Need help on vintage Tudor 79090

All,

Looking for some expert advice on this one. Have been looking for a blue 79090 to add to the collection. I missed out on one in the past and I am determined to fine one again that checks several boxes.

I came across this one on Chrono24...seems a little too high on price but what are the collective thoughts here?

Thanks all

It seems counterintuitive to be selling a full set, yet no photos of the box and papers?

Case seems in pretty rough condition and the past polishing was poorly done.

Without accounting for the box and papers, I would call this overpriced by double.

I actually own a 7021, snowflake from 1971. That is too high for that model.
Email skip@skippowellstudio.com.........he gets a few good Tudors every now and then. Also check out HQ Milton, and Lunar Oyster......Follow Lunar Oyster on IG....his pieces do not last very long..he gets great quality pieces.

Thanks all - appreciate the feedback and thoughts. Funny enough on the box and papers...I reached out to the seller asking for a picture of the box and papers and so far have not seen them.

This definitely seem high on price for this - these generally sell well below the price of a snowflake, from my research. At this price, you might as well go snowflake.

A few grand to high, you can hunt for a snowflake for that money.
