A Triumph in Pink
Imagine the thrill of victory, the roar of the crowd, and the pure elation of crossing the finish line. For Tadej Pogačar (UAE Team Emirates), this year's Giro d'Italia victory was nothing short of spectacular. As he stood on the podium, the official timekeepers, Tudor, presented him with a very special Tudor Pelagos FXD Chrono; a unique 'one of one' pink edition, crafted specifically to honour his achievement.
The Giro d'Italia | A Race of Legends
The Giro d'Italia 2024 saw 21 gruelling stages, a true test of endurance and skill. Since 1909, it has challenged cyclists to traverse Italy's breath taking landscapes, from the rugged Dolomites to the sun soaked coasts. It's a race that blends beauty with unparalleled difficulty, making every victory a legendary feat.
Tudor's Timeless Partnership
This year, Tudor took their role as the official timekeeper to new heights. They introduced the Pelagos FXD Chrono "Cycling Edition," a watch designed to meet the demanding needs of professional cyclists and tool engineered to withstand the relentless challenges of the road.
The Symbolic Pink Edition
The pink edition presented to Pogačar is a tribute to his triumph. The pink colour represents the Maglia Rosa, the coveted "pink jersey" worn by the leader of the Giro d'Italia. This special edition is a symbol of excellence and dedication, much like the man who now wears it.
The Pelagos FXD Chrono "Cycling Edition"
The watch appears to be the same Pelagos FXD Chrono "Cycling Edition" released at the start of the Giro, but in pink. The commercial black and red version features a 43mm black carbon composite case, ensuring durability without added weight. Titanium elements enhance its robustness, while the Manufacture Calibre MT5813 keeps it ticking with COSC certified precision. With a 70 hour power reserve, it's built for endurance, much like the cyclists it’s made for.
Tadej Pogačar's Giro d'Italia victory and the presentation of his pink Tudor Pelagos FXD Chrono is a story of triumph and celebration. It’s a reminder of the incredible synergy between cycling and timekeeping, where every second counts and every victory is timeless.
Following the Miami FC Tudor in pink, this colourway seems to be becoming a trend. We can't help but wonder what's in store next for Tudor as we move through the rest of 2024.
