For the little story I always liked the Tudor 7928, but I also always liked snowflake hands, so one day I came across this Tudor watch and instantly knew it was the one I wanted :
https://hqmilton.com/products/1965-tudor-submariner-7928-with-newer-snowflake-dial-and-hands
I checked the spare parts I had, ordered some others, got lucky in finding some stuff (like the gen Rotor), asked the watchmaker Natas78 if he could make some magic and here it is ! By the way, my favorite part of the watch (except for the dial, hands and gen Rolex insert) is the movement. I think it really looks very similar to a vintage gen Tudor movement of the 70's.
Quickly on the movement, it was serviced in November 2024 and the ghost date position was removed with a setting lever (only two positions : wind and time setting, no ghost date).

Selling price is 900 Euro + shipping ! That's way less than what I payed for this build and it's available right now.
The only reason I'm selling this watch is because UPS lost my superfranken 5512 (with gen movement and a whole bunch of gen parts), and I need to get back some cash... There's nothing wrong with this Tudor, it looks great, runs great and was a pleasure to put together.
Thanks for reading.
