The primary difference between the two, is that generally the Tudor has a movement made by one of the big congolomerates like ETA rather than a Rolex made movement.

I'm not sure what kind of Rolex you'd get in the $500-600 range other than a very small 1940s one, like a sky rocket or somethings in tha boy's size. On the other hand, you should be able to find a nice full size Tudor.

Hi! I'm trying to find any info available on Rima watches. I was recently given a watch that was my grandmother's. The only info that I have is that it is rose gold with diamonds and rubies. I would like to find some history on it. Any info would be appreciated.
