The Military Connection

Tudor maintained close relationships with several military organizations around the world, most notably the French Navy, the Marine Nationale (MN). It also had an extensive relationship with the Royal Canadian Navy (RCN) that spanned several decades. While collectors have uncovered a great deal over the years, much remains unknown.

One initiative aimed at uncovering additional information is the Tudor MN Database project, a collector-led effort focused on identifying serial ranges, patterns, and historical details of MN-issued Tudor watches, while highlighting information that may have been previously overlooked. Its purpose is to educate and inform the collector community through shared knowledge and collective findings. Collectors are invited to participate.

Here are several resources that help shed light on the subject.
