brief introduction

As the saying goes, "Keep your back against a big tree to enjoy the cool". Under the aura of Rolex, Tudor has many favorable resources since its birth. In terms of design, it has many similarities with the "big brother" Rolex, while maintaining its own unique side. It is also a two-color circle with red and blue colors. In the choice of fonts, Tudor used slender and rounded Arabic numerals. The look and feel is more concise and elegant. The shape of the outer ring is very similar to the early Rolex Ref. 1675, which satisfies some players who pursue retro design and realizes brand differentiation.

After reading the similarities, let's look at the difference between it and Rolex GMT, which is also the place to show the "precise knife method". First of all, Tudor GMT does not use "small window convex lens". This enlarged glass calendar window is a patented technology of Rolex in 1950s. For Rolex, it is not only functional, but also highly recognizable. Tudor, on the other hand, uses a slightly curved sapphire glass mirror, which is very common in acrylic watches in the last century. Originally designed to make the lens fit the case better, it gradually became a popular style of that era. Now the use of this style is more for the sake of beauty and creating a retro effect.
