Overview
The Tudor Royal 28 (ref. 28300) is the smallest expression of the Royal collection, presenting a 28 mm stainless steel case proportioned for a refined, dress-oriented wear. Introduced in 2020, it carries the collection's signature integrated-style bracelet aesthetic into a compact format suited to a wide range of wrists. Dial options spanning black, blue, silver, and mother-of-pearl give the reference a versatility that bridges everyday elegance and formal occasions.
History
Tudor launched the Royal collection in 2021 as a modern, integrated-bracelet line positioned to broaden the brand's reach beyond its sport-watch heritage. The 28 mm variant arrived as the entry-level size within that family, acknowledging a long-standing collector and consumer preference for smaller dress watches. Powering the reference is the Cal. T201, an automatic movement built on the well-regarded ETA 2671 base, a reliable and widely serviced platform with a strong track record in slim dress-watch applications. The Royal 28 has remained in continuous production since its introduction, cementing its place as a consistent pillar of the modern Tudor catalogue.
Notable points
- 28 mm stainless steel case makes the Royal 28 one of Tudor's most compact modern references, designed expressly for a dress-watch context.
- Cal. T201 is an automatic movement derived from the ETA 2671, a slim, proven base long associated with elegant, low-profile watch construction.
- Four distinct dial variants — black, blue, silver, and mother-of-pearl — allow the reference to address both classic and contemporary aesthetic preferences.
- The integrated-bracelet design, a defining trait of the Royal line, lends the 28300 a cohesive, contemporary silhouette uncommon at this case size in Tudor's history.
- Introduced in 2020, the reference represents Tudor's deliberate expansion into refined dress-watch territory, complementing the brand's established sport and tool-watch identity.
