stainless steel with original screw down crown. Near Mint original and
gorgeous matt black dial with applied stainless steel large rose logo,

high-grade 25-jewel full-rotor automatic Tudor-signed movement that
is freshly serviced and keeping good time. Original scratch resistant
crystal is scratch free and clear. Rolex signed watches have a movement
designed and manufactured in-house by Rolex where as the Tudor line
has an ETA ebauche which is a basic movement frame by ETA which is then
completed and finished and regulated to Rolex specifications at the
Rolex factory by Rolex. The Tudor line was created by Hans Wilsdorf
at the end of WW2 when he saw a market for a more modestly priced Rolex
and for the buyer who wanted a dependable waterproof Rolex quality watch
but who didn't want to flaunt their Rolex or pay twice the price for
the Rolex logo on the dial. Fitted with a new black alligator grain
padded leather strap. Very collectable Rolex Tudor and perfect for everyday
wear.
