Tudor, the not-so-ugly sister brand of Rolex, is a brand that has only grown in stature due to modern-day classics such as the black bay 58. Still, if you look back a few generations, you will find a catalogue of classic watches that mirror the Rolex of that time (at a more affordable price). 

This Tudor Oysterdate boasts a refined stainless steel case and a tan strap, showcasing a stunning silver dial. Its sleek silver hands and elegant hour markers exude sophistication, capturing the essence of vintage charm. 

Beyond its captivating aesthetics, this watch is a true performer. Powered by reliable automatic movement, the Tudor Oyster Prince ensures accurate timekeeping, eliminating the need for winding or battery replacements. Its robust construction and water resistance make it a versatile companion for everyday wear.
