This Watch
We have here a fabulous mini Tudor Oyster Royal from 1962. The original, silver dial has aged beautifully to an eggshell and is in great condition. A combination of Arrow head and unique Arabic 12 -3-6 and 9 in a Rolex Explorer style sitting inside an outer minute track. The dial is signed 'Tudor, Oyster' with the small rose at 12 o'clock and 'Shock Resisting' at 6 and chrome, sword style hour, minute and sweeping central seconds are in the middle of the watch, giving this watch a timeless elegance.
The polished, beveled bezel draws the eye to the dial and provides a nice contrast to the brushed, stainless steel, three-piece, Oyster case, which also has a Rolex-signed, screw-down crown at 3 o'clock. The case measures 23mm, and while this was a typical size for a ladies watch in this period, the modern woman may find it a little on the small side. but then again its such a stunning piece it doesn't really matter. Inside is the manually wound ETA caliber with 17 jewels, fully serviced by us and running strongly. To add to this package the watch still possesses its original rare Rolex oyster bracelet And Vintage Tudor Box
Extra Points
Just after the Second World War, Hans Wilsdorf, founder of Rolex, knew that the time had come to expand and give the Tudor brand a true identity of its own. He created the “Montres TUDOR S.A.” company on the 6th March 1946, specialising in models for men and women. Rolex guaranteed the technical, aesthetic, and functional characteristics, along with the distribution and after-sales service.
In 1947 Tudor introduced the Oyster, their first waterproof watch, building on the success of the Rolex Oyster of the same period. In 1952, 26 Tudor Oyster Prince watches were included in the British scientific expedition to Greenland, organised by the Royal Navy and sponsored by The Queen. This showed the world how robust Tudor Oyster watches were.
This watch comes fully serviced by our on-site workshop and with a 12 month, non-waterproof service cover.
