TudorThe Tudor Oyster Prince Date+Day, reference 7020/0, is a stainless steel wristwatch characterized by its 39mm "Jumbo" case size. Produced during a brief period between the late 1960s and early 1970s, this model features an Oyster case manufactured by Rolex, equipped with a rotating Turn-O-Graph steel bezel.
The watch displays a blue sunburst dial with applied hour indices, a day-of-the-week aperture at the 12 o'clock position, and a date display with a cyclops lens at 3 o'clock. Power is provided by an automatic mechanical movement based on an ETA caliber, a choice noted for reducing the overall thickness of the case. The watch is presented on a leather strap. The auction description reports the piece is in a clean condition, with the case maintaining its original geometric edges and the bezel in a well-preserved state.

Due to this short production run and limited output, the model is considered relatively uncommon in collector markets.
