The TUDOR Northflag returns with a new design

Now, in its second generation, the TUDOR Northflag retains the general lines and distinctive design elements of the historical TUDOR watch that inspired it in the first place, the 1973 Ranger II model. It perpetuates the ice-cold legacy of the pioneers it inspired, adding a 24-hour hand to very robust mechanical timekeeping: an essential feature for adventurers operating in regions where months of continuous daylight or darkness obscure the natural passage of time.

BLACK DIAL

The TUDOR Northflag features a very characteristic black dial with large Arabic hour markers, now rendered in monobloc luminous ceramic and paired with a rehaut sporting a 24-hour graduation angled at 45 degrees. The distinctive yellow arrow-shaped 24-hour, yellow angular seconds hand and steel hours and minute hands, complete the historical nod to the original.

Integrated bracelet

Integrated bracelet design

The TUDOR Northflag is fitted on a dedicated two-link, mostly brush-finished, 316L stainless steel integrated bracelet, with polished link chamfers and a TUDOR "T-fit" rapid adjustment clasp. Easy to use, requiring no tools and offering five positions, this practical system allows wearers to carry out fine, instant adjustments of the total length of the bracelet along an adjustment window of 8mm. The clasp also features ceramic ball bearings that ensure a smooth and secure closure in addition to adding a pleasing tactile element to the action of the clasp.

THE GMT MANUFACTURE CALIBRE MT5652-U

Displaying hours, minutes, seconds, the date and GMT functions, the Manufacture Calibre MT5652-U offers the general look and feel of TUDOR Manufacture Calibres with dedicated sun laser design and bears the words "Master Chronometer" on its bridges, emphasising its distinctive performance. Its rotor is fashioned in tungsten monobloc and is openworked. It also features the distinctive laser radial grooving with sand-blasted details. Its bridges and mainplate have alternating sand-blasted and polished surfaces and laser decorations, which can be admired through its transparent case back.

Another notable feature is that the power reserve of the Manufacture Calibre MT5652-U is "weekend-proof" with a METAS-guaranteed 65 hours running time when fully wound. This enables the wearer to take the watch off on a Friday evening and put it back on again on Monday morning without having to wind it.

The seminal British North Greenland Expedition

The planting of a flag often marks firsts, and in the case of TUDOR, the aptly named TUDOR Northflag: where "North" is a reference to the seminal British North Greenland Expedition. It was on the ice sheet in North Greenland, in the 1950s, that TUDOR cemented a "bullet-proof" tool watch reputation, being put to the ultimate test for two long and cold years on the wrists of daring adventurers as part of the equipment issued to the members of the British North Greenland Expedition. This was not the first time, much less the last, that TUDOR watches served their owners dependably, but this time it was all thoroughly documented.
