The first watches had a simple TUDOR signature on their dials, with the upper line of the letter "T" extended above the other letters. Rarely, the Rolex name was also used in some pieces. Until the brand gained autonomy in its field, Rolex would effectively ensure the technical and aesthetic quality of TUDOR watches. Watches signed by TUDOR included models for both men and women. Models often had rectangular, cylindrical or chamfered edges. The distribution rights for TUDOR watches, which were allocated to the Australian market, were given in 1932 to Willis, who was tasked with distributing the watches to the best jewelers in the country.

The chrome-plated rectangular clock with beveled edges shown here demonstrates the kind of product TUDOR created in its early years. This watch features a two-tone, two-section cream-coloured dial with luminous Arabic numerals, baton hour and minute hands made of luminous material and blued steel, a minute counter and a small seconds hand located at the 6 o'clock position. Its cylindrical caliber was distinguished by three red rubies on its top plate. Founded in Melbourne in 1874, Catanach's Jewelers is one of Australia's oldest jeweler families.
