Introducing the New TUDOR Pelagos FXD GMT

A Masterpiece of Aviation Heritage and Precision


TUDOR marks a new chapter in its historic relationship with the French Navy, unveiling the Pelagos FXD GMT “Zulu Time.” This timepiece, both sophisticated and technically advanced, builds upon TUDOR’s legacy with the Marine Nationale by extending its usability for French naval aviators of the Aéronautique Navale. Engineered for the unique demands of flight operations, the FXD GMT combines durable construction with a highly functional time-tracking system.

Echoing TUDOR’s 1970s-80s models, this updated GMT edition celebrates the collaboration with the Marine Nationale through an engraved “M.N.24” on the grade 5 titanium case back. This model also represents a milestone as the first in the Pelagos line to earn METAS Master Chronometer certification, underscoring TUDOR’s commitment to precision and resilience.


Key Features & Technical Highlights

1. Precision-Engineered Construction

The Pelagos FXD GMT is crafted from a single block of grade 2 titanium, creating a lightweight yet robust case with fixed strap bars directly integrated into the 42-mm design. This solid construction is complemented by a corrosion-resistant, grade 5 titanium case back, bearing the “M.N.24” engraving to honour its Marine Nationale heritage.

2. Advanced Calibre MT5652-U


The watch is powered by the high-performance Calibre MT5652-U, certified by both COSC and METAS. This chronograph calibre offers a 65-hour power reserve and integrates a silicon balance spring, vertical clutch, and column wheel construction for superior performance. Its functionality extends to forward and backward adjustments with the jumping hour hand, ensuring smooth transitions between time zones.

3. Zulu Time Tracking with Date Synchronization


Designed to meet the needs of global aviators, the watch features a prominent orange “Zulu time” arrow-hand to indicate UTC alongside two additional time zones. The date display at 3 o'clock synchronizes with Zulu time, further enhancing its navigational reliability. The hour hand’s jumping adjustment simplifies setting, ensuring the timepiece is both practical and precise.

5. Signature Julien Faure Strap


The FXD GMT strap pays tribute to TUDOR’s history with the Marine Nationale, crafted by the esteemed French company Julien Faure. Made from 22 mm green polyester, the single-piece strap includes a grade 2 titanium pin buckle and keeper and a removable fabric keeper, evoking the practical style of vintage naval straps.
