All factory original Tudor Rolex small rose Prince OysterDate automatic
c. 1959. 34mm x 41mm Rolex Oyster case ref. #7966 in solid surgical
stainless steel with original screw down crown. Absolutely Mint original
and gorgeous silver satin dial with applied faceted markers and framed
date window with all original luminous material intact (no longer glows.)
This Prince Oysterdate also possesses its very attractive original &
un-retouched dauphine hands. Movement is immaculate high-grade 25-jewel
full-rotor automatic Tudor-signed movement with semi-quickset date (by
repeatedly moving the hands between approximately 9PM & Midnight,
one can rapidly advance the date) that is freshly serviced and keeping
good time. Original scratch resistant crystal with Cyclops window over
date 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 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 the Rolex logo dial or pay twice the price for
the Rolex logo on the dial. Fitted with a new brown padded leather strap.
Very collectable Rolex Tudor and perfect for everyday wear.
