                       Tudor's focus is really to communicate our heritage. We are a new brand back in the United States since September of last year, but we have a history starting in 1926. We're part of the Rolex family, and we're proud to be able to align ourselves with such important historical collections, like Bruce's collection of amazing automobiles.
