This Watch

We have here a Tudor Oyster Royal 7984 from 1965.  The sharp, original, satin silvered dial has a sunburst effect that we can't take our eyes off.  Sleek, chrome, baton markers and stick hour, minute and central seconds hands complete the dial and create a sense of symmetry.  The smaller, Tudor Rose logo is at 12 o'clock where the dial is signed, 'Tudor, Oyster, Royal' and 'Shock-Resisting' at 6.

The 34mm, stainless steel, Oyster case (produced by Rolex) has a polished bezel that draws the eye to the dial.  A thickness of 10mm ensures a comfortable fit on your wrist for both him or her.  A Rolex-signed, screw-down crown is on the right hand side.  On the reverse, a coin-edged screw-down case back.  Inside a manually-wound caliber 1156, fully serviced by us and running strongly.  We've paired the watch on a brown leather strap, but it can wear anything.

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, specializing 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.
