Lifestyle Watches proudly present this Tudor Black Bay Heritage Ref:79220N in first class condition and benefitting from a Tudor service in 2022.

 

The Black Bay celebrates 60 years of diving watches with extraordinary heritage. The iconic model inherits the general lines, as well as the domed dial and crystal from the first Tudor diving watches. It borrows the characteristic angular hands, known as snowflake, from the watches delivered in large quantities to the French National Navy in the 1970s.

 

The reference 79220 has been produced in three colors: blue, black, and red. The color variants were not released at the same time, and the 79220N was the last reference to hit the market. 

 

The Tudor 79220N was announced on October 14th, 2015 but started appearing in stores in 2016. The Black version 79220N is actually the watch among the three which is the truest to the original heritage reference as it is based on the Tudor Submariner 7922 with both the black bezel and the red register.

 

The 79220N was short lived, during Baselworld 2016, March 17th, only five months later, Tudor discontinued the 79220 reference (with ETA movements) and replaced them with the in-house 79230 reference. With that in mind, you can understand that the Black Bay Black 79220N is a watch that has not had a long production time.

 

Considering the fact that the 79220N was announced discontinued only five months after it was released, it is the shortest production model ever in Tudor’s history. As a result, there are not a huge number of them on the market.
