Is this Tudor Submariner Snowflake 94010 original?
Hello everyone,
My name is George and I'm a long time lurker :D Today I came across a beautiful Tudor Submariner Snowflake ref. 94010 and I have the opportunity to buy it. Unfortunately my knowledge in vintage Tudors is almost inexistent. I'll attach all the photos from the seller and I would like to know a few opinions. Is the watch original or not? Is the dial original to the watch or is it a redial or a refurbished dial? I'm asking because the fonts and the spacing looks a little strange to me. I notice there's a slight hue difference between the lume on the hands and the lume on the hour markers. Is this normal or it suggests a re-lume? Any other info is welcome and really appreciated. I have less than 24 hours to decide if I should buy it or stay away. Thanks a bunch! George |

Total fake, especially the hands and crown.

Run for the hills!
Run and don't look back. The hands was the first dead giveaway. The hands are oversized compared to a vintage example. The lugs are also unusually wide. The shape of the crown is also poorly defined.
