Tudor snowflake experts please check this out!

Hi Guys,

This is a Tudor that I was thinking of buying would like some opinions. I have asked the seller for closeups of the bracelet, crown and crown pulled out as well. For now check these I know there not the best and tell me what you think.

Thanks

The pics are pretty bad, but from what I can see the case looks a bit off.

The writing on the caseback appears to be in a different font, and much too large. The 555 endlinks are incorrect as well.

There are a heck of alot of these Tudor frankens roaming around. I came across a site that sells the Snowflake cases or he will do a franken for $860 with an ETA movement!!

If you're not sure, and it certainly looks a bit suspect, I'd leave well alone.
