'Nice'? For a watch built out of parts, I think it turned out Tribal (ie, outstanding).

Wearing the Big Kahuna this weekend --

It is a 7016/1, but thank you. I wish I could find the threads -- they were classics -- but my Rose Tudor Sub was 1 of a few dozen that were purchased as part of a group buy around 2009. I am still ambivalent as to their authenticity -- gen or franken? All of the watches contained gen Tudor (ETA) movements, which were correct for their respective references, but they could have been pulls from other watches. Also. the specific references varied -- some were 7016/1s like mine, but there were other Sub references with slightly different Tudor Sub dials -- if I remember correctly, they were all Rose dials. The cases and bracelets appeared to be gen, but the dials & handsets were either service parts or rare aftermarket parts (back then, no one was offering Tudor Sub parts, so we assumed them to be later service parts). The debates over the authenticity of these watches continued for several years without any definitive answers either way. But all the watches were stunners that had natural looking patina & felt right in the hand.
