The Tudor chronos are out there. I see a late model BNIB for sale every now and then. Most that you see are used and usually in very good condition. I have a Tiger 79280 and its a great watch. Prices are usually in the $200 to $2800 range. I'd expect to pay $2500 for a nice, complete Tiger.

Dan, that is an interesting watch. Guess I've never paid attention, but really like the 79170 Tudor "Big Block". A different look, with what I assume is a rotating bezel. Thanks!

They are fantastic quality watches. The primary difference lies in the movements, which are typically sourced from ETA or ETA-Valjoux on modern models after about the 1960s. I think the steel grades can be different but don't quote me on that.

Dan,
That 79170 is awesome with the black face. Need to get me one of those as my next watch. |
