I just want to thank the TRF members who recently posted up so many wonderful information about the Tudor Chronographs. I was so intrigued that I immediately went out to search for my 1st Tudor Chrono. UPS has just delivered my Tudor Tiger 79260. It's a white face black dials, black bezel, on SS bracelet that is in like new condition with all the paper work & box. I am absolutely in awed on how beautiful it is in person, and what a bargain for such quality. I have been an avid collector of Zenith Daytonas, and have a nice collection of them. Putting the Zenith Daytona & the Tudor Chrono side by side, they definitely look like they are from the same blood line. Now that I found the Tudor secret, I am out to search for my future 79160 Big block. Thank you again TRF members for creating for me this new excitement. Will post pictures as soon as I get a chance.

Good for you! As a Daytona owner it speaks volumes about the quality of Tudor that you value both brands.
Can't wait to see the pics. And best of luck on your Big Block search.

I had tudors years ago and sold and traded them for buttons!, how silly!, I have my first Tudor Chrono now and it stacks up easily with any of my Rolex models, superb quality and a whole lot of watch for the money. Possibly a second one on the way!

When you actually see one in person you realize the incredible build quality and value these Tudors offer.
Glad we could be of service by steering you in the right direction !

Fabulous! The tudor fits right in. Very nice collection of daytonas.

I'm also hoping to add a few more tudors to my collection. Soon a sub will be 10grand and my local AD still has a few Hydronaughts and Chronos at around 2k bnib.

God bless

That Tiger Chrono looks really wonderful, panda dial and black bezel are always a winning combination!

I fell in the with the Zenith Daytonas years ago when I saw Rolex 24 Hour Daytona advertisements with Hurley Haywood & his Porsche. Unfortunately, the 16520s are not my only love. I am currently cheating on them with my 16610LVs. Love those green Annniversary Subs!!!!

Bill,

What a beautiful line up. This makes it obvious how unique the Tudor is.

At least in your very nice collection.

Best,
