Tudor
The Advisor ref. 7926 was introduced in 1957 and was produced until
1969, and it was Tudor’s first and only alarm watch. As a direct
response to the sought after models such as the Jaeger-LeCoultre
Memovox, the Advisor presented something unique and exciting to the
consumer.
Unlike its competitors, the Advisor counted on a pin
affixed to the inside of the case back, upon which a hammer struck,
striking the sound of the alarm. This particular example of the Advisor
has a silvered dial that exudes late-50s design on the wrist. The cal.
1475 movement is housed in a 36mm Oyster case — the same size as the
Rolex Datejust of the period, making it extremely stylish and wearable.
