How to Choose Your Tudor Royal Watch
The Tudor Royal collection is available in several diameters, making this the first criterion to consider: 28 mm, 34 mm, 38 mm and 41 mm, with additional references in 30, 36 and 40 mm depending on the generation. The 28 mm and 34 mm sizes are traditionally suited to women's wear or slimmer wrists, while the 41 mm version is ideal for wrists measuring 17 cm or more for those seeking a more pronounced presence on the wrist. The intermediate sizes (36–38 mm) offer a unisex watch option, suitable both for a man with a slimmer wrist and for a woman looking for a larger case.
The case and bezel material influences both the budget and the overall style. The 316L steel watch is suited to everyday wear with limited maintenance, while two-tone versions, featuring a fluted bezel made of 18-carat yellow gold, are better suited to more formal occasions and come at a significantly higher price. Some 28 mm models are available with diamond-set hour markers, a feature worth considering for evening wear or special occasions.
The choice of dial depends on how and where the watch will be worn: classic colours such as black, silver and blue are well suited to versatile professional use, while salmon, chocolate or mother-of-pearl dials are aimed at those looking for a more distinctive aesthetic. Applied Roman numerals evoke the collection's vintage inspiration, while baton hour markers provide a more understated look.
Finally, the water resistance of the Royal collection is 100 metres, making it suitable for everyday use including occasional exposure to water, but not intended for diving, unlike the Black Bay and Pelagos collections.
Which Watch for Which Profile?
If you are looking for a compact case for a slim wrist → Royal 28 mm or 34 mm.
If you want a more pronounced presence on the wrist → Royal 41 mm.
If you are looking for a dressier watch → two-tone steel and yellow gold version.
If you want a discreet everyday watch → steel version with a black or silver dial.
FAQ
Is the Tudor Royal water-resistant enough for swimming or diving?
The Royal collection is water-resistant to 100 metres, which is sufficient for everyday use involving exposure to water, but it is not designed for diving. For diving, the Black Bay collections or Pelagos watches, with water resistance of 200 metres or more, are better suited.
What is the difference between the Tudor Royal and the Tudor Style?
The Royal, introduced in 2020, is characterized by an integrated bracelet and a fluted bezel. The earlier Style watch features a removable double bezel and a non-integrated bracelet, with a similarly sporty-chic positioning but a distinct design.
Is the gold bezel on Royal models made of solid gold?
Yes. On two-tone versions, the fluted bezel is made of solid 18-carat yellow gold rather than gold plating. The crown and certain bracelet links may also incorporate yellow gold, depending on the reference.
Which case size should you choose for a slim wrist?
The 28 mm and 34 mm diameters are suitable for slim wrists, with a case thickness of around 9.8 mm for the 28 mm model. The 36–38 mm sizes offer an intermediate alternative for unisex wear.
What power reserve do the movements in the Royal collection offer?
Depending on the diameter, the manufacture calibres (MT5412, MT5633, MT5201) offer a power reserve of approximately 65 to 70 hours, making them “weekend-proof.” The T201 calibre used in certain 28 mm references has a power reserve of approximately 38 hours.
