Tudor 1926

While Rolex’s sister company may be famed for its tool watches, not every timepiece the company makes fits into the utilitarian mold. To wit: The 1926 line, introduced in 2019, pays homage to the early days of the brand when dressier pieces constituted the majority of the maison’s offerings. Elegant and unisex, the 1926 watches are available in a variety of metals, sizes, dials, and more — and best of all, because they use sourced Swiss movements, they’re relatively affordable. The particular 1926 we have here is a perfect everyday option for men and women alike. Housed in a 39mm stainless steel case with a polished bezel, a signed crown, and a sapphire crystal, it features an attractive white ‘honeycomb’ dial with applied gilt ‘dart’ and ‘Arabic’ indices, a matching ‘feuille’ handset, and a date window at 3 o’clock. Powered by a Tudor automatic movement and paired to a multi-link stainless steel bracelet with a signed, deployant clasp, this handsome piece could easily be mistaken for a Tudor from the 1950s. Dating to the 2020s, it makes for an excellent everyday option that can be worn dressed up or dressed down. Simple, attractive, reliable, timeless — all these qualities have made Tudor watches some of the best buys in all of horology.  Try this 1926 on for yourself, and we know you’ll feel the same!
