Vintage Tudor Prince
Here's my new-to-me vintage Tudor Prince ref. 7950. At 34 mm in diameter with a 19 mm lug width it's one of the smallest watches I currently own. But oh so comfortable after wearing 44 mm or 47 mm watches.
This is the first Rolex or Tudor watch I've owned that has a honeycomb dial. How they got the micro-printing on these dials back in the day is a marvel. This particular watch is dated III 57 on the inside of the case back or 3rd Quarter of 1957.

It's in great condition for a 55 year-old watch! The crown and crystal look to be modern Rolex factory replacements but the gilt dial with Rose logo, gilt hands, middle case, caseback, and of course the gilt Fleurier 390 movement are all vintage.

As a bonus, the watch came with its vintage box which amazingly sports a honeycomb motif just like the dial! Very cool. I'm loving this stealth vintage Tudor a lot.
