Hi All,
I'm going to regret this.
Very, pristine condition Tudor Oysterdate Chronograph, Reverse Panda dial. This is a rare transition model, 79260, Oysterdate (NOT Prince Date) with the case by Rolex and a Rolex Crown.
These have the newer style case similar to the 116520 Daytona of the day. It wears much nicer and more comfortably than the previous Big Block. The Tritium Oysterdate dial appears to be a carryover from the previous generation 79160. There's also a strong familial resemblance to the previous generation Daytona 6263. There's a reason they call these the "poor man's" Daytona.
It has an improved version of Tudor's Valjoux 7750 movement with the "Special Tudor" rotor engraved and gilded.
The Tudor 78400 with 605 end links Oyster Bracelet is as pristine as the watch itself.
Running flawlessly, I've worn this in two week rotations and it doesn't gain or lose time.
The B775xxx serial number dates this to 1995/96.
No box or papers.
$5750
No trades please.
