I have a Tudor model no 94510 that used to belong to my father. He bought it approx 20 yrs ago and wore it all the time, so neadless to say it has quite a bit of wear. The crystal, I believe, is acrylic and as such scratches very easily. I so want to restore it to look like the day he brought it home. He was so happy when he bought it that even my mother was not allowed near it! lol. The photo included is of the same model, but the watch in my possesion. I don't know much about watches. I would love to restore it, and even upgrade the crystal and bezel if possible because it beyond repair, and give it to my son one day. does anyone know where I can get parts for it like a crystal and bezel. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks,
Daniel M.

Well though I have a Tudor I add it here. Mine is a newer model of the one above. By the way good luck with restoring the date-day daniel! Is it the one on the picture or is it a similar? The one on the picture seems to me be in good shape.

WOW, so many fantastic Tudors!! Here's another shot of recent addition that just came back from Dalton. He's made it look so good that I can't bring myself to wear it. I just admire it's beauty.

Thanks.

Tudors are not sold in the US. Interwatches of Miami sells new ones on eBay or on their direct website, otherwise you have to go outside of the US to get an Tudor AD.

Here's a question for the group: What's the difference between a Prince Date and a Prince Oysterdate. They look the same to my untrained eye.

Well, both of them have Rolex Oyster cases, but in the case of older models (Oysterdate), caseback and crown is engraved with Rolex signature. And newer models (Prince Date) have engraved Tudor`s own signature. Also, bracelets are different. Oysterdate is fitted with classic Rolex Oyster bracelet, while Prince date have it`s own, Jubilee-style Tudor bracelet. And, of course, newer models have sapphire crystal...
I hope that it will help!

No real difference as such - the 'Prince Date' is a newer version and should (usually) have a Tudor marked case and crown, whilst the 'Prince Oysterdate' has a Rolex signed caseback and crown. The bracelets also differ.
- Neil.

Edit - I see Vukotab had already covered most of this tho....

Thanks Dan,
That's a real beauty you've got there.
I need to get a couple of those watch display stands.
People are going to think I'm showing off if I keep wearing them like this.

Bill,
Your [new to you] 79270P gives you lots of options. You can wear the Tudor style jubilee, oyster, or the leather strap with end links [great idea] and deployant. It should have 2 sets of inside lug holes to accommodate any of the options. Very cool.
