Care to tell what the price range would be? seller is looking to shift all 10 of them, i'm fairly sure i can get him under $600 a piece, maybe lower...

By-Tor Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 That looks nice madmacs69! The case looks like a vietnam-case and it's a got a genuine vintage tudor mvt. Are you sure about the movement? I know very little about movements, but when I bought my MBW Tudor rep I initially thought it had a genuine movement as well. Well, it turned out to be ETA 2842 with TUDOR engraving on the rotor. It's the same lowbeat movement that's used in Swatches. Very cheap one. Read here. I'm not saying this one isn't genuine, I'm just curious. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dluddy Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Keep in mind that Tudor's use ETA movements Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

freddy333 Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Here is a gen 7928 for reference (Tudor caliber 390 movement - 18k bph) Here is another gen The rep is good, but, at $500-$600, not that good. If you can get the seller down to $250 or maybe $300, I might consider 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
By-Tor Posted April 11, 2008 Report Share Posted April 11, 2008 Keep in mind that Tudor's use ETA movements Yes, I'm well aware of that. But genuine Tudor movement from a 100% original Tudor is still different than "bulk" ETA or "rotor decorated" cheap Asian. The rep is good, but, at $500-$600, not that good. If you can get the seller down to $250 or maybe $300, I might consider 1. Agreed. Although I think it's great that we finally see proper Tudor Submariner reps. $500 or $600 is still too much (for me). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
madmacs69 Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 well looks like lack of interest will kill this deal... c'est la vie i suppose... still i have two... unless anyone's looking to part with a modded vintage seadweller as a trade... lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
yellomen Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 Well i already have one, but i don't think it's too expensive. The case is so much better than any rolex sub case. The crown sits in the case at the correct height, the finish is quite good, the rehaut is correct of 60's no date submariners (rolex and tudor)... so since we pay obscene amounts to get a watch modded and obscene amounts for replica watches... in that line i can justify a $500,- tudor replica. I would love to get a list of things that need to be done to the watch. And remember... tudor does not have a good and complete history of what case went where with which movement... there are so many different version...

bluebite Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 (edited) Here is a gen 7928 for reference (Tudor caliber 390 movement - 18k bph) The rep is good, but, at $500-$600, not that good. If you can get the seller down to $250 or maybe $300, I might consider 1. I think the rep in question is a 7016 not a 7928. It looks pretty correct to me, but the movement is wrong, the correct reference being an ETA 2983 with a ROW marking near the balance. Not an issue though. I'm interested IF it's under $400 and IF it's shipped from the EU. Would be interested in a 7928 rep too BTW...

freddy333 Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 For reference, this is James Dowling's 'big crown' Tudor 7924 (powered by a Tudor 390) This is essentially a 7928, but with a larger crown. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Hawkes Posted April 12, 2008 Report Share Posted April 12, 2008 would be interested if it is shipped from within EU.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

5frog Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 I have a source that has about 10 franken tudor subs if anyone is interested. He's after about $600 a piece. interested parties let me know and i'll try to get pics Just wondering if you still have that buddy with the 10 franken tudor sub's for sale. If so, I'm interested.

Bosshaug Posted September 10, 2008 Report Share Posted September 10, 2008 I'm a recent Tudor fan and I've been looking around for Tudors.. but no one sells them often requiring us to mod MBWs or other models with hard to find/expensive Tudor parts. How about a fully modded Tudor? Phong has two Tudor Models for sale... 7928 and a 9411. His price is $850. Apparently these are Vietnamese cases which are known to be better than MBWs. There may be a discount with a group buy, so I was wondering if there was an interest. If there's significant interest, we can drop the price to ~ $500. Thanks, Ken I have a womans Original oyster quartz.(Gen) Its from mid 80's. Replaced with a new batery but recently stoped. I might let this go if you are interested in originals. Or might trade it for a Nice rep Pam. I also have an original (GEN) Oyster submariner plexi glass Crystal with no magnifier. Nice and thick! (Not the watch just the crystal) from late 80's almost if not completely new. Been sitting in a small plastic bag.. Had it on my submariner for a week and then changed it for one with magnifier. But i am not sure if i can find it. If your interested i can look see. :-) - Also have somewhere a Gen white tudor oyster dial. (Dial only) Let me know.
