I actually got round to replacing the harley insert with the red insert !

i can always change it back ! (anyone know where i can find burgandy dark red insert ? )

I know that it has been said before but everyone should be careful that they dont accidently order from a scam seller pretending to be a trusted dealer because then you can kiss goodbye your money this advice is aimed at the new members here as i subcribe to TDs i always entre there site by clicking on to there email website,or on a rwg TD link

never go on google looking for them you will surely run into scam site !

One Question as im building a 94010 blueflake were these watches fitted with tudor shield logo clasps i have found a tudor rep clasp but its the short buckle type

Somehow I am not conviced this is GEN..

something wrong with the rehaut... and the strap (definitely wrong).

What do you guys think?

rehaunt is correct there are two types depending on the age of the watch this rehaunt is what i call ridged type flat on top.

this type of rehaunt was used on date subs including (redsubs) some redsub reps have it and a 26mm dial can be fitted due to the width of the rehaunt like the 2846 eta redsub reps

Somehow I am not conviced this is GEN..

something wrong with the rehaut... and the strap (definitely wrong).

Description we believe this watch was made in the 1950s ? where did they get that info from

well the seller has 100% positive feedback mabe some sellers who dont know about watches purchase a fake and sell it on ebay not knowing it is fake but we would never know if they knew or not always check the small print mabe somewhere you may read (we believe this watch to be a gen ,no returns accepted ) these are vintage watches that are over 40 years old so expect them to have different braclets ,refinished dials aftermarket insert and so on.

i think this is gen im not expert but lets face it the tudor flake is the easiest to fake than a rolly due to there available eta.movements

Here is a photo i played with the colour tint to darken the insert can not find a black bay tone insert !

Here is my friends very strange (well to me anyway) 5513 rep he still will not tell me where he got it

Mabe someone here can shed some light on it ? all i can say is it looks like its built like a tank and is very heavy , i thought it might be a modded comex case but there is no HEV on it anyway here are some quick photos notice also the thick bezel its eta powered .

ignore the photo title there were saved in the wrong file Lol!

Just fitted a gen crown and re-done the cgs again Here is the before and after photos

and the after photos ,replaced the green tone hands with matching yellow

Still wearing my black bay homage have been playing with different inserts!

What do you guys think stay with the harley (bandy) insert or fit the red insert? here are some photos with the red insert offered over the fixed harley insert.

I must admit the red insert does look stunning ! although it needs a better pearl.

here is the insert thats on at the moment

Sounds like the icing on the cake

It will be the icing on the cake when i order a tudor shield 16mm buckle for the 1680 bracelet and a tudor watch box is coming too ! just recieved a beyerler(did i spell it correctly?) stamped blue tudor flake dial waiting for the case and blue insert to come ! and jmb,s super engraving on my backcase im thinking of getting a yuki gen crown but which one type 1 or type 2

Looks bitchin My one crit would be to swap the pearl for a modern white-lume pearl

Ha ha ! Thanks my coke red insert is coming this week and thats got the white pearl so consider it done ! as i said i ordered both harley and coke red inserts to see which i like best but this harley suits the watch just swopped the bracelet again with my 1680 bracelet which is heavier and i will order a raffles tudor shield 16mm buckle for it !

Tuesday ! well it must be monday somewhere right ?

Slipped it on a riveted bracelet i should find a sel and midlink with a tudor shield buckle

scooped up a couple of tudor watch boxes from ebay 73 euros shipped

No prizes for guessing which box will go with the blackbay

the other will be for my current project a snowflake 90410 !

Are some of these Ebay sellers smoking crack, or am I just so far out the loop. I'm stuck in the 1970's?

Here is a dial that looks like it went through the Nanug survival testing program, and it failed.

http://www.ebay.com/...=item337d50d3eb

First off it's hard to see how the dial got so beaten up, yet the white writing is very readable. looks like it was hand drawn over the old letters with a white marker. And the best, it's not 49.00 USD. it's not 490.00 USD, he's asking 4900.00 USD for this dial. I know these are rare, but come on, 4.9K?

These ebay sellers are smoking crack for sure a tudor rose watch for 59,995usd for what was a poor mans rolex i love tudor subs and they are rare but do they actually sell them for this amount there should be rules against over pricing items 5,000usd for a 5513 dial what next it seems that anything rolex vintage automatically means $$$$$$$$$ and a get rich quick scheme for the seller this dail while not that high a pricetag has to be a joke and i wonder what the hell happened to it when you think that it was factory fitted into a sealed water resistant case i know they are rare but what use is this dial it looks like it was used for target practice .

if this was in my watch surely i would replace it !

Great watches guys ! i split the weekend up with these

Black bay style custom !

6538 bond franken submariner !

Has anyone purchased the watcheden or idloreplicas vintage rolly subs? i am thinking of using this watch as a base for my tudor flake no date project

i want to fit a refinished 26mm dial but im not sure if there will be any issues as most rep subs are 29mm

puretimes 1680 redsub fits a 26mm dial

watcheden vintage sub

if i dont go with one of these two then i will go for a yuki case! decisions decisions !

Still wearing my Black bay styled custom !

Ahh Yes Super my next build all i need is a case and bracelet !

I have the same problem on my 5 year old IBM/Lenovo ThinkPad R61. I couldn't be bothered to spend the time/money to fix it so connected it to a keyboard, mouse, monitor and now its a great desktop

Same here cant be bothered to spend money on it so i have to keep slapping it now and again watches and cars on the other hand get allocated a lotta $$$$$$$ !

Wow A, gotta see it when I go to Singapore. The ones I've seen so far wasn't great, even the BK/TC modded ones. Guess ur one of the few

@ Aeromatic, not trying to picking on you or anything and sorry about your keyboard, but I found it difficult to read despite it being very interesting. hahahaha.

No offence taken my friend i sometimes post on here like sending a sms on my mobile !

Great work aero, just found the thread now, great build, looks great on the wrist!

Thanks cougar1 !

believe it or not, J, I have rep rolexes which bezels "click" better than my gen one

the best click was on my first swiss noob tt blue sub it was smooth enough to add a few more oooo in the word smooth. and also i was checking out a gen datesub and its bezel clicks sounded like a ratchet.

MMMMMMMM, I love that watch sir,

Thank you Sir ! yours too !

Nice collection and charles bridge in background

I bet the dude collection can stretch right across that charles bridge !

Thanks for the update cougar1 ! looking great !

I keep coming back here again and again just in case i missed something or you have added another batch of your looooonnnnngg collection !
