Rolex founder Hans Wilsdorf founded Tudor as one of the daughter companies of the big crown. He acquired the brand in 1926.
Tudor was meant to be able to offer a cheaper watch, but with the same high quality as its big brother. In many cases, only the wording on the dial and the movements that Tudor used were different to those from Rolex. Some collections were really similar, such as the Submariner.
People tend to look at Tudor Submariners as the underdogs, the poor man’s Rolex Submariner watch. However, this is far from the truth. Tudor was, and still is, a very interesting brand to collectors of both new and vintage watches.
The 76100 Lollipop Tudor Submariner is known by this name due to an hour hand that lacks the traditional Rolex “Mercedes” hand. The movement is a 25-jewel, hacking ETA 2776 modified by Tudor. This piece dates to roughly 1984 and features a round and triangular combination of hour markers. This watch also features a Rolex trip-lock crown.
These were only produced for 3 or 4 years in the 80s, so needless to say, that this very rare watch, would be a fine addition to any watch collection!
