Only thing that I can see which is good is the movement.

The case back is fake, I don't like the Crown Guards, I don't like the dial, the insert, the crown.

I want to see clear / legible case engravings before I fully commit, but I think this watch is no good.

Its crazy how there is wear on the movement which you usually dont see because it is inside the case, yet the outside of the watch looks perfect.
Most likely, the movement was lying around and someone decided to put the old movement inside a fake watch.

I am no expert but the rehaut looks to wide and the edge of it is a right angle, there is no slope down to the dial.

Text book. A pre purchase question, some full some knowledge imparted, some wise concurring/seconding, and an OP thank you. What's not to like (⁠•⁠‿⁠•⁠) - wish t'was always thus.

Interesting to see a genuine movement with the rest of the watch being a replica!

I have seen a couple of Tudor 2784s sell cheap on ebay in recent weeks... to be in some 9411 replicas soon, I guess!
