Introducing the TUDOR Pelagos FXD GMT “Zulu Time,” a watch that redefines precision for aviators and adventurers alike. Born from a legacy of excellence, this timepiece is designed not just for diving, but for those soaring through the skies. With its Master Chronometer certification by METAS, this watch ensures top-notch accuracy, even in the most challenging conditions.
A Design for the Ages
The Pelagos FXD GMT takes cues from its maritime predecessors, merging functionality with striking aesthetics. Crafted from satin-brushed grade 2 titanium, the 42mm case is as robust as it is lightweight, making it ideal for the rigors of both naval and aerial operations. Its iconic “Snowflake” hands—an homage to TUDOR’s diving heritage—are complemented by a bright orange arrow that tracks Zulu time, the universal time reference crucial for aviation communication.
But it doesn’t stop there. The dial boasts a sleek black matte finish, adorned with luminescent markers that glow like stars in the night sky. With a 24-hour bidirectional bezel, pilots can effortlessly track a third time zone, all while maintaining a high contrast that enhances legibility during nighttime missions.
Function Meets Heritage
TUDOR’s partnership with the French Navy dates back to 1956, and the Pelagos FXD GMT is a proud continuation of that storied tradition. This watch serves not only as a tool for aviators but also as a symbol of TUDOR’s commitment to innovation and craftsmanship. Engraved on the case back is the logo of the Aéronautique Navale, signifying its official status as a timekeeping companion for naval aviation.
With a 200-meter water resistance and an impressive 65-hour power reserve, this watch is built to withstand the elements, whether you’re diving deep or flying high. The Manufacture Calibre MT5652-U, featuring a silicon balance spring, exemplifies TUDOR’s cutting-edge technology, ensuring that accuracy remains uncompromised.
The Perfect Fit
Comfort is key, especially for those in the cockpit. The Pelagos FXD GMT comes with a flight-suit green one-piece fabric strap, crafted in France by the renowned Julien Faure company. This strap not only pays tribute to the heritage of the French Navy but also ensures durability and comfort during long missions. With a titanium pin buckle, the strap is as functional as it is stylish.

As the Pelagos FXD GMT makes its mark in the world of luxury timepieces, the question remains: Will this exquisite blend of heritage, precision, and style hit the sweet spot for those who demand the best in their adventures? Whether you’re an aviator or an aficionado of fine watches, this timepiece is bound to elevate your collection.
