The Reference 7020\/0 Tudor Date+Day, of course!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eWhile Rolex never produced a full size steel Day-Date under their own branding, they did produce a short run of Date+Day models for Tudor, which is what we have for you here. It is one of the coolest, rarest, and most functional pieces ever produced under the Rolex umbrella, and one we continually scour the market for, turning up only a handful of other examples in the past several years.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThis particular example possesses a strong case a beautiful matte grey dial with light even patina, as well as a Spanish date wheel, which only adds to its allure!\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eThe Story\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003eThe Rolex Day-Date is in many ways the perfect dress watch. It’s undeniably beautiful, but sturdy enough to wear every day, and versatile enough to be worn on a bracelet or a strap (with Rolex buckle, naturally). For the longest time it was Rolex’s only complicated wristwatch in continuous production (until the launch of the Daytona in the 1960s); the Day-Date is the Crown’s crown jewel.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eBut for those of us who prefer something sportier, a touch larger, and in steel, but with the same look and feel as the Day-Date… we’re sorry to say that it doesn’t exist—or, at least, Rolex doesn’t make it.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eFortunately for us, Tudor did.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eThe Reference 7020\/0 Tudor Oyster Prince Date+Day was only made for a few years between the late '60s and early '70s. With a very small production run, examples turn up infrequently on the market.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eWhen it comes to characteristics, there's nothing \u003ci\u003enot\u003c\/i\u003e to love about this watch. The steel Oyster Case—as large as a Submariner, at 39mm—gives it a distinctly masculine feel. The day wheel at 12:00 ensures this won't be confused with a Datejust or Prince Oysterdate, while the addition of a steel rotating \"Turn-O-Graph\"-style bezel provides an unmistakable sport element.  \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p2\"\u003eOn paper, the Reference 7020\/0 has all of our favorite things, but on the wrist, it’s even better. Though the case proportions are on the larger size for the era, it’s not as bulky as its Rolex-branded counterparts. The ETA movement ensures that the watch wears considerably thinner, making it ideal for daily use and wear.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Tudor","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":12671621955671,"sku":null,"price":2900.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0809\/1255\/products\/Tudor_Oyster_Price_Date_and_Day_Jumbo_AS02815__5.jpg?v=1538498160","url":"https:\/\/www.analogshift.com\/products\/tudor-oyster-prince-date-day-as02815","provider":"Analog:Shift","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
