Okay, I've been reading about the california dial debacle for a while. This is making me nervous. This because I bought this oysterdate a while back with, that's right, a california dial. This one doesn't have rolex on the dial (I wouldn't have bought it if that was the case), but Tudor. What of it? From what I've gathered it's a redial by a "company based in california" but is it fake by definition? Everything else seems legit with ref/serial numbers etc.

I think it's gorgeous none the less.

Wow I love it, and well, want it.. Ha

The dial is definitely refinished, and the hands may or may not be original, but the rest is likely legit.

Some like 'em, some don't. As long as you didn't overspend for it...

so what do you guys think?

the ref is 90734 B.
The crown is as it should be.

thanks for the info adam.

It a cool watch, enjoy it...

I'm all for originality but on some watches I think professional liberties can be taken to make something you enjoy, a tudor at the right price is a good example...

I agree the dial is very likely refinished and the hands are not original. But again it's a great design, enjoy.

Very likely? 100% sure refinished or after market :-)
