Tudor Oyster timepieces started to appear in 1946 as manual-wind watches. In 1952, the “Oyster Prince” was introduced. Prince signified the presence of an automatic movement and was Tudor’s equivalent of Rolex’s “Perpetual”. They were — and are — one of the most robust movements one could imagine; bulletproof almost!

From the very outset Hans Wilsdorf was clear that these watches would be of the same impeccable quality and reliability as Rolex. He had two key elements that he’d pioneered with Rolex — the Oyster case and the auto-wind movement. His decision to bestow these two unique elements on the Tudor watches was key to making them live up to his high expectations and promise.

This example is excellent condition. Original honest wear on this vintage classic. Unpolished case.
Comes on a new unworn aftermarket stainless steel Oyster Style bracelet. will also come with the shown leather strap if you prefer.
