First Tudor Sub 9401 rep

Hey everyone,

Recently I've acquired a Tudor 9401 custom build and I'm very pleased with it! It wears well and currently I have it on a gen vintage jubilee :)

I've noticed that the font on the dial is off though and the engraving on the caseback could also be better. I'm making this post to let you guys make a judgement on it, where are the shortcomings and where could I find a better dial & caseback? I've noticed mq makes good dials but wondered if these fit on a ETA 2824 movement.

After a quick search I've found a gen bezel insert and it's on it's way!

Kind regards

Hi, I bought it from someone who does it custom.

Going to buy the mq dial soon, crown is gen :)

Any idea where I could find a better seconds hand and another caseback? Not sure if a caseback from mq will fit this case

In my parent's basement
Looks great - do some slight aging to the plots and hands. Insert is amazing

Mine for today:
