Tudor Black Bay Ceramic M79210CNU-0001

The Tudor Black Bay Ceramic M79210CNU-0001, introduced in 2021, is the first Black Bay with a monobloc matte black ceramic case, fitted with a sapphire caseback that reveals the movement. It runs the in-house Calibre MT5602-1U, METAS Master Chronometer and COSC certified, with roughly 70 hours of power reserve. Cazador has no verified price observations yet. Its standout detail is exactly that combination — an all-ceramic case with a display back, unusual for Tudor.

History

The Black Bay family has been the backbone of Tudor's sport-watch catalog since its 2012 introduction, reinterpreting the brand's 1950s-60s dive-watch heritage in a contemporary language. The Black Bay Ceramic, introduced in 2021, took that language into new territory for the house: a case machined entirely from matte black ceramic, in a monobloc design that fuses the case body and lugs into a single microblasted piece.

Unlike most Tudor pieces, which hide the movement behind a solid caseback, the Black Bay Ceramic features a screwed sapphire caseback set into black-PVD steel, revealing a movement finished to a level unusual for the brand: blackened bridges with raised geometric patterns, combining satin-brushed, sandblasted and laser-decorated surfaces, alongside a skeletonized central tungsten rotor.

The unidirectional bezel, in black-PVD steel, carries a graduated black ceramic disc with a sunray satin finish and an engraved 60-minute scale, while the matte black dial, with no date window, pairs applied indexes and hands with aged-beige-toned Super-LumiNova, consistent with the retro aesthetic across the whole Black Bay family.

Inside is the in-house Calibre MT5602-1U, a 25-jewel automatic movement beating at 28,800 vibrations per hour that delivers roughly 70 hours of power reserve and 15,000-gauss magnetic resistance, with dual certification: as a chronometer by COSC and as a Master Chronometer by METAS, the Swiss institute that, beyond accuracy, also evaluates magnetic resistance, water resistance and power reserve on the fully cased watch.

Reference M79210CNU-0001 ships on a hybrid leather-and-rubber strap with a black PVD steel folding clasp, plus an additional beige-striped fabric strap, and retains the 200m water resistance typical of the Black Bay line.
