Aero, maybe contact Jmb and see if he can make a dial for you. I don't know if he's doing them now but you can ask.

Here's the one he made me.

Thanks woof! great watch! i have ordered two today before i saw your post ! but i will keep it in mind i usually go round collecting parts and storing them for future projects or passing them on i ordered a rose black dial and a blue-ish rose dial with round raised markers the blue one im not sure what type of case to use i assume merc handset the site called it a snowflake dial but as i said it has round markers

Well now we are on the subject of tudors i wonder if my christmas bonus will buy me this brand new tudor heritage

disclaimer : This photo is taken off the official tudor heritage website ( i did not mean to hijack the photo)

well its modern but with a truly vintage feel! shame rolex should take a leaf out of tudors book and make a new 6538 submariner

but then again it would be built the size of a deepsea (no offence intended to dssd fans) and a saphire crystal nice to see a new vintage watch with dome crystal !

I ordered the same dial, thought I put it in a silix 6538 case, change the bezel and have black bay prototype. Unfortunately I received a regular snowflake dial as stated in the text on the site. I mailed them and got an answer that they will address the issue as soon as they return from vacation. I hope you got the right one or have they just put the wrong picture to the text?

Sounds like a great plan! Where would you have the crown engraved?

i would get a local jewlery engraver to do the wotk working with a photo of the bb crown but even a plain crown would be ok with me!

i have send around a 100usd for parts my watchmaker friend ordered from him with no problems but that was on ebay over 3 days no reply.

Anybody else prefer the look of the Tudor Sub to the 16610+ ?

WOW! Is this dial available anywhere?

I was bit by the Tudor bug about a month ago, here's some builds:

 

 

 

Cartel case, bracelet, ETA 2846 with Yuki Tudor Rotor, Yuki dial and hands, rep bracelet, Clark T-19. I tried to install a gen crown and Clarks tube, but snapped the tube during installation   So the Cartel one will have to do for now...

 

 

My Ranger build. Tudor 9052 case, Seagull 2824, Yuki Dial and hands, Hirsh Lizard strap, Rolex buckle. This one needs a little work. The date doesn't snap over perfectly so I have to tinker around with it.

 

 

A work in progress. The case is a DW case for ebay, unfortunately the dial is a shade too small for it, probably because it's meant for a 1680 dial. The dial is from ebay, as are the hands, blue insert is from WSO, powered by an Asian 2836.

@monkeypunch.. they all look great.

Super builds ! im building a blue flake no date i got the dial from ebay mhand and ordered the insert from   wso but the insert is too dark/purple/blue and does not match the dial your insert looks like it matches the dial ? i had to install a small thin stainless steel ring under the rehaunt in the 1680 case as the dial is 26mm and a little to small

Thanks guys! I got my dial from mahand as well. He sent me the wrong first, the no-date dial, there is a difference in the colour of those two dials, the no-date seemed to be a lot lighter in colour. Stainless steel ring for the rehaut? Wish I thought of that! I just ordered another case set from DW, that he assured me would fit a 26mm dial...
