Model Number 79360N
The Tudor Black Bay Chrono 79360N elegantly marries the brand’s dive watch heritage with the complexity of a chronograph, resulting in a timepiece that’s both a functional tool and a style statement.
Its striking black and white “panda” dial is not only reminiscent of iconic chronographs of the past but also adds a touch of modern flair to this vintage-inspired piece. The bold contrast between the white main dial and the black sub-dials provides excellent readability, while the snowflake hour hand, a signature feature of the Black Bay line, offers a nod to Tudor’s storied past.
Classic Style. World-Class Craftsmanship.
Beyond its aesthetic appeal, the Black Bay Chrono doesn’t skimp on technical prowess. Its chronograph function, a complication that measures short durations and adds a sporty edge to the timepiece, is seamlessly integrated into the design without overshadowing the primary time-telling features.
The robustness of the watch, coupled with its water resistance, marks it as a true tool watch, ready to face both adventures and daily wear. Yet, its undeniably stylish panda dial ensures it won’t look out of place at more formal occasions, demonstrating Tudor’s ability to blend functionality with fashion seamlessly.

Italian Beauty from the Office to the Sea
Functionality, especially for marine enthusiasts and sailors, is where the Luminor Regatta truly shines.

This feature ensures that participants are on the mark as they set sail, underscoring Panerai’s commitment to creating world-class tool watches tailored to specific adventures. Yet, the integration of this complication doesn’t compromise the watch’s aesthetics, ensuring that the Luminor Regatta remains a beacon of style, whether on the waves or enjoying an aperitivo by the marina.
