Later, in 1936, the house transferred the brand to Wilsdorf. Just after Second World War, Hans Wilsdorf knew that the time had come to expand and give the brand a proper identity of its own. On 6 march 1946, he created “Montres TUDOR S.A.”, specialising in models for both men and women/ Rolex would quarantee the technical, aesthetic and functional characteristics, along with the distribution and after-sales services.
TUDOR HISTORY
HANS WILSDORF’S INTUITION
“For some years now, I have been considering the idea of making a watch that our agents could tell at a more modest price than our Roles Watches, and yet one that would attain the standard of dependability for which Rolex is famous. I decided to form a separate company, with the object of making and marketing this new watch. It is called the TUDOR watch company.”
– H.Wilsdorf
