History of the Pelagos Collection
As a jeweler deeply immersed in the world of luxury timepieces, we admire the Pelagos collection for how effortlessly it bridges heritage and innovation. First introduced in 2012, the watch collection was TUDOR’s answer to the modern professional diver’s needs that are both technically robust and aesthetically clean. Drawing from the brand’s long-standing legacy in underwater exploration, the Pelagos revived the spirit of TUDOR's early tool watches while incorporating the latest in watchmaking technology. For those familiar with TUDOR’s history, this collection feels like a nod to the past, yet reimagined for today's explorers.
Watches Built for Action
What makes the Pelagos so beloved is its clarity of purpose. These watches are rugged, precise, and built for action. This collection has fully titanium watch cases, helium escape valves, and water resistance up to 500 meters, all wrapped in timepiece designs that are understated yet unmistakable. Whether it’s the original blue dial that speaks to vintage inspirations or the newer FXD models developed in collaboration with military divers, each version offers a unique take on TUDOR’s commitment to functional design. It’s this no-nonsense reliability that keeps collectors and professionals coming back.
Signature Elements
From a technical perspective, the Pelagos collection is where TUDOR flexes some serious muscle. Many models feature the in-house caliber MT5612, a COSC-certified movement known for its reliability and impressive 70-hour power reserve. They also boast ceramic bezels, luminescent markers with superb legibility, and the brand’s patented auto-adjustable clasp that are a favorite among divers. These elements aren’t just for show; they’re built to perform under pressure for timepieces more than capable of withstanding extreme environments.
Why Shop Pelagos
People buy Pelagos watches for all kinds of reasons. Some are drawn to the collection’s minimalist approach to the tool-watch design, while others admire the engineering behind these timepieces. These watches don’t try to be flashy, but instead deliver exactly what they promise. At Hing Wa Lee Jewelers, we know the Pelagos collection resonates with those who value craftsmanship, clarity, and confidence in their timepiece. It's a collection that stands on its own, not just as a luxury item, but as a trusted companion built to endure.
