I'd give a left....... uh, well...... for a Tudor anchor

My M Ser# SD didnt have one, so i had to buy one from someone, but at least i was able to find a SD anchor. When i looked at the 1998 SD last week at the AD, it had the anchor still with it. Ron

I was robbed...the anchor that came w/ my DSSD is off by 8800 ft!

Seriously, does anyone know how to tell a fake anchor from a legit one? I bought one from eBay a while ago when I had my SD for around $10...I figured even if it is fake, it's only 10 bucks. But, it would be cool to know if it is real (which I'm sure it's not...considering the high level of fake Rolex's floating around these days, god knows an anchor is basic to copy).

It looks legit to me, they come in a sealed thick plastic satchel

I've got the plastic satchel...but figured that could be faked too. Either way, I'm not losing any sleep over it...just curious. Cheers.

nice gold anchors. really rolex misses the boat when they dont include these.. My Sd in 1992 came with an achor the cost papers, the box some cheap plastic wallet card holder. No spare links, no green glass paperweight nothing. Cheaped out i say.
