Hello everyone, what we are going to talk about today is not the Rolex Sea-Dweller, but the Tudor Submariner Ultimate that just debuted! This diving watch is not simple. Its waterproof depth has jumped directly from 500 meters to 1000 meters. This improvement is not only a numerical change, but also an upgrade in safety. Have you ever thought that the selection criteria for a diving watch are not only appearance and brand, but safety is the king? Come with me to learn more about the charm of this watch!

Tudor Diver Ultimate

Speaking of diving watches, the first thing that everyone may think of is the Rolex Sea-Dweller. Indeed, the status of Rolex’s Sea-Dweller in the field of diving watches is unquestionable, but the watch we are going to talk about today may make you re-examine the purchase criteria of diving watches. It is Tudor’s new leader diving ultimate diving watch.

The Tudor Leading Diver Ultimate is a watch just launched in 2023. Its appearance marks that the Leading Diver series has jumped from the initial waterproof depth of 500 meters to a diving watch with a waterproof depth of 1,000 meters. It can be said to be the top version of the Leading Diving series.

Many people may say, isn’t a diving watch just what you wear when you go into the water? There is no need for a waterproof depth of 1,000 meters. This waterproof depth is indeed unnecessary, but when we buy a watch, do we only look at its surface functions? Obviously not. A very important indicator of a diving watch is the safety factor. If this watch only has a waterproof depth of 500 meters, it may not be safe even to 300 meters when actually used. Although we don’t need the 1000-meter waterproof depth, it can at least give us a better safety guarantee.

In addition to its super waterproof performance, the Diver Extreme model also shows strong practicality in other aspects. For example, its bezel is made of ceramic material, which is not only lightweight but also wear-resistant. We know that in the marine environment, salt water, sunlight, wind and various impacts may cause damage to watches, and ceramic materials perform very well in this regard.

Moreover, the Ultimate model also has a luminous scale, which is even more practical than the Sea-Dweller. Although the Sea-Dweller also has luminous, many watch friends reported that the use experience is not good, the luminous effect is weak, and will disappear soon as time goes by. The luminous scale of this Tudor watch is very obvious, and you can clearly see the time even in a dark environment, which is a great plus.

The most important point is that the Rolex Sea-Dweller is very cost-effective. It is priced at 47,200 yuan, which is 6,000 yuan more expensive than the Rolex Sea-Dweller, which is also waterproof to 1,000 meters. However, if you are not particularly concerned about brand influence, the 6,000 yuan can be used in exchange for more practical functions. For most watch friends, this choice is very cost-effective.

Movement performance

Of course, watch friends are most concerned about the performance of the internal movement of the watch. This watch is equipped with the MT5612U movement produced by Tudor. This movement has not only passed the Swiss official observatory certification, but also is a higher-level Master Observatory certification. This certification is not available to any brand. It has much stricter requirements for all aspects of the movement’s performance indicators. The error range of one year needs to be controlled within 5 seconds. This standard can be said to be very harsh.

Moreover, this movement also has an antimagnetic capability of 15,000 Gauss. This data is almost never seen in mechanical watches. Even some high-end brand antimagnetic watches have an antimagnetic capability of only about 4,000 Gauss. It can be said that Tudor has made great efforts on this movement.

This watch also has a power reserve of 65 hours, which can basically meet the needs of most people. Even if it is not worn on weekends, there is no need to worry about losing time.

In general, the Tudor Submariner Ultimate is a diving watch with excellent performance in all aspects and a high cost performance. Its appearance marks that Tudor is becoming more and more competitive in the high-end diving watch market. In this field, in addition to Rolex, there is another strong competitor.

Conclusion

The Tudor Navigation Ultimate is undoubtedly a diving watch worthy of attention. With its high cost performance and excellent performance, it has the potential to occupy a place in the high-end market. For watch lovers who pursue practicality rather than pure brand effect, this watch is simply good news! What do you think of Tudor’s performance this time?
