Few, if any, sport event comes close to the Formula One World Championship. With only a handful of races left in the 2024 season, the competition, hailed as the pinnacle of motorsports, continues to make headlines. Naturally, this also means new interest in the teams and racers battling it out on the circuits. And on that note, one new team formation that caught a lot of attention is the Visa Cash App RB Formula One Team, which competes with Swiss watch brand TUDOR as its official partner.
Now, TUDOR is no stranger to motorsports. Case in point: The Tudor Watch Racing Team played a major part in the golden age of motorsports in the late 1960s. More recently, it was the title sponsor of the IMSA TUDOR United SportsCar Championship from 2014 to 2015. Fans of the brand and watch connoisseurs are probably familiar as well with TUDOR’s motorsport-inspired timepieces, such as the Grantour Chronograph.
Fast forward to this year again, and TUDOR is back on the grid of the most exciting motorsport event. “TUDOR has always been fueled by a daring spirit, a consistent will to do things differently,” says TUDOR CEO Eric Pirson. “And this spirit—we call it Born to Dare—is exactly what Visa Cash App RB is demonstrating heading into the 2024 F1 season. We’re beyond thrilled to return to motorsport with a partner that’s ready to take on the challenge.”

To further cement this exciting partnership, TUDOR has created a team-exclusive version of its Master Chronometer-certified Black Bay Ceramic featuring a blue dial to match the team’s striking livery. Naturally, these new watches can be seen on the wrists of Visa Cash App RB Formula One Team drivers.
As its name indicates, the TUDOR Black Bay Ceramic “Blue” comes in a 41mm matt black ceramic. The color and texture of the case really helps the domed dial pop out. The dial, in turn, features applied hour markers and—of course—the brand’s signature “Snowflake” hands, which has been one of the hallmarks of TUDOR divers’ watches that were introduced back in 1969. To further enhance readability even under low light conditions, the hands have been treated with Grade X1 Swiss Super-LumiNova.
Also worth noting is how the strap of the TUDOR Black Bay Ceramic “Blue” uses a hybrid leather and rubber construction, which is further enhanced with blue stitching that matches the dial. A complementary black fabric strap with a blue center band is also provided for occasions that call for a more formal appearance.

As a proper racing-themed watch, and one associated with a Formula One team no less, it’s what’s “under the hood” that really matters. In this case, the TUDOR Black Bay Ceramic “Blue” is driven by the Manufacture Calibre MT5602-1U. The movement is not only certified as a chronometer by the Official Swiss Chronometer Testing Institute (COSC), but actually goes beyond these already-stringent standards to meet the requirements for the METAS Master Chronometer certification.
In a nutshell, the Calibre MT5602-1U’s daily variance is between 0/+5 (the watch loses 0 seconds per day and gains no more than 5 seconds), which is considerably tighter than the COSC standard (-4/+6) as well as TUDOR’s own internal standard for accuracy (-2/+4). Furthermore, the movement is also able to maintain this level of accuracy while being subjected to magnetic fields of 15,000 gauss (equivalent to a modern MRI machine) and has guaranteed waterproofness.
This level of mechanical excellence, along with a similarly high-tech approach to aesthetics, is what TUDOR’s brand of watchmaking is all about. To that end, the TUDOR Black Bay Ceramic “Blue” presents a stellar example of this principle in action, as well as being a most fitting timepiece to celebrate one of the most tech-forward sports.
