INSIDE TUDOR
THE BRAND IS BORN
The trademark “The TUDOR” was registered for Rolex founder Hans Wilsdorf by renowned watchmaker and merchant “Veuve de Philippe Hüther” in Geneva in February 1926. Wilsdorf purchased the brand from the house in 1936. Hans Wilsdorf believed that the time had arrived to expand the company and give it its own individuality shortly after WWII. On March 6, 1946, he established “Montres TUDOR S.A.” We specialize models that are unique to both men and women. Rolex ushered leadership of the technical, esthetic, and functional qualities of these timepieces, as well as distribution and after-sales servicing.

hans wilsdorf’s intuition
“For some years now, I have been considering the idea of making a watch that our agents could sell at a more modest price than our Rolex watches, and yet one that would attain the standard of dependability for which Rolex is famous. I decided to form a separate company, with the object of making and marketing this new watch. It is called the TUDOR watch company.”
- H. Wilsdorf
