It is a rep.
And the bracelet is stamped 18k, but you state in the description that the gold is 14k. So what is it then?
The other thing is the gold issue. Is the bezel, crown and mid links really solid gold.
If you say so, that's fine, but for some of us, who would buy these TT Tudors, you would have to prove it beyond any doubt.

If everything is stated about the gold is true, $350 would be the most you could get away with selling these. At least that's what I would be willing to pay...

look at the movement, if it is stamped 2836 it is a rep,

Well.. the "OG POFY DESN" should be the dead giveaway. Kind of like MBW's POLEX or "GENEDA SCHINERLAND". Rolex/Tudor don't have POFY designs. Sorry.

Hope you did not buy it as a gen :twisted:

Yep, the OG POFY DESN did it for me, but the rotor doesn't look right, either... or the case back for that matter.

Looks like a decent rep... and nice looking watch (if you're into DateJust & bling style). Personally, I have never liked any dressy Rolexes/Tudors myself (DJ, DD, Cellini, YM, etc)

With ETA the value should be around $150 - $180.

you know, looking at this watch blindly, i have no idea if its gen or rep. I have not enough experience to tell!

the movement is decorated nicely - and if no one pointed out the OG POFY DESN crap, then i wouldn't ahve second guess it.

is it lightweight in hand? sharp edges anywhere? that's my only way of telling... otherwise, who'd a know?

The funny thing is that my all steel rep also has the 18K stamped on the bracelet :)

I suppose I can pass it as white gold :lol:

As a rep, I would value it at $150-200. Basically, whatever someone is willing to pay for it. But I haven't seen any Tudor Datejust type reps, so it is unusual. I would assume the diamonds aren't real and the gold is plated.

Gents' watches with diamonds on the dial aren't usually very good sellers. Find a good rep of the vintage Tudor Submariner and you'll have a winner.

PS: This is not the first Tudor Prince rep. PureTime has very nice one in his photo gallery.
