Tudor Royal Day-Date 30 Stainless Steel / Salmon Ref. M2830A1A0-0003

The Tudor Royal M2830A1A0-0003 debuted in 2026 as a 30mm stainless steel model within the updated Royal collection, pairing a salmon dial with applied stick hour markers. In this size, the time-only display and baton-marker layout give the watch a notably open dial structure, while the warmer dial colour sets it apart from the cooler silver and light blue variants. Its stainless steel case measures 30mm in diameter and 8.7mm in height, making it the most compact execution in the current Royal line. The case combines polished and satin-brushed surfaces and is fitted with the revised notched bezel introduced for this generation, alongside a screw-down crown, sapphire crystal, and 100 metres of water resistance. As on the rest of the updated Royal family, the end-link and case relationship was also revised so the bracelet links no longer touch the case directly. The salmon dial is fitted with applied stick hour markers and no calendar indications. That leaves the display notably uncluttered, with the dial colour taking on a greater role in the identity of the watch. Compared with the more decorative 30mm executions that mix Roman numerals and diamond-set markers, this reference is more direct in character, while the warmer tone keeps it from feeling austere. Inside is the Tudor Manufacture Calibre MT5201, a self-winding mechanical movement with 26 jewels, bidirectional winding, and a power reserve of approximately 50 hours. It is regulated to -3/+5 seconds per day on the fully assembled watch and features a variable inertia balance, a non-magnetic silicon hairspring, and a stop-seconds function. The integrated five-link stainless steel bracelet combines satin-brushed external and central links with polished intermediate links and closes with a folding clasp and safety catch.
