The Tudor Pelagos stands as the Geneva brand's contemporary divers' wristwatch par-excellence. In an effort to provide the sporty wearer with both comfort and high-grade technology, the Pelagos boasts a strong 42.5mm case which is complemented by a comfortable and resilient bracelet. This singular divers' watch features a well-engineered helium escape valve and further increases daily usability with the addition of a date and a matte dial. Its water-resistance nature allows for the tool-watch to be worn in any given scenario, making it a perfect companion with its own identity and strong ties to Tudor's mother company: Rolex.
Adding to the already impressive nature of this watch is the unique association with the British Royal Navy Clearance Diver division, a highly skilled and formidable force. This watch was presented to Royal Navy divers, with the case back including their emblem and the dial also bearing a line at 6 o'clock marking their 70th anniversary. This example features a special engraving on the back reading E.O.D., which stands for Explosive Ordnance Disposal. This was added by the manufacturer at the request of the owner of the watch, an active member In the Royal Navy, which further enhances the rarity and uniqueness of the watch.
