Tudor 9411 Submariner. The blue faced one...

I don't often get to work on these.... It's a pleasant watch. I'm not sure of the specs as I only modified the case and assembled the watch here, so I'll let the owner step in if he wants to tell us more about his watch.

Nice.

 

I always wondered why the rep makers don't make good out-of-the-box vintage reps. Like the 1675 and Tudor Subs. These would sell like hotcakes.

 

Ah well they do, but they're all utter shite.

 I suspect the answer to that is that we, the members of all the forums are a tiny section of the market and Chinese domestic customers are the biggest buyers. We want vintage, they want current models. Current models are therefore where the money is

Good point. General public don't even know what Tudor is. 

 

But I'd love to see that classic 1675 well done (as in your signature). They make the shitty versions so why not make it properly? It's such a simple watch.

Not a 1675, but I love everything about this new Tempus Machina other than the price. Vintage looks, modern practicality. The bezel insert is sapphire.
