The Watch: The Tudor Hydronaut II is an often-overlooked gem in the brand’s history—a robust, unapologetically sporty diver that channels the tool watch spirit of vintage Tudor Subs while charting its own design language. One could compare the lug shape to a De Bethune 2X series. This 20060N features a 41mm stainless steel case with sharp lines, crown guards, and a bold bezel in black with a splash of red. The black dial offers luminous hour markers, a date window at 3 o'clock, and bold arrow hands for easy underwater legibility.
Powering the watch is the automatic Tudor Caliber 2824, a reliable workhorse with a 38-hour power reserve. Water resistance is rated to 200 meters, and the solid link bracelet with a folding clasp completes the sporty, no-nonsense profile.
This example comes as a full set, including the original Tudor box, warranty card (dated 2012), and booklets. In excellent condition, it’s a great pick for anyone seeking a rugged, distinctive diver with real pedigree and surprisingly bold design.
Condition: Excellent pre-owned condition. Light wear on bracelet and clasp. Dial and bezel are clean.
Includes: Original box, warranty card (2012), and booklets. Full set.
