Gorilladame Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hi! I just found something interesting on the bay and I Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Things don't look quite right here. Apart from the movement, which does look suspiciously small, the hands are wrong for this model. The crown looks too big, and the bezel edge is one I have not seen before on this model. But...... if you take it at face value as a franken, and get it for a song, it would be worth a punt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gorilladame Posted February 12, 2010 Author Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 (edited) yes the hands also look a bit too new, compared with the rest. But... buying it and putting a james bond dial in it would make a nice looking (totally incorrect) watch imo Edited February 12, 2010 by Gorilladame Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Slartibartfast Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 BTW, the date mag is wrong and the case back is wrong. It is not the colour of the hands that's wrong, it is the shape. The bezel insert looks incorrect for this mosel as well, it's missing the pearl. Unless you are in love. I would treat this as a "bitsa".

TeeJay Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Hmmmm As 'a watch', as mentioned, quite wearable, but I'd be very surprised if any of the parts are genuine. The case and bezel just look totally wrong, the insert doesn't have a pearl, and the hands are not the hands from the 1655, but something similar. Depending on the cost, I think I'd as soon buy cheap watches for parts, and custom-build something to my own specs, rather than buying someone else's custom Of course, as 'a watch', nothing wrong with, at least it doesn't say 'Rolex' on the dial, so it's not a fake Rolex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 The movement is definitely off. Here's a couple of pics of mine: Also, here's a pic of a caseback (mind you it's a rep, but a pretty good one IMO) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redwatch Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 Also, just noticed the dial is 100m / 330ft. That's a new one. Haven't seen that one before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick1972 Posted February 12, 2010 Report Share Posted February 12, 2010 It's just a regular Tudor with a sub (rep?) dial and mini sub hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fakerai Posted February 13, 2010 Report Share Posted February 13, 2010 I believe this is for ladys/boys Tudor Sub model with 30mm. wide. See another here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
