Rolex Tudor Ranger Oyster Prince Watch, AutomaticIn fantastic conditionFunctions exactly as it should and tells perfect time Watch will come in a watch box, but unfortunately not the original one. Please also note the strap is a modern custom made distressed look strap, looks great on the watch. 100% genuine leather I bought this watch just under a year ago but have decided to sell it as I have only worn it a handful of times + need money to go towards a carReally great looking watch and the patina/colour of the dial looks fantastic. Really attractive 1960's watch.With vintage watches, especially ones of this age, it is never a good idea to wear them in the water. Under my ownership this watch has never been worn in water The case is the original Rolex Oyster caseThe case back is also the original oneThe screw down crown is original The glass was replaced with brand new acrylic crystal under a year ago, just before I purchased it. Still looks new!The Tudor dial was sympathetically re-finished before I purchased itThe hands were replaced with new ones just before I purchased itA brand new Tudor 2824 movement with Tudor Rotor was fitted to the watch just before I purchased it, thus it keeps great time and is more reliable than an old movement. This is the same movement that's in the most recent model of Tudor Ranger watchSad to see this watch go as it is such a great looking and iconic watch. The Tudor equivalent in the 60's of the Rolex Explorer watches, looks even better than the equivalent explorer model in my opinionI suspect this will be a good future investment + these are already very hard to find I believePlease note I am not a watch expert, just an enthusiast. I have tried to give you all the information I was given before I purchased it myself Please do let me know if you have any questionsI can say with complete honesty that the pictures do not do this watch justice, looks so much better in the flesh. Not sure why but photos seem slightly blurredUK bidders only  Please see my other items, I'm selling off a few pieces from my collection Good luck!
