Tudor Ranger 9050/Franken or not?
Hello everybody!
I am offered to buy a Tudor Ranger 9050 Prince Oysterdate, Has an inscription on the dial in red "Ranger", I heard that there are no "red" rangers in nature :) I want to hear your opinion. Sorry, I can not insert links, there is not enough status for 10 messages. |

I am trying to attach images to a post, but they are not there, maybe posts are being moderated?

You may have to adjust the image size.

One of these popped up on the Omega Forum years ago and the assumption is at the very best a redial and at the worst a complete fake.
A quick Google search shows no reference for a Red Dial Ranger so it would be a no go for me.

It is all very wrong because the 9050 Ranger started production in 1969 and ran through 1975 only. Your serial number comes back as 1960-1961. Tudor switched over to the large shield on the dials in mid 1968. A rose dial is not right for a 9050. I am thinking the whole head of the watch is fake and those hands without lume are worthless. A 9050 didnt exist in 1960 and a red ranger dial is fake. A 9050 serial number should start right around 68x,xxx.
Also, something is fishy about the bracelet. It says it is a 7206 with 80 end links, that bracelet is supposed to be for a sub with 20mm lugs, a 9050 has 19mm lugs. If this 9050 has 20mm lugs then it is really fake or the bracelet is fake. Im siding with this entire watch is fake. Too many red flags all the way around.

I’ll answer if I want to. That is my opinion.
