No, never! Rolex and Tudor, although have the same owner and have very similar design, are entirely different watches. Rolex watches are made with Rolex movements, Tudors are made with ETA movements (the same movement as in Omega). No Tudor watch ever had "Rolex" on the dial. It was very popular not so long ago to purchase Tudor watch and refinish it to say "Rolex" or "Rolex - Tudor". But all these modifications are done by unauthorized specialists, such as myself. w-precision
There are a number of signs that a Rolex might be fake. If the price is very cheap then it is likely to be fake. One can also look for the magnification of the date on the watch which is 2.5 x on a real Rolex and often only 1.5 x on a fake Rolex. One can also tell by dipping the watch in water as all Rolex watches are water tight. If there is any leak inside the watch it is fake.

The Rolex Sea Dweller, Rolex Sea Dweller Deep Sea, and Submariner, are all Rolex models that are extremely water resistent. These are frequently used by divers. Also the Rolex Oyster Perpetual Cosmograph daytona is water resistent up to 100 meters.
The Rolex Submariner is one of Rolex's iconic models. It is advertised within their category of 'extraordinary' watches. Advertising for the Submariner is carried mainly in appropriately targeted magazines across the world. A product showcase is featured on the Rolex website, too.
Rolex watches are available through a variety of venues. One can buy them from Rolex's website directly. Jewelery stores usually carry a stock of expensive watches. Online shopping sites such as Amazon will also have Rolex's available.

There is really no way to determine the value of a Rolex without seeing it, opening the case, reviewing the serial number (either numerical, Roman Numeral plus two digit year, or a letter preceeding a number). Also, what type of Rolex model is the watch? I will tell you that when I was in a jewelry store in London the owner admired my 1950's vintage Rolex and offered to swap me for any Rolex in his display case (except the President model). Most of the President models retail for around $16,000 up to about $32K.
