Condition Report
The case has been left completely unpolished, showing honest signs of age while retaining excellent shape and originality. The silver/white dial displays a beautifully even natural patina, giving the watch a warm and attractive vintage appearance. Hands and hour pips have aged consistently to a creamy tone, adding to the overall harmony of the dial. The acrylic crystal shows only light marks commensurate with age and remains clean and presentable. Overall, this is a very well‑preserved 1950s Tudor Prince, further elevated by the inclusion of its rare original box.
Working Order
The manual wind movement was fully serviced in our workshop on 1 March 2026. It is running very well and is covered by our 12‑month mechanical guarantee. As expected with a vintage watch of this era, it should not be considered waterproof.
