Something new down-under ...

Mid winter and horrible down here just now so a perfect time for some recreational shopping.
I've been hankering for a Snowflake date so I nabbed this 9411/0 a couple of weeks back.

Not a perfect example with a couple of flaws .... ratty bezel and an incorrect insert - incorrect in the nicest possible way though
Eagle eyes may spot the after-market 7206 bracelet ... although the clasp is real ... my budget has run out sorry
Overall though, it's healthy enough and the patina fits right in with my motley collection.


And a hearty thanks to Mr Linesiders for his help with my due diligence - he's a great fella and certainly knows his Tudors

That'll be my inconsistent camera skills bro ....

Pics shown here are a fairly good representation.
A fairly dark orange, touching on brown thing, going on with the plots.

A buyer would say ... " ... dirty orange ... "
A seller would say " ...a hue reminiscent of a Parisienne autumn sunrise ..."
