⌚⌚ HOTTudor Pelagos FXD Marine Nationale
Fixed-bar military diver made for French Navy.
Our take on the Tudor Pelagos FXD Marine Nationale
The Pelagos FXD was developed with the French Navy's combat swimmer unit, which is why the strap bars are machined from the case itself — a fixed bar cannot fail on a dive. It has no date, no helium valve and no bracelet option, and that focus is exactly the appeal.
