Just wow.

I saw this was up for auction a while ago. £66000! Tudor piggybacking on the Rolex bubble?

Wow and not a tudor I like that much. I have a few of them including a snowflake sub of a similar era (which I guess has quadrupled in value in the 8 years I’ve had it(.

Lovely .
Great choice and hats off to the Gent .
£ 300 in 1970 was a huge amount of money .

Purchased back by "Tudor" to gain huge advertising ? I thought most "record selling " watches are purchased by the manufactures ?. It makes their customers feel good about buying/investing .

Good call, huge sum of money for a watch. Tiny sum for marketing budget of a brand the size of Tudor.
