Amongst the huge number of pieces released into the lineup, 36 at the last count, the brand offers a choice of black, opaline or silver faces, either polished or with a machine-stamped \u2018waffle\u2019 pattern taken straight from their earliest days. Coupled with the subtle doming effect and matched with stylish sword hands, and the 1926s have a real vintage nostalgia to them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The range comes with Arabic numerals and the option of arrow-shaped indexes or diamond accents on the odd-numbers. All the watches in the series have a beautiful balance and remain highly legible due to strongly contrasting dial elements, particularly the opaline dials with their blue hands and hour markers. Even the date window at three o\u2019clock doesn\u2019t throw out the symmetry, thanks to the lack of Cyclops on its sapphire crystal.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20578\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20578\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20578 size-full\" title=\"The Tudor 1926 comes in two other iterations.\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749.jpg\" alt=\"Tudor 1926\" width=\"1200\" height=\"1203\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749-250x250.jpg 250w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749-768x770.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749-1021x1024.jpg 1021w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749-140x140.jpg 140w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113749-379x380.jpg 379w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20578\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">The Tudor 1926 is a dress watch and can be worn on any occasion.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>The Range on the Tudor 1926<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Underlining <a href=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/rolex-info\/unisex-president-rolex-day-date-36.html\">its true unisex appeal<\/a>, the Tudor 1926 comes in four sizes; 28mm, 36mm, 39mm, and 41mm, so there is one to suit just about every wrist. The cases themselves, available in all steel or in two-tone steel and rose gold, have the sweeping lines and gently curved lugs of past generation Rolex, before the latest iterations bulked up and got themselves those broad shoulders. And, as befits a dress watch, none of the range has crown guards.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Securing the watch is a Jubilee-style bracelet made up of seven links of varying sizes. A combination of polished inner and satin-brushed outer links, it closely bonds to the shape of the wearer\u2019s wrist and comes in various styles to match the makeup of watch itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_20577\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-20577\" style=\"width: 1200px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-20577 size-full\" title=\"Do you like the Tudor 1926?\" src=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113629.jpg\" alt=\"Tudor 1926\" width=\"1200\" height=\"883\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113629.jpg 1200w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113629-300x221.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113629-768x565.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113629-1024x753.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.bobswatches.com\/rolex-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/IMG_20180322_113629-516x380.jpg 516w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1200px) 100vw, 1200px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-20577\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">What are your thoughts on the Tudor 1926? Comment below.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2><strong>The Movements<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When Tudor was first formed, it was created to be the more utilitarian, lower cost alternative to the extreme luxury of its parent company. The most important difference between the two, and the reason Tudor was able to keep its prices down, was their use of third-party movements, specifically from Swiss \u00e9bauche manufacturer ETA.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In very recent times, Tudor have made the move into producing their own calibers, significantly closing the gap between themselves and Rolex. <\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">For the 1926 line however, they have reverted back to using ETA movements once again\u2014which is either good news or bad depending on your views on in-house versus ancillary mechanisms. One thing it is most definitely good news for is the bank balance, and this latest family represents a new entry-level point into <a href=\"https:\/\/www.tudorwatch.com\/watches\/new-1926\">the world of Tudor<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The movement in the three larger sizes of the 1926 is the ETA 2824, an absolute workhorse of a caliber which has been providing perfectly robust and reliable service for a wide range of watchmakers since 1982. Running at the brand standard 28,800bph and with a 38-hour power reserve, it is as tough and accurate as a daily beater\u2019s engine needs to be. For the 28mm model, the similarly spec\u2019d but far smaller ETA 2671 ticks away inside. Both are automatic, bi-directional winding movements with a hacking function.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><strong>Overall<\/strong><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">With such a comprehensive set of styles to choose from, there is a Tudor 1926 that will appeal to most tastes. The 28mm two-tone, silver dial piece with diamond indexes is sophisticated enough for any company, while at the other end of the spectrum, the 39mm, all steel, black dial example has the look of a watch that could take some serious punishment, and bears more than a passing resemblance to the latest Explorer, but at a fraction of the cost.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Tudor brand has quietly been going from strength to strength recently, with ever more enthusiasts discovering both its current range as well as the highly collectible models on the vintage market. The quality of their output continues to impress and makes an increasingly viable alternative to you-know-who.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>It\u2019s fair to say Tudor seem to be enjoying themselves at this year\u2019s Baselworld.
