Which contemporary logo do you prefer? Crown or Shield???
pretty simple Q.
I actually like the modern Tudor shield over the modern Rolex crown. The rose never did anything for me. |

The Coronet is timeless, iconic and steadfast.
Tudor’s diluted the rose icon. The rose could have been on the shield to at least keep faith with a heritage. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Pro

The Rose and the Shield were both there originally (mid 1940s) so both have equal claim to heritage

I like the rose. Crown is a little cheesy and shield feels too militaristic.

That first logo is from the 1930s when Tudor was still a line of watches rather than a separate company. I had one a while back but sold it.
