Advice on tudor prince oyster dates...
Greetings everyone,
Lately i've been finding myself hankering for a vintage Tudor of some sort. Some days its a tudor sub and some days prince oyster dates. They seem to be more available in the asia markets specifically hong kong and japan dealers on ebay have the choice pieces. I am in America and thus unable to examine these by hand. Ebay does provide some protection but how do forum members feel about going to international ebay watch dealers. thanks everyone for advice and comments. |

I've bought multiple Tudors from international sellers, including dtwatches (Dickson) on this forum. As you've noticed, the selection is way better in places like Hong Kong. Buy from a reputable seller and you'll be fine.

thank you, I am very grateful for all the assistance I can get. They say a lot of fakes out there especially with tudor subs but hoping its not as bad with the date or day date models.

The Tudor jumbos are an excellent "modern sized" wearable watch.

As Adam has pointed out prior, Tudor is actually still selling the Date+Day in 36mm (and the Date in 34mm) at ADs in Hong Kong. I can’t think of a current Rolex/Tudor watch that’s more like stepping into the past to buy a brand new watch 40+ years ago. I love mine.
