Hello:
New member from BA - AR. I'd like to add my information to this thread. Tudor Prince Oysterdate Model 7966/0 Serial nº 58163XX ETA2484 Caliber Date numbers in alternating black/red Bracelet 78350/19 with 557 endlinks Apparently manufactured in 1966 or 1967, there are no manufacture date markings inside. It was purchased 12/1971 in Bridgetown, Barbados when I lived there. It was a present from Dad after finishing 5th. form at Harrison College. Original bracelet, endlinks and dial were replaced during service in BA around 1976. Original dial had a black background with the Tudor shield, no numbers. It's had some heavy use and the hack feature stopped working long ago so I decided to send it in for a complete service ($$$ !) as apparently the last time was in 1995. Cheers. JHM |

Firstly thank you for the serial number database, it proved invaluable for dating a Tudor Oyster that has been knocking around in a drawer. But I have a suggestion. For the database would it be possible to put the dates of landmarks in differences?
I've done extensive searches on images and found that in 1959 case numbers were on the case back and the 1960 Oyster case I have is marked between the lugs, in 1961 there are many examples of "between the lugs" numbering. So to me as a total amateur, it appears that between 1959-1960 Rolex changed stamping model/ serial numbers to between the lugs and I wondered if there was a date on this. |

Tudor 79260
Oysterdate Chrono Serial B858xxx Papers dated July 2000, so it must've sat for a while. Has Oysterdate dial, Rolex signed crown and Rolex signed caseback so probably 1997. ![]() |

Contemporary Tudor Serials
Just joined the forum - frstly what a wonderful place - stakes of knowledge and lots of humor - great to read and now join in.
I see that we have a comprehensive list of serials for pre-millennium but not much for present day. I'm keen to understand what's been going on in the last 10 years or so. I see mention of H, J and O but what next? Any help would be most grateful. Many thanks Iain |

I just bought a brand new Tudor Prince Date+Day from an AD In Hong Kong, all modern boxes/cards, etc. I understand that there’s no accurate way to date a Tudor beyond 2002 because of their use of random serial numbers, but I just want to share my serial number:
I1834** It was purchased brand new in March 2021. Who knows how long this watch has been sitting around before I bought it, and I wonder if Tudor had stopped producing this watch a while ago but are still officially selling (in Hong Kong) the leftover inventory of these beautiful gems. ![]() ![]() Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

Anyone buying Tudors and wanting to know correct serial numbers and some rinky dinks around the numbering, this thread is very good, worth bookmarking....OP Bagel did some good basic sleuth work. I just used it to check something and it was correct/v useful.
