Tudor Royal 28mm

Tudor expands its Royal collection with a shimmering new 28mm model featuring a sunray blue dial set with diamonds and framed by a diamond-set bezel, offered in both full stainless steel and two-tone steel and yellow gold configurations. This latest iteration blends the Royal line’s integrated elegance with an added layer of luxury, elevating the sport-chic formula with refined sparkle and formal appeal. While continuing the aesthetic themes established in earlier models, this release marks the first time that diamonds and a blue dial appear together in the same Royal reference.

The elegant 28mm case is crafted from 316L stainless steel and measures just 4.8mm thick, offering a compact and slim profile ideal for smaller wrists. It features a sophisticated combination of polished and satin-brushed surfaces that enhance the geometric lines of the Royal collection, while maintaining a distinctly refined appearance. A fixed notched bezel (also available in gold) encircles the case, adorned here with brilliant-cut diamonds that elevate the visual appeal of this sport-chic design.
On the reverse side, a solid screw-down caseback hides the self-winding movement within. The watch continues Tudor’s integrated design language with a seamless transition from the lugs to the bracelet, lending the case a unified, sculpted feel. The low profile is enhanced by the curved case sides and short lug-to-lug span, making the watch particularly well-suited for formal or daily wear.
It comes equipped with a fluted screw-down setting crown, embossed with the Tudor shield logo. All topped by a flat sapphire crystal for added scratch resistance and clarity. While the model leans toward the dressier end of Tudor’s offerings, its durability and design retain a sporty edge. Water-resistance can reach up to 100 meters (330 feet).
Time is exhibited on a sunray-brushed blue dial that radiates from the center, delivering a vivid interplay of light and depth under changing angles. Enhancing the dial’s luxurious presence are eight diamond-set hour markers, each framed in polished settings, which alternate with Roman numerals applied at 12, 2, 4, 6, 8, and 10 o’clock. The partially truncated “III” at 3 o’clock makes room for a date aperture, although its visual interruption may be seen as a divisive detail among purists.The applied Roman numerals and diamond markers align with the Tudor Royal’s elegant and ornamental character, while still allowing for clear timekeeping. At the center, a set of baton-style hour and minute hands are treated with Grade A Swiss Super-LumiNova® to provide low-light visibility, while the central seconds hand sweeps smoothly across the dial’s radiant surface.Although the combination of diamonds and Roman numerals has appeared in past Royal models, this is the first time Tudor has merged the configuration with a blue dial, creating a refined new expression of the line’s signature aesthetic. The overall effect is cohesive and balanced, merging classic motifs with a quietly modern polish.
