No sir and that's just fine. The eta calibers they use are fine machines in their own right

And likely never unless Tudor is spun off as an independent. No way would Rolex want to have its own subsidiary products cannibalize their flagship line.

Tudor has never used a Rolex movement that I am aware, they use ETA's. The fact is that Tudor and Rolex are two completely separate companies.

They use ETA movements which I learned are very good movements. Wouldn't stop me from getting one.

The models 826090P, 225033 and a few others used caliber T8050 which I believe is a caliber unique to Tudor.

Now on the cal 390 the rotor resemble was exactly the same as the one used in the Rolex calibre 1030. Today some mistakenly believe that the 390 was a in--house movement produced especially for Tudor before they started to use ETA. But the cal 390 was based on the calibre 350 Fleurier ébauche and not anything by Valjoux ETA.
