The Tudor ref. 7032/0 is the ultimate Tudor chronograph, more rare and special than any Monte Carlo chronograph.

"Home plate" - so named because of those the oddly-shaped hour markers - the home plate on a base ball field.

The ref. 7032's case is 40mm and has a pretty unusual and avant garde case design - just look at those large, protruding crown guards.

The 7032/0 replaced the 7031/0 - the only real difference between the 2 is the 7032/had a satin-finished steel bezel with a 500-unit graduated engraved tachymetric scale whilst the 7031/0 had a black Bakelite bezel.

There were 2 variations of the ref. 7032/0, the version with a grey dial and black registers - as this one, and a much rarer version with a black dial and grey registers.

Like the genuine item, this build uses a manually-wound mechanical Valjoux 7734 movement with a power reserve of over 45 hours.

With the mediocre parts you had to work with,

You have my deepest respect.
I can't wait to wear this beauty!
