Tudor has unveiled the Pelagos FXD Chrono ‘Cycling Edition’, a chronograph designed specially with riders of the Tudor Pro Cycling Team and cycling enthusiasts in mind. Some of you might have seen the accompanying cycling experience not too long ago at the Tudor Boutique by Cortina Watch in Raffles City.
The watch was borne from conversations between the brand and its Pro Cycling team, as they needed a watch that could not only stand up to the rigors of professional cycling, but that could also be a useful tool on the road. It needed to be simple and legible enough that it’s easy to use in the heat of a race, but also display cycling speeds, which is vital information to any cyclist.
Tudor has gone a step further and created one that’s great for urban use as well: sleek, stylish and comfortable on the wrist.
The Pelagos FXD boasts a lightweight carbon composite case, the same material used in high-performance racing bikes. It feels almost weightless on the wrist, despite the robust 43mm case and the titanium reinforcements to it (which allows it to take the hits and bumps of an intense race). The 22mm lug width helps for a snug, comfortable fit, especially for more masculine wrists.
As per other Pelagos Chronographs, this one has counters at 3 and 9 o’clock. The Pelagos FXD ‘Cycling Edition’ has the added complication of a unique, spiral tachymeter designed specifically for cycling speeds. Just a glance will give you your average pace.
These complications are powered by the COSC-certified Manufacture Calibre MT5813, a powerful self-winding mechanical movement that delivers 70 hours of power reserve, making the ‘Cycling Edition’ perfect for most races.
So, cycling enthusiasts, we recommend an upgrade to the Pelagos FXD Chrono ‘Cycling Edition’. It’s the perfect blend of cutting-edge technology, durability, and cycling-specific features to give you that edge in your next race.
