Tudor watches are made by Rolex. The major difference between a Tudor and a Rolex is that Rolex contracted the manufacturing of the movement out to a 3rd party manufacturer (ETA in 90% of them). The 3rd party movement was made to Rolex's specifications and signed Tudor. This movement was then sent to Rolex where it was assembled into a watch with Rolex made remaining parts (Rolex case, bezel, band, crystal and crown, seals, etc.). The Tudor movements are high grade 17, 21 or 25 jewel movements which when correctly cleaned and oiled will keep time nearly as well as any full blown Rolex.
Rolex produces most of their popular watches in both a Rolex and a Tudor branded model. The President, Datejust, Submariner, Oyster, Oysterdate, and more all come in both brands. The Tudor Tiger chronograph was endorsed by Tiger Woods.
