Tudor Watches Relaunches In The UK

Watch Brand Returns Following Hiatus

Tudor, the Swiss watch brand that shares its founder with Rolex, has announced plans to relaunch in the UK after more than a decade away from the market. The soon-to-launch collection features a number of unisex models that focus on the brand’s 88-year history. Key designs include the Ranger, Black Bay and Chrono Blue. Select watches in the Heritage line are supplied with two bracelets or straps: an adjustable fabric strap and a second in either aged-leather or satin-finished steel. These will sit alongside the Pelagos diving watch, developed in partnership with professional divers, a 1970s-inspired Montecarlo chronograph and performance-based Fastrider Black Shield. Tudor was originally founded in 1926 by watchmaker Hans Wilsdorf whom found success with the world famous Rolex. Price points for the affordable counterpart sit between £1,000 – £4,000, as much at 75 per cent less than those produced by its sibling company. Bosses claim to have already signed up a network of over 100 official Tudor retailers to sell the range, including Harrods, Ernest Jones and Goldsmiths, when it launches in the UK on 19th September.
