  • Catalogue Essay

    - As sponsor of the legendary 24 Hours of Le Mans, Tudor fittingly draws racing spirit into the Grantour's strong, sporty design. This collection offers three refined yet functional takes on the racing chronograph - testaments to speed and endurance.

    - The Grantour Date houses Tudor's cal. 2824 with a 150m water resistance case. The black lacquered bezel features Porsche-style numeral markings. While this model is the most simplistic out of the three, the dial brims with racing details.

    - Subtly incorporating the spirit of the track, the present timepiece offered in virtually unworn condition melds performance and refinement for those driven by timeless style.

  • Artist Biography

    Tudor

    Swiss • 1926

    Almost twenty years after Rolex was founded, Hans Wilsdorf established Tudor with the intention of making more affordable watches without compromising the quality for which Rolex was renowned. Tudor was named after the British Dynasty that ruled England from 1485 to 1603, and their symbol came from the "War of Roses." After interchanging Rose and Shield symbols for a number of years, the firm replaced the Rose with the Shield logo from the 1960s until today.

    Some of the most recognized vintage models made by Tudor include the Submariner, a waterproof model first introduced in 1954, the Oysterdate, the earliest versions of which were nicknamed the "Monte-Carlo," the Heritage, which included the date at 6 o'clock, as well as the Pelagos, which translates to "deep sea" in Greek.
