Tudor Limited Edition Pilot Submersible FXD Chronograph “Yellow Model”

In October 2023, the Swiss luxury brand Tudor Watch officially launched a limited edition watch – the Submersible FXD Chronograph “Yellow Model”. This watch is inspired by professional cycling, especially Fabian Cancellara, who has won the Tour de France multiple times. As the owner of the team, Cancellara has an endless story with this watch, and the launch of this watch has also attracted the attention of many collectors and sports enthusiasts.

This watch is equipped with the original Tudor movement MT5813, which has been certified by the Swiss Official Observatory and has outstanding performance. The average daily travel time error of each watch is between 2 and +4 seconds, which is enough to meet the needs of professionals. The watch not only displays hours, minutes, and seconds, but also has timing and calendar functions. The power reserve is as long as 70 hours, truly achieving both performance and practicality.

Some people may say that no matter how good a watch is, what’s the use? Wearing a watch during cycling will inevitably affect the riding rhythm. In this regard, Tudor has obviously taken into account the needs of drivers. Not only does the appearance design of this watch conform to the wearing habits of drivers, but it also uses carbon composite materials and titanium metal to create the case, with lightweight as the primary goal, ensuring that the watch will not bring additional burden to the driver while being strong and durable.

The strap of the watch is also made of high-tech materials. The width of the black jacquard textured strap is 22 mm. It is not only comfortable and durable, but also very suitable for wearing while riding. For drivers, staying in top condition is key to winning races, and any factors that affect their performance must be eliminated, even the watch on their wrist.

In domestic and foreign cycling events, we often see riders wearing yellow jerseys. This is a recognition of their strength and is also the most important symbol of the event organizing committee for them. During the competition in 2016, Fabian Cancellara has been wearing this symbol. Not only did he win the final championship of the event, he also won the sub-station eight times. It can be said that he has both strength and luck.

Only 300 of this limited edition watch were produced. Each watch has a number engraved on the bottom cover. The number “7” represents Fabian Cancellara, because in his opinion, this number represents his luck.

The launch of a limited edition watch will inevitably attract some collectors. Those who love cycling may have already collected various souvenirs that Cancellara wore during competitions. Now Tudor has launched this limited edition “yellow model”, which carries not only the story of Cancellara, but also the history and spirit of cycling.

Conclusion

This limited edition watch is not only a tribute to Cancellara, but also an inheritance of the spirit of cycling. As a hobbyist, I think its design and performance are excellent, and I really hope to have the opportunity to own one! Do you think this watch is worth collecting?
