Sparkal Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Right so am only new to this Tudor bug, have spotted this on trade me, NZ version of e-bay. Something just does not look right to me, hands? http://www.trademe.co.nz/jewellery-watches/watches/mens-watches/vintage/auction-525842163.htm Any experts please pass on some guidance to a noob! Thanks in advance. Al
aeromatic Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 The Hands are the correct snowflake its possible that there may be aftermarket parts im not an expert the rotor looks gen not sure if the movement should have additional printings like on a rolex movement the watch looks very uniform in colour tone the backcase isnt the smoothback type i mean has a flat area this i have seen on aftermarket backcases again im not sure there are tudor experts on rwg that will be able to help you
woof* Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Little pricey, but looks good from the pics
cc33 Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Al, go to the vintage rolex market. They have those exact watches for sale for 2500$ - 2800$ not 3500$.. Ones with gorgeous patina.. http://www.network54.com/Forum/207673/message/1350481888/FS-+TUDOR+Submariner+94110+Blue+Snowflake+original+dark+patina+cheap+price+----+USD2450 http://www.network54.com/Forum/207673/message/1350408649/FS-+TUDOR+Submariner+94110+Blue+Snowflake+yellow+patina+matt+dial+%28reduced%29+----+USD2850
sgtguk Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Guys that price is in Nzd I reckon not Usd so is around the $2800 USD mark Al, go to the vintage rolex market.

Nanuq Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Is it just me, or is the movement in his photo a 2784?
redwatch Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Looks good to me. You're right Nanuq, that is a 2874 which would be period correct for this watch. Love that case back too!
Nanuq Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Hmmmmmmmmmm. His ad says it's wearing a 2776. Otherwise it's a fine looking piece.
tmg Posted October 22, 2012 Report Posted October 22, 2012 Agree, a little overpriced and buying from a "regular" at VRM is a safer bet for an all gen watch. Al, go to the vintage rolex market.

Sparkal Posted October 22, 2012 Author Report Posted October 22, 2012 Thanks for the feedback guys! greatly appreciated. And the vintage market site. Everyday is a school day and I keep picking up great new info! Thanks.

Plus no customs or duty issues like I would get importing one. Customs NZ will tax anything over $400NZD no matter what.
