Besides featuring a dial inspired by the 1950s, the Black Bay 32, 36 and 41 models also use other design details that hark back to the past. They feature a prominent winding crown as a nod to the famous 7924 reference of 1958 (known as the Big Crown), while its characteristic angular hands, known as "Snowflakes", were borrowed from the Tudor watches used by the French National Navy in the 1970s.
One interesting thing about the Black Bay 32, 36 and 41 family is that its models come with plenty of options. The steel version comes with a choice of either a black or a blue dial. These shades offer outstanding contrast and clarity, while luminescent hour markers help ensure legibility in all conditions. For each model, one can choose from a bracelet, a leather strap with a folding clasp, or a fabric strap.
