Is the price increase of 12,700 yuan worth it? Tudor Biwan Ceramic 2026 All-Black Ceramic Detailed Explanation: Material Upgrade, Details Return to Original Intentions

In recent days, the new Biwan ceramic series watches launched by Tudor have attracted the attention of many watch fans. This watch not only pays tribute to the sky-high price in design, but also makes considerable upgrades in movement and wearing comfort. Want to know what are the highlights of this watch? Then read on!

Tudor Black Bay Ceramic Series Watch

As a famous Swiss watch brand, Tudor watches launch new watches every year to give back to consumers. Although Tudor watches are not as high-end and luxurious as Rolex, the recognition and influence of its watches in the market cannot be underestimated.

The new Biwan ceramic series watch launched by Tudor has attracted the attention of many watch fans. The price of this new watch is 57,400 yuan, which is a significant increase compared to the previous model of 44,700 yuan. However, because the strap material of the previous model is relatively ordinary, and the new model has a ceramic strap, we think this price increase is more reasonable.

The Tudor Black Bay ceramic series was first launched in 2021. The market feedback was very good at that time, and then the brand decided to iteratively upgrade it. The new model launched in 2026 is 7941A1ACNU. This model itself also means that it is a new watch in 2026.

Design tribute

From the appearance point of view, the most noteworthy thing about this new watch is that its design is inspired by an orphan watch at the Only Watch auction in 2019. The price of that watch at that time was about 5 million yuan, which can be said to be a sky-high price. The design of the new Tudor Black Bay ceramic watch cleverly pays tribute to this orphan watch. We believe this is also an attempt to attract the attention of watch lovers.

Although we can’t know the specific details of Tudor’s tribute, watch fans quickly discovered some changes between the old and new models. For example, the new watch has a major upgrade in the movement.

The old Biwan ceramic model was equipped with the MT5612 movement, while the new model was replaced with the MT56021U movement. This movement has a vibration frequency of 28,800 times per hour and a power reserve of 70 hours. It has also passed the dual certification of the METAS Master Observatory. It can be said to be an excellent movement.

changes in details

In terms of dial details, there are also obvious changes between the new model and the old model. The time scales of the old model are dots, while the new model has become a long strip, which is more concise and clear. In addition, the new watch also adjusts the position of the date display window from 3 o’clock to 6 o’clock, which makes it more convenient to watch the time.

In terms of strap style, the new model has also made great adjustments. The old model has a three-section strap, while the new one has a five-section strap. The overall look is more refined. Although there are only two changes in the number of sections, the comfort of the strap is actually very obvious.

The most important point is that the thickness of the new watch has also decreased. The original 14.4 mm thick model has become history. The current new model is 13.55 mm thick. This thickness change of one millimeter is very important for the wearing experience. I believe many watch friends have this feeling. If the watch is thicker, it will be very uncomfortable to wear on the wrist. If the watch is thin, you can hardly feel anything on the wrist, which is very important for the wearing experience.

Summarize

Overall, the new Tudor Black Bay ceramic series watches have made good adjustments in all aspects, especially in terms of movement, design and wearing comfort.

Although the price increase has disappointed some consumers, considering the ceramic material used in this watch and the substantial upgrade of the movement, we think the price is still acceptable.
