Interesting watch and similar in design to early 30's Rolex men's watches.. Tudor was used along with many other names on the dials by Rolex.. It was common then for vendors and Dealers to have their name on the dial as well.

Try on our Reference Library. We have a base of Tudor sites to visit and research this early time-piece..

Maybe send the pics to Bob Ridley - See if he could restore it. That might be interesting...

+1 for Bob
Great guy, great works and loves his work.

He is working on my 1675 right now and I can't wait to get it back!

It looks one of the first Tudors from the mid late 1940s with the tail on the T in Tudor.But not seen that model before, some had the Rolex Watch Company around the sub seconds.The X677 most properly watchmaker service marks quite common in those days for watchmakers to scratch his mark on inside of case back

Normal case version.
