Introduced during the 1990s, these chronographs combined Rolex Oyster construction with a reliable automatic chronograph movement, creating one of the best values in vintage sports watches.\u003cspan aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"PDq2pG_selectionAnchor\"\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"352\" data-end=\"785\"\u003eReference 79280 is particularly well known for its association with Tiger Woods, whose sponsorship with Tudor earned these watches the collector nickname \"Tiger Chronograph.\" While several dial configurations were produced, the reverse panda remains one of the most desirable. The black dial contrasted against bright silver registers delivers outstanding legibility while giving the watch a distinctly motorsport-inspired aesthetic.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"787\" data-end=\"1067\"\u003eThe fixed tachymeter bezel further reinforces its sporting purpose. Unlike many examples that have seen heavy polishing over the years, sharp case geometry dramatically changes the appearance of these references, allowing the muscular Oyster case to retain its original character.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"1069\" data-end=\"1300\"\u003eAs Tudor's popularity has grown, the Tiger Chronograph has steadily moved from overlooked bargain to highly respected collector's piece.
