Show Notes
In this episode, we are going to talk about the recent release from Tudor, the Ranger in 36mm with the additional colourway.
The Tudor Ranger 36mm comes in a stainless-steel case measuring 36mm wide, around 11.2mm thick, with a brushed finish, domed sapphire crystal, and 100 meters of water resistance. It’s powered by Tudor’s in-house MT5402 automatic movement, offering COSC certification and a 70-hour power reserve, and is paired with a steel bracelet featuring a T-fit micro-adjust clasp. Compared to the 39mm Ranger, the dial layout and overall tool-watch aesthetic remain unchanged, but the smaller case brings shorter lug-to-lug proportions and a more vintage-correct feel on the wrist. The 36mm also swaps the MT5402’s larger-case presence for improved wearability, making it feel closer to classic field watches rather than a modern sports watch.
