That's a tudor date-day jumbo 38mm. I believe there are no replicas or case sets for the jumbo 38mm model. You will therefore likely need a gen case set, in order to build a jumbo 38mm model.

However, you can buy a replica or use a case kit to build a 36mm 762xx date-day.

In my opinion, the replica 36mm date-day 76200 / 76214 from mks factory is far better than any replica case kits currently available.

Thanks for your kind reply and infos, much apreciated.
Well, I see that I would need to go to many compromises as those 36mm have jubilee bracelets but I would like to have it in oyster, then I would prefer smooth bezel and the dial is too "modern".

Do you have any idea what is the dial diameter on 38mm models?

You can pair an oyster bracelet with a 36mm mks tudor 76200 / 76214. I believe the gen can come with tudor folded oyster bracelet:

E.g.

Thanks again.
I will examine a little those infos and then decide.
Any hint who should I contact for build?
I don't have any skills, tools and knowledge to do it by myself, unfortunately.

In my opinion, no need to build if you dont need a vintage plexi tudor date-day. Just buying the mks 76200 / 76214 is the best option in terms of accuracy, price, and convenience. Then maybe upgrade the movement with a Swiss ETA 2834 movement, just like the genuine Tudor 76200 / 76214.

Furthermore, I find the mks 76200 / 76214 to be far better than any DIY date-day case sets currently available. I have a genuine Tudor 76200 date-day and the mks is pretty accurate.
