Is this Tudor a Mens,Unisex or Boys size

I have what I believe is a 1992 Tudor, case numbers being 72033 and B4999xx
As its a wee bit smaller in dia at gold bezel ,31 mm, it begs the question..Is it mans ,unisex or a boys model. Does anyone know? I would also be interested in what ETA movement it has.This watch is pictured on this forum in the Tudor serial numbers Database. Thanking you in advance

The ones that have model number 74xxx are a bit bigger than the 72xxx's. The latter are midsized

Thank you Harry, from that I assume its a mans watch that could also be used by ladies.From memory I thought my old Tudor Minisub was of same size or possibly smaller.And that was a mans watch.

I wore a 72000 and was happy w/ it. It's smaller but very nice. One day I will get my wife a mini sub. Great piece. Harry

Is it a man's watch, a woman's, a boy's, unisex? Like any other watch it can be exactly what you want it to be and what you are comfortable with.

Do you still have your 72033? I purchased one of these a few weeks ago. Here are some notes - I'd be interested in your comments.

Tudor Prince Oysterdate 72033

ETA 2824-2 automatic movement [not had the case back off but have seen images that confirm this]. Loses about 5 seconds per day - just within the Rolex tolerances. Manufactured 1992/3 with serial number B400XXX. On a SS and gold-plated bracelet stamped ‘Tudor Watch Co. Geneva Switzerland’ with two-tone end links.

The fashion for larger cases means that the mid-size range offers a high-specification for the price, provided the wearer has a small wrist (mine is 17cm). SS case with 14k [18k?] gold fluted bezel, 32mm in diameter (35mm including crown). Screw-down gold crown signed with Rolex logo. Champagne coloured dial with tritium-tipped gold hour markers and the Tudor shield logo at 12. Gold baton minute and hour hands partially coated with tritium. Gold sweep second hand. Sapphire [or aryclic? Not sure about this - any views?] crystal with Cyclops, magnifying a quick-set date window at 3pm. Solid SS case back engraved ‘original oyster case by Rolex Geneva’ with logo.
