Love the Tudor Submariner, and that 7020 is amazing!

Thanks a nice Ranger. I did not know that style was made in both a rotating and non-rotating dial. When we bought the watch in Geneva in 1977 we liked the matching dial and bezel color. Someone is selling a men's Chrono-Time for over $2700 on the auction site. (no affiliation). I do not know if this a realistic price or not. More than I can afford right now.

Just got my first Tudor. A 7020 which I am loving. It was serviced prior to purchase, but is having some issues.
Would this group of Tudor owners recommend an official Rolex or Tudor service center repair? Is a local watchmaker ok, or is that taking a chance? |

Find a good local watchmaker (search on the forums here) and don't send to Rolex, they'll charge you for ruining it if they touch it ; )

Did you end up getting anything?
Personally, a 79090, although perhaps not yet vintage, but not far off, would be my recommendation. In real life it is an absolute stunner - Matt dial, painted markers, plastic crystal, vintage Rolex feel - allmuch cheaper than a 16800 or 1680 etc

Very nice! The 7914 is thicker and with 20mm lug width make it wear larger. I think my cream dial 7914 looks quite similar with yours. Congrats.. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That cream 7914 is stunning. To me it's even more interesting than old Rolex Oysterdates.
Personally I own ref. 94510 Date+Day from 1987 in mint condition. Although it's my birth-year watch I'm thinking about selling it and buying a Datejust from the period. On the other hand it will be hard to find a Datejust in similar condition so I'm not convinced yet :D |
