Vintage Tudor Oyster "Small Rose" (1950s)

Vintage Tudor Oyster “Small Rose” Ref. 7934

The Tudor Oyster Ref. 7934 offers a charming glimpse into the brand's early history, distinguished by the coveted “Small Rose” emblem used on Tudor dials during this period. Less commonly encountered than later Tudor models, these early Oysters offer enthusiasts an accessible entry point into genuine vintage watch collecting with strong period character.

This vintage Tudor Oyster Ref. 7934 features a 34mm gold-plated case with a black dial, gold-plated baton hour markers and the distinctive Tudor rose signature at 12 o'clock. A plexiglass crystal and black leather strap complement its understated 1950s aesthetic, while the compact proportions remain elegant and highly wearable today.

Powering the watch is the Tudor calibre 1156 manual-winding movement, reflecting the straightforward mechanical construction of Tudor's early wristwatches. Offered with box. Circa 1950. An appealing starter piece for the emerging vintage collector, particularly for those seeking an early Tudor configuration not commonly seen on the market. As with all vintage timepieces, we do not recommend wearing this watch in or around water, regardless of its original water resistance rating. Covered by our 24 month J. Farren Price warranty.
