Tudor 7016 questions

Guys, I’m trying to learn about the Tudor snowflake, specifically the 7016; any pointers you could give would be appreciated

Bubbling on the dial seems common. I’ve read that this was a reaction between the paint etc used and often occurred early in the watche’s life - is this something to be concerned about? Is it something that continues to get worse or just an initial reaction that does not get worse?

Does the bubbling significantly reduce value?

I’ve read conflicting advice on what the original crown should be - a coronet with no dots or a triplock. Can anyone clarify?

If these are running right, how accurate are they expected to be? (Just as a reference point)

Can you still get replacement original crystals for these without needing a mortgage?

Is there anything in particular I should watch out for?

Has anyone got some gratuitous shots of theirs?

Thanks all

The bubbling dials don’t seem to affect prices as much as you would think.
Personally I wouldn’t touch such ticking time bombs.
