Tudor Fastrider Chrono Ducati Full Set

Unleash the power of the grid with the Tudor Fastrider Chronograph 42000D, a timepiece born from the legendary partnership between Tudor and the iconic motorcycle brand, Ducati. Launched to celebrate Tudor’s role as Ducati’s timing partner, the 42000D is a masterclass in motorsport-inspired horology, blending rugged durability with a “speed-obsessed” design language.

Racing DNA and Architectural Design The 42000D is housed in a 42mm fine-brushed stainless steel case, accented by a fixed bezel with an engraved tachymeter scale capable of measuring speeds up to 400 units per hour. The star of the show is the high-gloss “Ducati Red” dial, which provides a high-contrast backdrop for the three black sub-dials (small seconds, 30-minute, and 12-hour counters) and the applied Arabic numerals, ensuring maximum legibility at high velocities.

Precision Engineering: Calibre 7753 Reliability is paramount in racing, and the Fastrider delivers with the Calibre 7753 automatic movement. This 27-jewel engine beats at 28,800 vph and is renowned for its robustness and ease of service. A standout technical detail is the integrated date corrector at 9 o’clock; instead of a traditional crown-set date, Tudor incorporated a recessed pusher shaped like the brand’s shield, adding a tactical feel to the watch’s operation.

A Collector’s Choice Now discontinued, the Ref. 42000D has become a sought-after piece for both watch enthusiasts and “Ducatisti” alike. Whether paired with the perforated “racing” leather strap—reminiscent of vintage motorcycle upholstery—or the solid stainless steel bracelet, this watch offers a distinct alternative to the Black Bay line. With a screw-down crown and a solid caseback, it provides a versatile 150m depth rating, proving that it is a serious tool watch both on and off the asphalt.
