Tudor

Tudor was registered in 1926 on behalf of Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex, as a second brand offering sturdy watches at a lower price. For decades it used Rolex cases and bought-in movements, and it supplied dive watches to several navies. After a period away from some markets, it was relaunched with designs drawn from its own archive, and it now fits many models with calibres made in its own facility. Its range is centred on dive, travel and chronograph watches with a distinct snowflake-shaped hand on several models.
