This Tudor seems legit, however....

....what caught my attention was the model number. Shouldn't this 79270p actually have Tudor case back and crown, and the other dial, the Prince date one? Is this one an original? Correct me if I'm wrong, please.

Earlier tudor did use rolex crown and rolex case back.

For tudor chrono, it changed to tudor crown and tudor case back in around 1997 which corresponds to serial numbers of around B95xxxx. According to what the seller stated the serial number is B91xxxx, so it is ok.

However, I think the dial for B91 serial should be "prince date" and "T SWISS MADE T" instead of "oysterdate".

The band is an aftermarket band, non-original, which the seller mentions if you read thru the complete auction listing.

Thanks guys. I'm interested, but want to make sure I don't get ripped off.
