You hate threads on tudor watches so much that you started a thread on tudor watches?

[rcclarkie]

For the same reason they sell the peanut butter next to the jam, they just belong together!

Sure, start a separate Tudor forum. That won't stop people from cross posting lol. I really have seen everything!

[Stevec14]

I have owned both and enjoy reading about both. I enjoy reading and looking at others watches irrespective of the brand so I can’t say it bothers me too much.

I think it’s only a problem in a year such as this with no releases and then Tudor getting a few days worth of attention. It will blow over....

[Rags]

Leave things just the way they are. Tudor and Rolex belong together.

[Calatrava r]

Never having been a fan of the hands on the Tudors, I usually pass on the Tudor threads. Having them here is fine with me. I am sure they are fine watches.

[johnorpheus]

Gotta love people who get annoyed with content on an Internet forum they can avoid by, you know, just not clicking on it. Good luck with your new forum, buddy. I'm sure it will take off like a rocket.

Op dont be so grumpy

[1William]

The brands are different but the same. Interlinked history and I believe they should be together for a well rounded Forum.

[Etschell]

hans wilsdorf would be shaking his head.

I like the addition of Tudor watches to this forum. I've been hoping Tudor would re-release the Submariner. With a date window. I figure this is the place to get the news when that happens.

There is really only one thing you can say about a Tudor.......its not a Rolex

And thankfully the reverse is true as well, so that's two things you can say but not sure what the point is. Both brands were started by HW to compliment each other. Both are serviced under the worldwide RSC network.

Exactly

Riiight.. and the new Supra is not a BMW.

John Mayer had something in his worn and wound review of the black bay when he said Tudor is the Tyler Durden of Rolex.

It appears as if the OP is eager to enforce rule #1.

[abozz]

You cannot be bothered to enter a forum that is ROLEX AND TUDOR and get threads about Tudor in it. I do not understand!

I agree

Can assure its got nothing to do with money as being a Mod for over 15 years on this forum, I love all brands of mechanical watches which include Tudor and Rolex.Now if you want to start your own forum you are free to do so,and please give me your explanation why you think its about money.As speaking for myself the most satisfaction I get on forum is hopefully passing a bit of knowledge about the history of both brands Tudor and Rolex to members.And can assure I give up my time and my knowledge gained over the past 50 odd years of being around both brands Tudor and Rolex, which I get no monetary rewards whatsoever, only the satisfaction of passing a bit of knowledge and history of both brands..

Historically it is. On the ground today, it still is.
It's the same company, the same after-sales service. Rolex SA offers products under the Rolex and Tudor brands.

You get annoyed, I must say that many must not give a damn like you about 1946

Do Tudors have Rolex movements? If not they have very little DNA to a true Rolex

They were assembled until 1990 by Rolex watchmakers, the Tudor models were sold with cases and bracelets signed and marked "Rolex". Some also had Rolex calibers !
What better DNA do you want ?!

(Curious that you develop your logic on Daytona with Zenith movements next to that…)

Today it's still the same company, but Tudor has taken a little independence from the parent company and is making its calibers.
The after-sales service is still provided by Rolex.
You are not going to rewrite the story because you don't like it anyway !

Neither did the Rolex Daytona until 2000.

I can't understand why a watch enthusiast would want a separate forum. A social status enthusiast, on the other hand, would be the only instance where that would make sense.

I'm sure you scoff at Zenith Daytonas the same way, right?

Or is it just the coronet that concerns you? You'll be delighted to find that many older Tudors are stamped Rolex with coronets as well if that is your line of thinking.

Did the early chronographs and moonphase Rolex have a Rolex made movement inside case, no they had ones made by ETA.Did the Daytona like the 6263,16520 have a Rolex made movement in the case, no ones from ETA Valjoux and Zenith.

PS
I think you owe the members of this forum a apology,or better still please leave and start your own forum, perhaps you will be more happy then, and get no further Tudor annoyance .

That. One less whiner whom we do not need.

I am here to learn and enjoy the forum for the good stuff it presents. Sometimes that means ignoring certain issues.

I don’t know share it takes for you to consider it a “Rolex” movement but most of the new references have their movements designed, produced and assembled by the same people in the same factory with the same name on the building, Rolex.

they are sister companies owned by the same trust.

it is like saying your biological sister has very little dna in common with you.

[Benzsiam]

They are in the same family. When they mix together, I think it help Tudor to get more attention from people that never know about Tudor before.

[Boothroyd]

It's not changing, nor should it.
