Need some of the tudor experts here like Linesider to chime in.

Definitely one of the less seen versions - first glance looks ok but gut feel is the dial and hands are service parts.

Crown guards look odd. The case shape looks odd. The dial and hands were not born together.
John will know more.

There is a time of funky backsides of Crown guards after the SPCG the vary a bit - this watch is in that range. It is also in the range for the shield, round marker, Flake hands.

Brian - you need to take better photos

Ohh - it is a legit range - I am confident in that. I just look at photos of engravings - they are good as well - no worries.
