The Tudor Oysterdate is the younger sibling to the Rolex Datejust model. Present on the dial of this watch is the Philippines Airlines logo, which is both interesting and incredibly rare to find on any watch. Upon first glance, this watch looks like your standard Tudor Prince Oysterdate but it isnÕt. The dial on this watch bears a special Philippines Airlines logo. It wasn Õt uncommon for Rolex and Tudor to add the logo of a specific company (you may be familiar with the Dominos Pizza Rolex). Often this implied that the watch was a gift to someone at that particular company. Was this watch gifted to a pilot? We aren Õt sure, but we do know that this watch is special (and looks great!).

Any reference to condition in a condition report will not include a full description of condition, and for example, may not specify all faults, alteration, adaptation, mechanical replacements or imperfections to the movement, case, or dial. Colors and shades may look different online or in printed materials than they look on physical inspection, and images may not clearly show the condition of a lot. Prospective buyers should inspect each lot in person and make their own evaluation of the lot. They must understand that any statement made by Fortuna Auction LLC ("Fortuna") is merely a subjective, qualified statement and does not constitute a representation, warranty, or assumption of liability by Fortuna. All dimensions in catalog descriptions are approximate. No warranties are made that watches in water-resistant cases are currently water-resistant. Fortuna does not guarantee the authenticity of any individual component parts, such as wheels, hands, crowns, crystals, screws, bracelets or leather bands, since subsequent repairs and restoration work may have resulted in the replacement of original parts.



Pre-owned watches, unless still in original packaging or never worn, will likely have some degree of wear and scratches. This should be expected for many of the watches offered in auction. Even if a watch is running and keeping time, bidders and buyers should expect that all movements will require maintenance. Fortuna recommends that all successful buyers promptly take their watches to a professional watchmaker for evaluation.



Prospective buyers should also refer to any notices as well as the Conditions of Sale in Fortuna's print catalogs and made available on its website, digital bidding platform, and other third-party digital bidding platforms.
