## Caption

Home run : in 1971, Tudor launched references 7031 and 7031, more affectionately known as the ‘Home plate’, thanks to the luminous hour markers resembling the home plate of a baseball field. Produced for only two years, most of the pieces were produced with a grey dial and black registers. This example of the Monte Carlo reference 7031, with black dial and grey registers, is much rarer – and we’re especially excited to offer it complete with its original box, which perfectly captures the spirit of the early 70s. Going to auction on 14 November in #Geneva, with an estimate of CHF 40,000 – 60,000 #sothebyswatches #sothebysgeneva tudorwatch #tudor #vintagetudor #7031 #tudormontecarlo #tudor7031 #tudorhomeplate #tudorwatch #seventies #1970svintage #1970s #70sdesign #baseball
