The movement may or may not be correct. The ETA 2824-2 is easy to turn into a Tudor by exchanging the rotor.

As you’ve pointed out, the insert isn’t correct. The crown isn’t correct either.

Welcome indeed!

Looked on the Yuki site and almost all of the cases except a few made for Etas are "out of stock".
Wonder if they are going to stop selling them or what? Anyone bought a case lately?
Was contemplating buying a “Tudor 9411” case from Yuki. They are built to order. I.e. 35 day waiting time once order placed. I figured the upside would be they’d be able to engrave 94010 (no-date Snowflake) between the lugs instead of the 9411 (date version). Apparently not, after several emails it seems they are not able to, or don’t want to, offer custom engraving on a built to order case. Pity. -

Looks awesome! Do you mind if I ask what case that is?
Thanks! It’s a Silix case.

Jackflash, approximately what distance do you like to have this can away from your dial when you do the "texture adding" spray?
Ca. 30cm. Shake the can well first, a just give the dial a light dusting. You may want to give the dial a couple of coats depending on the texture you’re after. Let the dial dry between coats though. -

It should have an acrylic pearl for a start. Not one with a metal surround.
