Love, set and match at Tudor
TYING THE KNOT IS ALL about commitment and being together for the long term. It's also an excuse to wear matching accessories for both fun and style.
Tudor has you covered with two models in a range of sizes that are perfect for the happy couple. The Tudor Black Bay 31/36/39/41 and Tudor Royal boast the pedigree of a luxury brand that has been making watches since 1926. Today, its timepieces are produced in state-of-the-art facilities in Switzerland, the heart of horology.
Featuring colourful dials encased in highly polished metals, Tudor timepieces stand out for offering exquisite looks and craftsmanship at an accessible price point.

Tudor Black Bay 31/36/39/41
As its name suggests, this collection features watches in 31, 36, 39 and 41 mm case options. With its signature fixed bezel and curved case, the watch is anchored on a five-link bracelet that can be easily adjusted up to 8 mm.
Running on a self-winding movement, the watch is fitted with a non-magnetic silicon balance spring that ensures accuracy and reliability. Once set, the movement keeps the watches ticking with high precision.
Even after you take it off, the movement has enough spare power to keep it going for another 70 hours. Remove it on Friday before unwinding for the weekend, and it'll still be going strong when it's time to go back to work on Monday.

For the newlywed couple, Tudor's latest matching gold and stainless steel timepieces make a striking statement.
At 41mm for him and 36 mm with diamonds for her, they boast a yellow, gold bezel on a steel case, attached with a polished yellow gold crown. Precious metals in polished form are a new feature of the Black Bay line, which were previously finished in satin-brush for a matt effect. Both watches are completed with a yellow gold and steel bracelet.
Price: S$8,530 (41 mm), S$12,760 (36 mm)

Tudor Royal
The sporty chic Tudor Royal is distinguished by its integrated metal bracelet attached to a case with a notched or diamond-set bezel. The watches are available in four sizes (28, 34, 38 and 41 mm) with 13 dial variants, all sporting a sunray motif.
Before the debut of these latest models, the dials were mainly black, silver, champagne or blue. Salmon and brown have since been added to its library of hues.
Smart and understated, the brown dial on the 41 mm steel and yellow gold Tudor Royal is an elegant choice for the groom, with a day and date display on the dial.
Meanwhile, the demure salmon dial on the 28 mm full steel version sits pretty on the bride's wrist. The watch's highlight is its mother-of-pearl dial and diamond-set bezel.
Launched in 1926, the Royal collection was given its name to align with the superior quality of its timepieces. A Royal watch was envisioned to be technically perfect, yet affordable. The watch's case is carved from among the most robust stainless steel in existence, the 316L. It is waterproof to 100 metres, thanks to a screw-down crown and case-back.
The self-winding movement of a Royal timepiece is certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute to have met the highest chronometry standards in the watchmaking industry.
The smooth and seamless five-link metal bracelet that comes with the model is satin brushed and highly polished, which speaks of quality design, production and finish.
Price: S$6,000 (41 mm), S$4,450 (28 mm)
