Hi all,

I just have a quick question on where the best place to purchase a replica of a vintage tudor submariner? I'm not sure if trusted dealers carry this kind of watch and I could use some help finding the best place to source a good replica, maybe something that has some artificial wear to it as well? I'm pretty much looking for any 40mm model, so 79090, or any snowflake reference as well.

Any help would be great, thanks!

You can get JKF/Cartel 4-digit Tudors from Marvellous Replica:

https://forum.replica-watch.info/for...17-1665-series

The stock JKF black dial vintage models are okay. Both date and no date black dial snowflakes are also available but only with 2836 movement (no low beat option). The blue dial snowflake is horrible - the dial and bezel are both an electric blue which is miles off gen.

JKF watches are wearable OOTB, but they benefit from modding to make them look aged. That’s where the fun starts!

EDIT: BTW, I mentioned Marvellous Replica because M has a long-running deal (see the link above) and is therefore the cheapest source I know for the JKF vintage watches.

^ This. I will also highly recommend sending it to a modder to get a new dial, crystal and get it aged appropriately. Very worth it in my opinion, JKF/Cartels are easy to get from most TDs just give em a shout. For a vintage watch, the dial is arguably one of the most important parts to get right.

Oh wow, that s all super helpful information, thanks a lot! On one last note, are there any guys or services out there any of you would recommend I could go to get the watch properly aged?
