A Nod to Cycling Prestige
Tudor has surprised the watch world with a vibrant tribute to one of cycling’s most prestigious events—the Giro d’Italia. Just days after launching the Black Bay Chrono “Carbon 25,” Tudor unveiled the Pelagos FXD Chrono “Pink,” a 300-piece limited-edition timepiece commemorating its role as the Official Timekeeper of the race. This rare model captures the spirit of the Maglia Rosa (pink jersey), awarded to the winner of the Giro, blending horology with sporting excellence.
Subtle but Symbolic Design Changes
On the surface, the Pelagos FXD Chrono “Pink” looks similar to last year’s “Cycling Edition,” but a closer inspection reveals thoughtful differences. Instead of the red detailing seen on its predecessor, this edition features pink accents across the dial and chronograph registers. It’s not a radical redesign, but it delivers a fresh and elegant take that suits the theme perfectly.
Specs and Functionality Remain Solid
Built from carbon composite, the case retains its 43mm diameter and 13.2mm thickness. The screw-down titanium crown and pushers, 100-meter water resistance, and domed sapphire crystal all carry over. Inside ticks Tudor’s reliable Caliber MT5813—a COSC-certified chronograph movement with a 70-hour power reserve and modern silicon hairspring.
Final Thoughts
While the watch doesn’t break new ground mechanically, the limited production—just 300 units—makes this one of Tudor’s rarest modern releases. Priced at $5,600, the Pelagos FXD Chrono “Pink” isn’t just a sporty luxury piece—it’s a celebration of endurance, elegance, and exclusivity.
