Tudor has unveiled its Watches & Wonders 2026 collection, and this presentation also marks the brand’s centenary. The capsule consists of several new timepieces.
One of the highlights in Tudor's Watches & Wonders 2026 collection is the Royal series, which is now available in three new sizes of 30, 36, and 40 millimetres. The timepiece's silhouette boasts redesigned notched bezels and a day complication on the larger version. Other noteworthy styles include the Black Bay Ceramic model, which features a fully blacked-out aesthetic and a matching ceramic bracelet, a new Monarch model with a papyrus-toned dial and display case back showcasing the Manufacture Calibre MT5662-2U, a sapphire blue Black Bay 54 with a 37-millimeter case, a thinner Black Bay 58 on a five-link bracelet, and a Black Bay 58 GMT with a burgundy, black, and gilt bezel paired with a new mid-size GMT manufacture movement.
