In 1995 Tudor launched the new Prince chronograph.

Up until this point the cases of the Tudor chronos had been quite deep and flat sided – a true ‘presence’ on the wrist.

The fourth series witnessed a complete redesign of the case.

Gone were the flat sides and sharp edges and instead a softer case was utilized that was very similar to its stable mate the Rolex Daytona.

This new sleek aesthetic was further enhanced by the introduction of a sapphire crystal, which accentuated the lower profile of the watch on the wrist.

The previous plastic bezels were problematic in that they were delicate and could crack quite easily.

In the new series of watches the 79260 had an aluminum tachymeter insert in the bezel.
