Vintage Tudor Prince info please! Just got back from service.

I just got my Tudor Prince back from getting fixed up. I can't find another Non Oyster Prince anywhere unless it's a really early square style watch. Any info on that? Also is the face logo a redialed feature or original? It's well done. I'm really liking it. Keeps great time and a nice size for me. Any info on era? Originality? I'm not too worried about value honestly but maybe if it's a super rare oddity it would be interesting to know. Thanks in advance.







And here are some before shots. Came in the original box!

It wouldve been great to get some shots of the movement etc, when it was being serviced.. There's always information on the inside...
Nice looking piece, imo...!

Thanks. I really like it. Next time I'm in I guess I could ask him to crack it open quick and snap some pics.

Is the Logo original?

Looks redialed - get a crisp shot?

The dial has certainly been repainted and relettered.

I also suspect the watch has been re-cased. Would be interesting to see inside the case...

Well the guy who did the service said it was authentic.
Upon closer inspection the logo seems to match the thickness and style of the numbers. It's confusing. I can't really get better pics. Everything has really fine detail.
