Introduced in 2026, the Tudor Royal M2840D1A3-0002 stands out as a 40mm day-date model in the refreshed Royal collection. Its elegant design features a blend of stainless steel and yellow gold, highlighted by a champagne-toned dial and a harmonious two-tone bracelet. What sets this watch apart in the Royal series is its unique stick marker arrangement, which replaces the Roman numerals found in earlier models, offering a distinct aesthetic.

The watch boasts a 40mm diameter and measures 11.4mm in height, showcasing a sophisticated combination of polished and satin-brushed finishes on the case with gold embellishments. A solid yellow gold fixed bezel enhances its bold yet refined silhouette, adhering to the sharply notched style established in the updated Royal family. A screw-down winding crown, made from steel and accented with yellow gold, features the Tudor shield in relief, ensuring it remains both functional and stylish. With a water resistance of 100 metres, the sapphire crystal safeguards the champagne dial, which again uses stick markers for a cleaner look. The watch maintains the traditional day-date format with the day displayed at 12 o'clock and the date at 3 o'clock, yet the new marker design offers a fresh balance to the face.

Powering this timepiece is the Tudor Manufacture Calibre MT5633, a self-winding mechanical movement characterized by its bidirectional rotor system, 26 jewels, and a power reserve nearing 70 hours. It maintains precise time regulation within a tolerance of -2/+4 seconds per day and features the latest in Tudor's movement technology, such as a variable inertia balance and a non-magnetic silicon hairspring. Complementing the watch is the Royal bracelet, showcasing an integrated five-link design crafted from stainless steel and yellow gold, with center links enveloping a steel core. Finished with a T-fit folding clasp featuring a safety catch and a solid gold Tudor logo, this bracelet enhances the watch's material contrast, while the updated dial layout lends it a modern and understated elegance within the two-tone Royal collection.
