Tudor Prince for North Greenland

Post by kempoman » Wed May 01, 2024 10:42 pm

Gents, when Tudor presented Ranger in 2022 for 70th anniversary years for North Greenland Expedition i felt is not right. It was originally Prince that was supplied to the Expedition.

Then i discover the recent discontinued Tudor Style M12500 with dauphine hands and design are heritage originated from Prince! Like Ranger, Style could rank as a tool watch for 100M WR and screwed down crown. The sole difference of the price for Ranger vs Style is the in house movement vs ETA.

I am tired with Tudor sport and diver models plus the snowflake hands especially. May be i am also biased with my TV series of the year - Ripley wearing a plain bezel Rolex datejust on his wrist.

I wish Tudor could reissue Prince (no date) on 80th anniversary of the Expedition.

Nice watch! Tudor should consider to re-introduce Prince.
