A Tudor Watch With No Obvious Shortcomings

The new Tudor Ranger watch, which will be released in 2022, can be described as a "bucket-shaped" product with its reasonable size, sportier shell shape, simpler disk surface, and MT original movement. The historical Ranger has a watch diameter of 34mm, a black dial with large Arabic numerals at 3/6/9/12 o'clock, and an arrow needle covered with luminous paint, which lays the design foundation of the series. Unlike the Rolex "Test One", each product has the same origin and has no epochal history; the fate of the Tudor Ranger has not been smooth sailing, and has been discontinued since the 1980s.

After years of development, the brand finally restarted the series in 2014. Model 79910 is considered the beginning of the "modern Ranger", and its appearance better restores the style of historical works. While maintaining the same ratio between the hands and the disk, the size was expanded to 41mm, which was in line with the popular trend in watch diameter at the same time. This work is equipped with the classic ETA 2824-2 movement. The most eye-catching feature is the red second hand and the brand’s early “rose flower” logo printed on the dial. The product cycle of Ref.79910 lasted eight years, which left a deep impression on players.

In recent years, sports watches within 40mm have returned to players’ horizons with their exquisite appearance and comfortable wearing experience. Time came to 2022, Tudor released Ranger’s iteration product Ref. 79950. This watch uses a 39mm diameter, which is consistent with the 2016 Rolex “Test One” Ref. 214270. On this basis, it also optimized the shell shape, and the thick bezel and lugs are in line with Black Bay.

The new version of Ranger has eliminated the large area of ​​red second hand, retaining only part of the red at the front of the second hand; the trapezoidal area of ​​the second hand has also been adjusted, slightly closer to the center of the needle axis. In terms of details, the dial has removed the word “SELF-WINDING” that has been criticized as “superfluous” and replaced it with the series name “RANGE”.
