Tudor introduced the Royal collection in 2020 as a contemporary reinterpretation of the 1970s-80s Tudor Prince Oysterdate "Royal," a dress watch that once sat alongside the brand's more sport-oriented lines. With the Royal, Tudor brings that formal profile back into a catalog otherwise dominated by dive and exploration tools like the Black Bay or the Pelagos.
The notched bezel, with its alternating polished and satin surfaces, is the collection's most recognizable visual signature and points directly back to the original Prince Oysterdate's bezel. The silver dial with Roman numerals and the steel bracelet or strap reinforce that dress-watch intent, a clear step away from Tudor's tool-watch aesthetic.
Behind the dial sits caliber T601, an automatic in-house movement developed with Kenissi, delivering roughly 38 hours of power reserve tracked by a dedicated indicator on the dial alongside date and running seconds. The 38 mm case, screw-down crown and 100 m water resistance round out a watch built for everyday wear rather than diving.
This is the 9th Tudor reference Cazador has added to the catalog, and the first from the Royal family: a dress proposition with a power reserve indicator that joins the five Black Bay references, the Pelagos and the Ranger already present, broadening Tudor's catalog beyond its sport and tool-watch lines.

The Royal is a dress line with a notched bezel, Roman-numeral dial and power reserve indicator, while the Black Bay is a tool-watch family inspired by vintage dive watches. They serve two different purposes within Tudor's catalog: one formal, the other sporty.
It's inspired by the 1970s-80s Tudor Prince Oysterdate "Royal," a dress watch from the brand that already featured a notched bezel. The Royal collection, launched in 2020, updates that design with an in-house movement and modern specifications. The core silhouette, though, stays close to the original.
It runs caliber T601, an automatic in-house movement co-developed with Kenissi, offering around 38 hours of power reserve tracked by a dedicated dial indicator, plus date and central seconds. Tudor uses this same movement architecture across several of its current dress and sport references.
It's rated to 100 meters of water resistance, enough for swimming or showering, but it isn't built as a professional dive watch. Its screw-down crown adds extra protection against moisture for everyday wear. For serious diving, Tudor's dedicated tool watches like the Pelagos are the better fit.
The case measures 38 mm in diameter, a size suited to medium wrists and consistent with the collection's dress-watch character, more restrained than the 41-43 mm typical of Tudor's sport lines. That smaller footprint also makes it easier to wear under a shirt cuff.
Because it's an uncommon function across Tudor's catalog, which is mostly built around tool watches without extra complications. The power reserve indicator makes the Royal one of the technically richest dress offerings in the brand's current lineup, alongside its distinctive notched bezel.
