I have already presented the early Tudor chronographs in a previous review of my Monte Carlo ref. 7159: Recently, I have been lucky enough to replace my Monte Carlo by a one-owner Tudor Porsche chronograph ref. 7032 and I am proud to present you this wat...  

Joke apart, these Tudor Chronos are very sensual, the 7159 or this one. Sensual and powerful. It is funny to see how they became Cult Chronographs. Thanks for the nice post, Jeff. Best, Nicolas

it works ;-) ...  

Yes, it works! Best, Nicolas

Fascinating detail Jeff.....congratulations on the watch. I have to say, as you know, I have owned a 7031 Homeplate in the past... but alas let it get about a year ago. ...  

....and a beautiful example in any case. Thanks for the kind words.

I find the look is cleaner, while Purists may well prefer the bakelite bezel... Strange! Best, Nicolas

...somehow kills the black outside minute track of the dial.

as it is correct for the 7032. Now if it were a 7031 then the bakelite would work. Either way for me the 7032 w/ SS is tops!! Cheers,

The Fans prefer it with the bakelite insert, like it is the case with the Vintage Daytos. Still, I prefer, on the Tudor Chronos or on the Vintage Daytos, the stainless steel bezel. Aren't we stubborn? ;) Best, Nicolas

A Big Congratulations on your Tudor Porsche, it is in fantastic condition. Wear in in Health and Enjoy it :-) S

what a great review! Your Tudors are always fantastic. I love my Heritage Porsche.... Love the NATO options too! Ross :) ...  

... photographic reporta absolutely awesome. Pictures so clear and balanced it is a delight to view! Thank you! Best cordial regards, Abel.

I never realized that Porsche had such a long history with Tudor. Thank you for the nice photos Dr. Strong!

All I can say is that you have great example with provenance. You cannot ask for more. Bill ...  

...they have a great look and great finish ...  

I have a few cool ones from the 50s-70s. This one that I was following on eBay surprised me with its final price - didn't end up with me and not in that great condition!! I know Mike Wood's original owner Homeplate came in one of these... Ross :) ...  

but they sell for insane prices. If you are lucky to have one great but the price is super high. But as you know us loonies do chase them down but not for the soft at heart chase. I would love to have an original owner confirmation as to where they sold w... 

That is a lucky bidder. I hope it was you or a fellow collector not a dealer/flipper. Bill

To me this box seems to be the what most original owners tend to have but also it is interesting to know where it was bought to learn more about the box. Best Bill

This Monte Carlo is truly one of the most beautiful one could dream of, condition is awesome from any part and angle as show your beautiful photos. Considering this one comes in the most legendary and scarce "homeplate" execution, it is a true collector d...  

Love that cool orange box and cigarette card---they are so rare to see!! Cheers,

....you have a point concerning the "matching" box. The same "rule" applies to the papers.

The time was different, and the collectors wishes too... Best, Nicolas

Ken enlightened me as to the nickname of this watch. I had never heard Porsche before for the 7032. Here's mine ...  

Thankyou very much
