Clasp Code

[Swaye]

To add some info to this conversation, I am looking at a Tudor Big Block right now AD stamped and dated in December 1994, that has an all correct bracelet/end link combo with a T6 clasp code. Owner is the second owner and is reasonably sure the bracelet was never swapped.

I found ONE list online that shows T clasp codes for both 1994 and 1995. A few that show no T clasp codes whatsoever, and most lists that show the T clasp code as 1995 only.

Based on this watch and the seller, I think (no for sure knowledge) that the T code was used in 1994 and 1995.

Anyone else have a 1994 sold Rolex/Tudor with a T clasp code?

Link to the one place where T codes are shown as 1994:

All case codes and bracelet codes are just a approximation case or bracelet was stamped between X&Y years and clasps are made separate to bracelets.So with clasps there can be differences from the case serial,all internet codes are not 100% accurate as Rolex has never given this information out.They are made by information based when the watch was sold at ADs and all a approx date between X&Y years.

Thanks buddy! That is helpful. Just wanted to know with certainty there were other T codes out there sold in 1994.

Appreciate it Padi. I know there is some variance in clasp/bracelet/serialization but I do appreciate your calling it out specifically. Because I could only find one single source that showed T clasps in 1994, and there are MANY that show them starting in 1995, I just wanted to ask our experts here and see if anyone had a 1994 sold T code. I strongly assumed this clasp was legit, but verification on TRF helps me sleep better at night.
