Rolex-Tudor 38mm Noir Prince Jumbo SS Day-Date Ref. 7017/R 1970

Here is another gem for the collection. From the 1970s Rolex and Tudors, this reference 7017/R pulled apparent influence from its classic Rolex President counterpart. On the exterior, it’s virtually identical to the Rolex Day-Date reference 1802 that was introduced in 1958. Nevertheless, the Rolex - Tudor Prince 7017/Z is larger: 39mm in diameter compared to the Rolex’s 1802 36mm. The other obvious difference between the Rolex Tudor Day-Date and the Rolex President Day-Date is their weight. The Rolex Day-Dates are always in a precious metal while the Tudor was only offered in two tone or stainless steel.

This Rolex Tudor Day-Date is a rare and cool piece. It is functional due to the fact that it displays the day and the date, but the larger case size and stainless steel case make it a very versatile and functional timepiece. This would make a unique and functional daily driver that would be suitable in many settings casual to formal. The day-date function is a nice feature to have on a watch, and this particular model has a very stylish look to it. The large case size makes it a great choice for those who want a watch that is both stylish and functional.

Excellent vintage condition watch without dings or dents. No corrosion or pitting. Serial and reference numbers are fully intact and clearly visible. Thick and even lugs with defined edges.
