My Tudor 41mm BB monochrome REPLICA

If you take a 16610LV and replace the LV-insert with an original LN-insert, and in addition remove the original Oyster 93250 bracelet and mount an original 62510H "50" jubilee bracelet...you get the perfect replica of the latest hyped Tudor - only thinner and more elegant.

If my aunt had nuts she be my uncle.

That's a long way 'round the barn but if you got the time, skills, parts, and knowhow...........

I prefer the original BB mono w/ oval link jubilee.

Looks way better than the BB due to the worst thing about it (Rolex/Tudor’s refusal to let the BB’s have the proper 5513/14060 bezel edge.)

Also doesn’t have the misprint that almost all in-house Black Bays have on the dial.

Thanks. I use it for bicycling and power walks. So, not used that often.

Far prefer the Tudor which exudes masculinity compared to that Frankenwatch Tudor Wannabe and the Tudor is far more legible due to the superior Snowflake Hands. Each to their own though!

But, a Tudor is preferred among those who can't afford a Rolex. Right?

Yeah, I’ve only got 3 Rolex and 2 Tudors so you must be right.

It’s OK to like and own both brands. Love my BB58! Looking at that mod, I’d rather have the new Tudor. I do like the jacket though.

Pretty much.

We are making Rolexes to look like a Tudor. Fascinating really.

I’ve had a Tudor and much prefer a Rolex for the finishing and overall quality.
