I know this auction ended but I did bid on this watch and was wondering if the watch was real. I tried doing searches on the watch but could not find much information on this Tudor. Thanks.

Welcome to the forum

It does not look right to me.

Stan needs to chime on this one...

...aside from that, and based upon the photo, the day is not changing as it should be.

...this may be representative of ONLY needing a good cleaning/oiling.

...date magnification is too small-would need a genuine crystal also.

...but short of that, we need more pic's.

That's the wrong ref # for a day-date. 74033 is a two-tone OysterDate.

Not real.....
The Tudor Day Dates are ONLY made in Steel, that watch is marked as being 18k-see reverse of lugs. The cheap sticker, which may or not be real is commonly used to obscure the writing on the case back to make it harder to tell a fake from the real thing. The date isnt changing properly, the magnification bubble is way off--numbers should be double that size.
Also it looks new--edges are perfect, not a chance it'd have ever been polished.
So nope...not real.

Thanks very a lot. Much appreciated.

The only 18k tudors I have seen have been older 1950's and beyond models.

This one really looks awful.
