    You are a superb craftsman !! I'm so happy to find your site. I hope to eventually send my beloved 50s 7903 Tudor oyster for a servicing that it so deserves...thanks from Lance in New Zealand.

    I had a chance to buy one of these about 10 years ago but passed. Soon after an El Primero that I wanted came and I bought that.
    These Tudor dials have gone up in price but watch collecting is not about that.

      You should buy the watch speak to you and not for the value. I prefer as well an el primero over this so I understand your choice

    Tres bien... Im a Tudor fan and this one is great looking after your service. Interesting that that spring broke..- and that replacement parts are relatively easy to find. I noticed you didn't tape or mention the greasing of the pallet jewels. Presumed it was done.. Such a great job on the service, as usual. Merci....

    Another nice restoration. It seemed as though the hands were missing any lume, There is lume on the hour markers. Do you intend to lume these hands?

  • @csachevauxsansabri2612
    @csachevauxsansabri2612 Год назад +1

    It's a nice mouvement, what surprised me and this is probably because my personal preference, the mouvement hasn't got a hacking function. The dial is absolutely stunning and wow the hour hands, they are lovely. Hold on you are telling me Tudor/Rolex is using an outsourced of the shelf ETA mouvement? Oh yes the Black Bays used an ERA to didn't they and are in fact more expensive the the newer once with the in house movements.

      @@FrenchWatchCollector Well Rolex is Tudor and Tudor is Rolex. When I called them the other day for a sponsorship for a Tombola I am planning this year for our Charity, they gave me the same email address and I requested a sponsorship from each of them separately but only got one response back so they are defenerey one and the same. I don't know but I wonder if Tudor is Rolexes Comunite Urban because Rolex is a charity and Tudor a business. Although both are owned by Wilsdorf

    Great work! That Tudor is gorgeous! Any reason why at 14:22 where you cut to use the staking tool it's just frames of your pad and hammering in the background? Doesn't cut back until you are smoothing the hole.

    Great review, by the way, I find some tudor big rose showing [T swiss T] at 6 o'clock area, since both indexs and hands do not find tritium area, it seems [T] doesn`t mean tritium, do you know what this [ T] mean? Thx!

    • @FrenchWatchCollector
      @FrenchWatchCollector  Год назад +1

      Normally like you said it is tritium. It might be on the dial because they made one dial for different combo and some are without lume
