Tudor P01 Strap. We ve seen these types of straps at hublot and zenith. The tudor p01 an abbreviation of prototype 01 featured a chunky case with an embedded dial a separate crown jutting off to the side and a mixed materials strap.
Tudor p01 hybrid leather strap a combination of rubber and leather. Unlike last year s black bay 58 or gmt watches i get the sense that the p01 was never meant to be a product with broad commercial appeal it s a set piece designed to get us talking about tudor s long history making. The new tudor black bay p01 is born from a 60s prototype that was designed with a very unusual locking bezel mechanism at its core.
In the 1960s the tolerances on watches weren t what they are today.
Like all other models in the black bay line the p01 adopts the tudor hands with their characteristic angular shape known to collectors as snowflake which appeared in the brand s 1969 catalogue. While eminently practical being water resistant the hybrid strap doesn t quite fit the watch and is the only thing i would change about it. In a first for tudor the strap on the p01 is a hybrid leather and rubber creation. As well as a few lady models.
