Which is which?

Man, my posts have been dying a horrible death lately. Maybe need to go back to cold chili enlightenment.

I'm going with #2 as well.

redshirt1957 · 31 January 2009, 11:38 AM

Okay, you guys give me a why.

gmt 16750 · 31 January 2009, 07:43 PM

Because your 1680 wears a 93150...?
and until recently every Tudor Sub had a folded link bracelet (you can get a solid link 78500 [think that's the right ref.] for a Tudor now) but I cant recall your Tudor wearing one.
Both v. nice watches anyhow.

I think Neil is correct.

Trurolexer · 31 January 2009, 10:31 PM

swatty · 31 January 2009, 10:42 PM

I won't mind which one you send me , either one is fine , Thanks Bubba

JimSnyder · 31 January 2009, 10:52 PM

I agree too , Jim

JimSnyder · 31 January 2009, 11:24 PM

I will add besides the folded link bracelet the bezal in pic 1 looks more worn. And the lume dot on pic 2 looks white and that is the way I rememder your 1680

I don't think your 9411/0 had a lume dot

I could be wrong

6 of one, half dozen of the other.

I haven't got a clue!!!!

What I will say is .....

I need a cuddle!

Lowflight · 1 February 2009, 12:51 AM

The reason I went with #2 is because the crystal on the first one is different than any of the three variations I have seen on 1680. Plus, the upturn of the bezel looks different.

BTW, I have a 9315 folded link bracelet on my 5.2 million 1680

dkpw · 1 February 2009, 01:36 AM

Number 2 - what ever one it is - I think it's the 1680 - has the Rolex crown at exactly the same angle as my Sub.

Great side views!

stevemulholland3 · 1 February 2009, 04:14 AM

well I will tell you one clue I can see..many tudor cases seem to have two different sized thickness of the crown guards..I am not sure why,but I do know they came from the factory this way(some say that rolex sent all of their cases that did not pass the quality standards tests to tudor to use with their subs,<just hear-say>) and your picture number 1 seems to show the same phenomenon in the thickness of the crown guards..or its just a trick of photography...so do tell joe..

therolexguy · 1 February 2009, 04:25 AM

#2 definately a 1680. Don't know the Tudor line as well.

God eye Steve. I didn't notice that. A lot of Tudors do have that

Cheater! Seems I bought both from you.

Yes, the first one is the Tudor and the second one is the 1680. If I would have removed the bands and rotated the bezel so you could not see the peal, the only difference is the crown guards. I must say that the members here have a memory I never had and pay attention to detail. I am just amazed at you guys.

unclesallie · 1 February 2009, 09:37 AM

i knew the answer all along, was just waiting to see if you guys knew too!

NOT~!
