nick1972 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 Today I finished my other gen Tudor build, A tropical 7928 from 1967. I think I got a very very rare dial because normaly you only see chapter ring tropical dials. This one is a late rose dial without a chapter ring and the dial is creamy chocolate, perfect for a '67 Tudor 7928. Text is very clear on the dial but difficult to capture on pictures. Big bubble second hand, twinlock crown, FEF 390 silver caliber The watch is also not polished, nice beveled lugs and look at the crownguards! Not rounded at all. The crisis was a good plan to obtain al the parts but now all the Tudor/Rolex parts are rising again.
chiman12 Posted January 15, 2011 Report Posted January 15, 2011 that IS NICE...yes...I am green with envy...
nick1972 Posted January 15, 2011 Author Report Posted January 15, 2011 Yes everything is gen except the insert I guess, very strange color. But then again, I saw a picture from a gen rollie with the same color insert.

lhooq Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 The brown and blue make a perfect pair. Lovely Subs!
Dizzy Posted January 22, 2011 Report Posted January 22, 2011 nice work!!! My second rolex I ever bought was an old Snowflake. I traded it for a set of used Superswamper tires when I bought my first 4x4... Used Toyota 4-Runner. I wanted to lift it and get tires but I didnt have enough cash. Buddy at the tire store wanted my Sub and took it on trade. back then it was worth nothing.. Paid like $400 for it and it was worth maybe $800. Now they are worth the same as a rolex sub. Stupid me.
