Tudor 7019/4 Jumbo

Hi,

I am about to buy my third Tudor Jumbo (yes, I like them that much!).

I have the 7017/0 Grey dial, 7019/3 White dial and I am looking to add 7019/4 Blue dial.

I didn't had the chance to inspect it in person but looking at the pictures, all looks ok to me.

My knowledge about this watches is far more limited than the knowledge of some people here on the Vintage forum, so feedback on the watch period correct elements and it's condition will be very much appreciated!

Thanks!



Ps. I cannot judge well from these photos but the caseback writing seems shallow/over polished.

I don't see anything that stands out as a red flag. Hope this one makes it three for you!

I loved my 7020/0 w/ rotating bezel. But even the best watchmakers in the biz couldn't get the watch to work due to the Achilles Heal of the AC Shields moment, the canon pinion.

That 7020 is beautiful! I know that I will get one someday. :)

Have you considered at one point sourcing the parts from another AS 1895 movement?
That pinion canon perhaps could have been replaced?

I serviced my both Tudors at the local AD, at that time didn't receive any news if this issue is present. Do you know if there is a way to observe it on the watch before I pull the trigger?

The bracelet also looks good. I believe the 7020 are coming only on oyster bracelet, from where did you source the jubilee?

Thanks!

I had the canon pinion adjusted and then replaced but the tension would not hold which kept the hands from moving even though the movement itself was working. It spent more time on watchmakers benches than on my wrist. I sold it to a guy in Canada who was buying a couple to get one complete watch.

It's been so long I can't remember where I got the jubilee bracelet from. Pretty sure Tudor & Rolex allowed any bracelet preference at the time. I bought the watch head only and sourced a correct Oyster but wanted the jubilee option as well.
