiasts. The Tudor Pelagos embodies Tudor’s commitment to crafting durable, functional, and visually appealing dive watches.
