The one watch charity piece from Tudor was a matt black ceramic with a display case back. I wonder if it will spawn the same tech in their mainstream range.....
It’s a bit bland, that open case back is particularly boring.
It'll never catch on (cough)
Anyway - I hazard a guess they would want to make use of the tools to make further ceramic cases and parts - seeing as they have already invested.

Entirely matt back, not a nice look IMHO
Just awful.
When you look long into an abyss, the abyss looks long into you.........
I had this thought when I saw it too... We know the exact reference won’t go into production, but I would be surprised if we don’t get a ceramic Black Bay at some point. Perhaps a more legible, more sensible one with white lume? Maybe they will attempt a ceramic bracelet? Maybe it will replace the PVD steel Black Bay Dark?
I like that, a lot.
It's just a matter of time...
I'll happily apartheid estimate though lol

The faces of each of these look strangely desolate of detail.
I’m sure that they will use the case in future production models, probably with different hands, dial, insert like they did a few years ago with the on of one Black dialled Black Bay. It’s nice the case is 41mm instead of being upscaled which seems common for Ceramic cased versions of steel watches.

Tudor already do a Ceramic?
That Tudor reminds me of a quote from a live show with Rowan Atkinson back in 1979, "Because we don't want to end up, do we, like the blind man in the dark room looking for the black cat . . . that isn't there".
From their advert:
Dial:
Matt black, domed Black gloss markings Darkened hour markers applied with black luminescent material with green emission Darkened hour markers applied with black luminescent material with green emission Darkened Snowflake hands with black luminescent material with green emission

Will ceramic shatter if dropped?
I imagine it will be hard but brittle, like those Rado sapphire watches, who's model name escapes me right now.
It sure will. They will resist scratches however unless one is very keen to scratch it.Originally Posted by Wilson_smyth
Tudor really can't do the whole missing end links thing-it just looks terrible. pArt from that though I think it's an interesting move-as said above, a regular version with perhaps orange or red hands/lume would look terrific-as long as it had solid end links!
They do a ceramic mono block case in the fastrider but not bezel
The bezel is ceramic too on the Fastrider.
I’ve got one. Love it. The black bay one in the link however. Not so much.BEZEL
Fixed matt black ceramic bezel with engraved tachymetric scale
Ah I didn’t think the bezel was ceramic - thanks for clarifying
The bezel on the Black Shield & 42010N is ceramic - it's the crown and pushers that are PVD / not ceramic.
The piece unique looks like one of those Unimatic watches to me...
nice display case back, i guess this is the first tudor / rolex diver to have one ?
Yes, it is.

Really doesn’t do it for me. Money for a good cause though!
