If my understanding is correct, Tiger Woods endorcement contract with and for Tudor began mid-1997 and ran for about 2.5 years, ending about 2000. Yet, on your list of serial numbers, however, the B905XXX on mine would place it as Circa 1997. You use the term 'earliest' with regard to my Tudor chrono, 79280. Hope you will enjoy wearing your tudor chrono. The 792x0 pre-tiger later on changed from oysterdate to prince date but I don't have a conclusive estimate yet on when it had changed. I will appreciate any comments, suggestions and helpful input.Īccording to your description of your 79280, it appears to be the earliest version with rolex crown, rolex case back, oysterdate (instead of prince date), and 78400 oyster bracelet. The clasp is hallmarked with the Tudor insignia. The bracelet is stainless steel and marked #78400. This watch's crown and back are hallmarked with the Rolex insignia, and the back is engraved 'ORIGINAL OYSTER CASE BY ROLEX GENEVA'. What I can not reconcile is why this watch is designated 'Tudor Oysterdate', rather than 'Tudor Prince Date'. I believe that the papers are original, but I am not qualified to take this fine item apart.įrom reading carefully compiled information by enthusiasts such as Bagel, I have concluded that this watch is circa 1997, Pre-Tiger endorsement. I believe that the Seller added the brochure and outer box to complete the package, nothing more. I did not show the Dealer the accompanying papers or packaging. I was told that this watch was authentic, and a very clean example. Upon receipt, I asked my local Rolex Authorized Dealer to verify authenticity and nothing more. I do not believe that the outer box and Tudor brochure are original. The watch came with original Tudor papers dated 09.08.01 from the 'Goldsmiths Group', which I believe is in the UK. I purchased this watch, several years ago, from a highly regarded seller on ebay. I believe this to be a model #79280 with serial #B905XXX. I own a Rolex Tudor Oysterdate chronograph in stainless steel. I am new to this forum, and to this area of study. Here is my recent updates () that I have posted in Timezone and HK Rolex Club Forum, and would like to share with you here as well.
