Lunar Elegance in Motion - The new TUDOR 1926 Luna
Just ahead of the Mid-Autumn Festival, when the moon hangs brightest in the sky, TUDOR unveiled something quietly remarkable: its very first moon phase watch. It arrives not in the Black Bay or Pelagos lines, but in the understated elegance of the 1926 collection, a fitting stage for a complication that has always balanced precision with poetry.
A Lunar First for TUDOR
The 1926 Luna marks the brand’s debut moon phase complication, introduced in a collection that has always embodied understated elegance and timeless design. At 39mm, with a polished stainless steel case and waterproofing to 100 meters, it is equal parts refined and robust
Heritage Meets Imagination
For TUDOR, the 1926 Luna is more than a new release. It is a continuation of the brand’s founding spirit, the philosophy Hans Wilsdorf envisioned in 1926 when he registered the TUDOR name, a watch of uncompromising quality that remains accessible. Working with TUDOR’s designers, Jay Chou added his creative flair to the champagne dial, envisioning a “phantom moonlight” disc that waxes and wanes behind a shadowed cutout, a nod to artistry as much as mechanics.
Precision Beyond Time
At its heart, the watch carries the chronometer-grade Calibre T607-9, a Swiss self-winding movement with a moon phase complication at six o’clock. Not only does it measure hours and minutes with exacting precision, it also follows the 29.5-day lunar cycle, bridging the practical and the poetic.
The Details That Endure
Available in domed black, blue, or champagne-coloured dials, the 1926 Luna plays with light and shadow in subtle, elegant ways. The bracelet, with its alternating polished and satin-brushed links, is distinctly TUDOR: comfortable, refined, and built to last. Like the moon phase itself, it is a detail that rewards time spent looking closer.
