Tudor is a Swiss manufacturer based in Geneva, registered in 1926 at the request of Hans Wilsdorf, the founder of Rolex. Over time Tudor watches have become especially well known for its tool watches, and producing watches for professional divers and the military. In 2010, Tudor produced The Heritage Chrono inspired by the Tudor “Montecarlo” from the 1970’s.  This model became the first of the Tudor Heritage line to echo Tudor’s best known vintage models
