TUDOR CHRONOGRAPH BIG BLOCK 79180-Advice

Hi People,
can anyone advise me if Tudor 79180 (chronograph) came with a blue and orange dial? I have only managed to find 1 picture of a blue and Orange dial and I'm wondering if its a mock up? I have seen numerous,white,silver and black dials.

Thanks

I don't believe they ever did. I think the early 94200s were the last models offered with those colours.

Don't want to hijack the thread, but has anyone else noticed prices on eBay seem to be coming down on the older Tudor Chronographs. Big block, but really the Tigers more so.

Big Block

No I hadn't. I find ebay tricky.. One is never sure what may receive. I am how ever very surprised at the re sale value on the heritages. They seemed to be all the rage then and now 2800-4000k with papers and nato and steel strap

I was looking at a 94200, the predecessor of the 79160, but decided against it, mainly for financial reasons. It's still for sale though, and I might pick it up later this summer. I think Tudor Chronos are great, I much prefer them to newer Daytonas. They have more character, IMO.
