AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Who needs a Daytona? This Tudor Prince Chronograph has all the features to rival the unattainable Rolex – a crisp lacquer dial with a panda configuration, the famous “Units Per Hour” bezel, and screw-down pushers. The best part? It costs a fraction of the price.
The steel bezel and screw-down pushers give it a rugged look. In addition, the case measures 40mm, which is perfect for any wrist. As the pictures show, it has some wear, but nothing serious.
I believe it’s post-2002 due to its condition and lack of Tiger inscription. It also comes fitted with a sapphire crystal and a thinner case, unlike its predecessor. This makes it a lot more wearable and a better everyday piece, in my opinion.
It’ll fit a 7-inch wrist with the links included. Check the Imgur album to see how it fits a 6.75-inch wrist, with one micro adjustment hole to spare. Fortunately, links aren’t hard to find, as these watches were produced from the 90s until 2007.
Condition: Very good with minor usage markings. Some wear on the clasp and caseback. See detailed photos for full condition and clarity.
Reference: 79280
Case Size: 40 mm
Crystal: Sapphire
Movement: Valjoux 7750. Service history is unknown, but it’s running strong.
- Watch only
- Fits a wrist up to 7 inches (17.7 cm).
