A charming Tudor Oyster date 'Big Rose' reference 7974 dating to the 1960s with a gorgeous ivory white dial and applied silver hour markers in an oyster style case with Rolex/Tudor signed screwdown crown.
The watch has been fully serviced and the movement is immaculate and showing very little wear. The later oyster bracelet is the correct style and has been paired to the watch. This piece could of come with either strap or bracelet.
The case is thick and doesn't look overly worn with a thickness around the lug holes.
The dial is 100% original and has a nice crosshair line dividing it in to a quadrent with the date window at 3 and original cyclops plexi.
A niche piece in the Tudor market and getting harder to come by as other Tudor sports watches rise in value, these will follow suit.
