Tudor 75203 Case Engravings Check

Considering a trade for this Tudor Prince but the serial numbers are in worn shape and don’t look quite right to me. What does the group think?

All good.The rather unusual for period SWISS dial is also correct - as weirdly some models like this and 74000 got SWISS dials in the 80s and early 90s!

Good to hear! As far as the serial goes it doesn’t seem to match up to any year though. Am I missing something?

Early 300,000 is the last of the 1989 before The Letter prefix in 1990 https://sweepinghand.co.uk/useful-in...erial-numbers/

I though it was 5 digit serial. 31665. Guess a digit is not as visible from band rash?

Couldn't read it properly.... if it's 31665 it an couple of years earlier eg 85,86,87 from that year chart I sent you. Either way it's fine Rgds Paul
