It haaas gen 5513 insert and gen 700 crown. Still waiting on the tube it’s just sitting over the stock Vietnam tube. Swiss 2836 Vietnam case dial and Mary folded link bracelet. I added the bubble texture patina to the dial. Really my favorite build I’ve done so far.

Looks like an absolute stunner mate congratulations!!

The gen crown really sets it off nice definitely can tell it's gen just by a glance, seen this in the tudor forum wristy. The service insert looks great nothing beats gen :cool:

Did shipping take long to US with mary? I'm thinking about picking up a folded myself!

No. I took maybe two weeks, but this was way before any coronavirus BS. It’ll probably take some time now. I have like three packages coming from overseas just hanging out in limbo. Lol

Little close up for y’all of the patina I did to the dial. Got the hands to match the beat I could. But gens don’t always match perfectly, so I’m pretty happy. These two are the last of my obsession. Lol.

Nice bud. We have the same taste in watches. I’ve been looking at doing a date just build. Just gotta make some room in the budget. I also have a gen 5513 dial that I’m gonna set up with a eta that I can swap into this Tudor case when I feel the need for a Rolex on the wrist lol. It’ll just have the wrong case back

Yea man! Same taste in great watches!

your a lucky man of a gen 5513 dial, We must think alike too because I've considered many of times to turn my Tudor into a vintage rokex sub lol
