TUDOR is a Swiss-made watch brand, offering mechanical watches with sophisticated style and proven reliability. The origins of TUDOR date back to 1926, when “The TUDOR” was first registered as a brand on behalf of Rolex founder, Hans Wilsdorf. Throughout their history, TUDOR watches have been chosen by the boldest adventurers and seasoned professionals alike.
In February 1926, Hans Wilsdorf had the trademark “The Tudor” registered and started making watches bearing that signature on the dial. Just after the Second World War, Hans Wilsdorf knew that the time had come to expand and give the brand a proper identity of its own. On 6 March 1946, he created “Montres TUDOR S.A.”, specialising in models for both men and women. Rolex would guarantee the technical, aesthetic and functional characteristics, along with the distribution and after-sales service.
As a child, David Beckham had a dream. Whenever asked about what he would want to be later in life he invariably answered “a football player”. This early drive led him to become one of the most acclaimed, loved and successful players in the history of the game. With three major clubs and 115 selections in the English football team, 59 as captain, he left his mark: 6 England Championship titles, 2 Major League Soccer cups, one time Champion of Spain and one time UEFA Champion.
On July 8, 1952 the British North Greenland Expedition left for a two-year scientific mission. Equipped with the Tudor Oyster Prince by their sides, the members of the expedition were commissioned by Tudor to collect operating data from the timepiece in the most extreme conditions.
