Just got mine back from service. Guess it's been a while since 2012 when I acquired it.
Overhaul, Timed, replaced ratchet wheel..(yikes), winding pinion and gaskets. ! -
Didn't think I 'abused' it. Ratchet wheel failure due to 'excessive' winding...when not necessary., I'm told..um.?!?
Anyway, Great to have it back on my wrist...

Cheers. Yes the blue ones are hard to find especially full set. Very nice.

I saw a nice snowflake 9411 sub make around 120 k HKD plus buyers premium in sale recently.

I'd like to get a Plexi no date Tudor next! The hunt continues haha.

Tudor snowflake 94110 with loose bezel

Hi, I picked up this Snowflake. The bezel is loose, rotating with just a shirt cuff moving against it. I'm wondering if there's some spring that's missing or something. Also, the pearl glows in the dark. Which makes me think it's not original, and worries me about the insert and bezel. Anyone out there with some expertise what to chime in and, hopefully calm my worries? Thanks in advance!

There's definitely something wrong with that insert. It doesn't seem to be sitting right in the bezel.

Here is a pic of mine to compare. The pearl or pip on yours most likely was replaced. You could find a better match and replace again. And there is a tension ring/collar that is what keeps the bezel in place. Have you ever pooped off the bezel? That ring might not be seated properly, might be bent, might not be the correct size.

Thanks Brian. Yes, new tritium pearl on the way that will match and not glow. Popped off the bezel and see no tension spring. Ordered one.

Does anyone know if the Tudor 75090 is supposed to have a bi-directional or unidirectional bezel? Mine only goes one way, but I've read that some have bi-directional bezels.

I’m a Tudor 94010 owner researching the model, so this seems the appropriate thread to ask if anyone has information regarding a breakdown of numbers produced for the date vs no-date, and, even better, including numbers of black vs blue? Thanks.
