Presenting the

Tudor Oyster Prince

For the man whose purse is modest. yet whose aspirations are high. Rolex of Geneva have specially com missioned the Tudor Oyster Prince. In many respects, the amazing Tudor Oyster Prince matches the most expensive wristwatcher. For Rolex of Geneva have endowed this watch with the famous Oyster water- proof case und the mathbfe "rotor" self-winding mechanism

Thus we have a Fagnificent watch, thoroughly waterproofed. automatically wound, yet prices at a moderate level.

Rolex of Geneva have slymitted the Tudor Oyster Prince to the most rigorous tests ever devised for a self- winding wrist-watch. So impressive were the results of these tests, that it has been decided to make them the subject of a workd-wide advertising campaign. The first advertisement in this series is reproduced below.

For those of your customers who look longingly at a Rolex Perpetual, but lack the means to buy one, show them the Tudor Oyster Prince. In its field, this is undoubtedly the finest watch Swiss skill and experience have ever produced. It is retalled to the public, as illustrated.

TUDOR Oyster Prince

The Tudor Oyster Prince, sponON ed by Rolex of Genera. Water proofed by the fumour Oyster cose, self-wound by the unique "rator" mechanism, the Tudor Oyster Prince is the most out-

standing wrist-watch for its price ever offered to the public.

This advertisement, the first of the new series, features the "Trial of Destruction." Six Tudor Oyster Princes were worn, one after the other, by a workman who spent a total of 30 hours operating a pneumatic drill.
