Beautiful, Chris! Really like that bracelet too. When/ where did you get the Tudor stand?

Thanks Dan. I really love the watch. It is a 1977 or so and is all original, with folded bracelet, except for one end link that has been replaced with an incorrect Rolex part. One endlink is a 380 and I can't remember the part number for the other. I also change out the original bracelet to a 93150 with 580 endlinks and the fit is perfect. The dial, hands, bracelet, clasp, bezel insert with the missing pearl are all original to the watch.

Messing around with the camera and the white balance was off. I will take some better pictures to show off the blue face and faded bezel insert. Photoshop? Too lazy.

I could have bought one about a month ago at a very fair price. I passed b/c I was Panerai crazy at the time. I'm starting to cool down. Got too many watches I want.

*sigh*

Beauties all, guys. Maybe if Bubba would stop buying every vintage watch in north Georgia I would get a chance to get something cool.

It's a beauty. I saw that black dial version of that Tudor while in HK 2 months ago and was tempted !
