Any experts on vintage tudor subs? It was on eBay a while back. Just curious about it as I have a chance to acquire it.

Thank you

The dial seems relumed quite badly. But I am not an expert and perhaps it has not aged very well

Very hard to tell anything with those bad pictures

saskmh · 27 October 2016, 07:26 AM

I think I looked at that one too. If I recall there was very little info on the watch and the pictures didn't show enough to help either. There were a few flags for me so I stayed away.

wjviper · 27 October 2016, 07:31 AM

What were the flags if you don't mind me askingZ

wjviper · 27 October 2016, 08:19 AM

Will get better pics this evening on it.

If it is the one I was thinking of the seller said he got it from an "old" fellow who he kept hounding to sell to him. I think he said it was from 1961 or so. When I did some digging I found another post from six months earlier using the same pictures but listing it as another model. The only photos were a few wrist shots in the guys vehicle. I would love to pick up an early 7928 but I want to see pics of the numbers, better pics of the dial and the movement is possible. The story just didn't add up so I moved on. I could be wrong but I feel like the pics you posted might be the same ones.

64 - with a redial, the correct dial is very expensive if you can find it. Insert looks cracked at pearl.

I was bidding but passed before it 3k

Better pics

Photos are no better - almost as if they don't want you to see it clearly

wjviper · 28 October 2016, 12:16 AM

Interesting. That or a poor camera

offrdmania · 28 October 2016, 12:23 AM

The camera needs to be focused on the dial and bezel. This is the type of photo clarity that we need to evaluate: Credit to HqMilton

If JR aka LS says run.....run

Brunik · 28 October 2016, 01:30 AM

I would skip!... there´s something that i don´t know what... but i don´t like!

harry in montreal · 28 October 2016, 03:29 AM

Bad photos. The redial is bad enough that I can tell with certainty. How much does seller want?

ABCWatchWerks · 28 October 2016, 08:08 AM

I would pass on this watch, mainly for the bad re-lume job on the dial.

cornerstore · 28 October 2016, 08:14 AM

I wonder if the domed acrylic crystal is distorting the lume ? I think it's domed, hard to tell anything in those pics.

wjviper · 28 October 2016, 10:48 AM

The price is 2900

harry in montreal · 28 October 2016, 12:53 PM

Well, that is a pretty good price. The 390 if running well is 700, plus 100 for crown. The case you can't touch for less than $2000. So the bezel is free. You can't touch an insert like that wth a bezel ring for less than 800 or so. If you don't own one... Why not
