Based on my observations, up considerably - especially for nice examples.

What would be the updated price I'm seeing them for $6-8k now?

Depends - some nice ones are selling over 8k and some ridden hard and honest under 4-5k. Blue has taken a bigger premium as of late.

There are also some trying to cash in on less than top dollar watches and more than top dollar prices.

I'm crying inside as I recall how just a few years ago I missed out on an unpolished blue Snowflake with perfect patina priced at $3.5k.

These Snowflakes are becoming increasingly difficult to find at decent prices... Blue ones are especially difficult. I had one some time ago (last year I think) - sold it at a profit, but even now I can see that the price I got wouldnt buy me a similar example today. Tudor has exploded. Cant help but wonder if certain models will eventually surpass even Rolex in desirability and relative price. There are significantly less Tudors out there compared to Rolex

pricing for the blues has skyrocketed....not quite last year's Heuer bump but getting close. There are fewer and folks have noticed in the past year so demand is up......some are being found in drawers from years ago and being put on ebay and the sites now.....however, they are hard to find and the dial issues make certain years in good condition hard to find. Most of the price increase happened earlier this year....last few months has been stable. Bargains are few and far between.

Its not just the 9411 it's all of the Tudor Subs. They all seem to be increasing in value. The SF in both blue and black have been doing really well.

I hope this trend continues....regardless I am enjoying the heck out of my black 94010:)

Both correct - the top and bottom of the sweep Diamond is supposed to intersect the innermost edge of 6 and 9 (and 3 on a no date)
