The Manual Wind: Tudor Heritage Ranger

tudoranger2The term entry level no longer has a stigma attached to it.  Competition amongst watch brands has truly benefited the consumer, and you can thank Tudor.  Since the rerelease of the brand stateside, Tudor has turned classic designs of the 1960s and 1970s into the current watch-standard for the under five thousand price point.  Models such as the Heritage Chronograph and Black Bay are in high demand.  Their latest release, The Tudor Heritage Ranger, will surely not be far behind.  This remake of the 1967 Tudor Ranger pays homage to its forefather with added modern updates.
