In 1926, “The Tudor” was registered as a trademark by a watch dealer called 'Veuve de Philippe Hüther'. Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex, took over “The Tudor” brand in 1936 with a desire to offer his retailers an alternative, more affordable range of watches to be sold alongside his legendary Rolex timepieces.
Over time, Tudor became well-known for its tool watches, producing watches for professional divers and the military. Between the 1960s and 1980s, several Navy's issued Tudor Submariners to their divers, including the US Navy SEALs and the French Marine Nationale (French Navy).
What’s On Offer
Elegant and undeniably sophisticated, this Tudor Oyster Cased Prince is the epitome of understated luxury. Polished white metal applied baton markers stand proud from the rich blue, as do the graceful lumed stick hands, the date aperture balances out an unostentatious dial design. The Tudor and Oysterdate signatures are crisp and along with the subtle minute track, complete a tasteful package.
The dimensions are slender but the Oyster case gives the illusion of a larger watch and it wears larger than its size, but comfortably on the wrist. The dial is in excellent condition as is the case and has only barely visible signs of wear – this watch has obviously been well looked after and deservedly so.
Fitted with an original signed Rolex bracelet, case, and crown, the Tudor Prince is utterly charming and offers luxury at an affordable price point from one of the most prestigious bloodlines in watchmaking history.
Running well and keeping good time, having just been serviced, and having the benefit of a new battery, this watch will carry the wearer through all manner of occasions as well as being a perfectly appropriate everyday wearer. Snap it up!
