Vintage Tudor Oysterdate 74000

So I was browsing watchrecon like I do daily and came upon this vintage Tudor Oysterdate.

http://forums.watchuseek.com/f29/fs-...o-1092099.html

I love the looks of it but I've never had/bought a vintage watch. I've never owned a watch with an acrylic crystal so that kind of worries me. I see it has a rolex bracelet that looks good but isn't original. Was looking to get some advice/info on this piece or similar vintage Tudor (Prince) Oysterdate. What do these usually go for price wise? Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I would say the bracelet alone is worth half the asking price if there isn't too much wear.

price seems to be on the high side but watch looks great. crystal also seems to be sapphire (not acrylic). maybe he is factoring in the price of the upgraded 78350 bracelet to his asking price.

I used to own one. Price is a little high but not far off

Ya I agree that it looks great and the crystal didn't look acrylic to me but was told it was. A Lil hesitant since I'm pretty new to the vintage scene

It's a nice machine, I'm a consummate flipper though

Are you sure that bracelet is real? How can you tell?
