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
A true Rolex branded watch will not have a Tudor movement. Only Rolex-made Tudor branded watches should have the Tudor movement. To specifically answer your question, the chronometer movement would be best as it is a tested and certified time keeping movement.
If you comb a seller vetting platform*, for $1,300 you can find a worn out vintage Rolex that still performs decently by today's standards.I would recommend to also look at Tudor, whose watches have had a lower appreciation on the used market even though their external components are made by Rolex. For less than $1,300 you can find a Tudor watch in a great condition!* I cannot explicitly state their name, but if you search for the digits 24 preceded by the word Chrono you should be able to find the platform.
