TUDOR launches a new model of the Pelagos FXD watch, specially created for cyclists of the TUDOR Pro Cycling Team. A cycling-themed chronograph, lightweight and focused on functionality. With a carbon composite case that houses a high-performance Manufacture Caliber, this watch embodies the daring spirit of a team that competes in some of the most challenging cycling races in the world, such as the Giro d’Italia, the from 2024.
Knowing that carbon fiber is the material from which the fastest bicycles are made, TUDOR chose to use carbon composite in the case of the new chronograph created for cyclists. The implementation of titanium parts helps to make the watch definitely more robust, as unpredictable cycling conditions have to be dealt with.
Main points:
- 43 mm black carbon composite case with matte finish and fixed bracelet bars
- Fixed 60-minute graduated bezel
- Tachymetric scale on the dial, specific for cycling
- Matte black dial with applied luminescent monoblock ceramic composite hour markers

Racing displays
The matte black dial with red accents reinforces legibility and references the colors of the TUDOR Pro Cycling Team. The characteristic square hour markers and “Snowflake” hands created in the 1960s by TUDOR to offer larger luminous surfaces and thus improve legibility, now appear in luminescent ceramic composite for excellent legibility in demanding conditions. On the circumference of the dial, printed on a réhaut inclined at 45º, there is a recalibrated tachymetric scale, whose inner ring indicates the speeds at which the cyclists travel.
