The Tudor Black Bay GMT S&G brings a fresh twist to the travel-ready GMT formula, blending the Black Bay’s vintage-inspired design with a luxurious steel and gold execution. Introduced as an expansion of Tudor’s GMT lineup, this model stands out with its warm two-tone aesthetic and the signature burgundy and black 24-hour bezel, evoking classic dual-time watches while offering a distinct identity within the Black Bay family.

Reference 79833MN houses the in-house automatic MT5652 caliber, prized for its robust power reserve and independently adjustable local hour hand—a true travel complication. The 41mm case delivers substantial wrist presence without feeling oversized, while 200m water resistance adds practical versatility. Variants include bracelet and leather strap options, with pricing influenced by bracelet type and overall condition; full sets with box and papers typically command a premium.

When comparing examples, check for the original bi-metal bracelet and correct "root beer" bezel insert, as these are key value drivers. Early production pieces and those with minimal wear tend to attract collectors seeking long-term value. The Black Bay GMT S&G offers a compelling mix of everyday usability and classic two-tone appeal, making it a standout choice among modern GMTs.

What owners love

  • The two-tone S&G execution stands out among GMTs, offering a vintage-inspired look that feels more unique and luxurious than typical steel models.
  • The MT5652 in-house movement is praised for its true “flyer” GMT functionality, letting you jump the local hour hand independently.
  • The bezel action is consistently described as crisp and satisfying, with a distinctive colorway that owners say looks richer in person than in photos.

Common Criticisms

  • The case is noticeably thick and sits high on the wrist, making it feel bulky compared to other GMT options.
  • Many dislike the faux rivets on the bracelet, viewing them as unnecessary and detracting from the otherwise upscale appearance.
  • The gold elements are gold-capped or plated rather than solid, which leaves some owners disappointed given the price point and appearance.
