Help with Tudor 94010

[franzumb]

Hi, Im looking for your help on this tudor being offered to me at 8000 USD.

I am hoping to see your opinion on the movement. Specifically on the engravings in the rotor. The movement should be an ETA 2776 from what i've found. I examined the dial through UV, the seconds hand appears to be earlier since it shines in only slight darkness and does not have the same color as the others. The lume seems substantial on the lume plots and hands but has sort of bubble. Im wondering if the watch had water damage of some sort. The bracelet was bought separately to complement the watch. Another note is the crown that reads "Brevet" which I think corresponds to a much earlier watch but I am not sure as these are very rare. Hope you find this watch interesting.

I uploaded the images through Imgur to preserve the quality.

Thanks for any help and good luck to everyone.

You didn't mention the insert, but I think it might be a replacement. The lume on the dial looks surprisingly sloppy to me, but I'm definitely not an expert on this particular reference. Others will know if that type of damage is common. I guess the tip of the sweep hand has broken off.

Why not insert BBCODE links from Imgur so people don't have to click on a risky link.

Forgot to mention insert, looked similar when comparing to HQ Milton, and the lume in the insert faded correctly when exposed to UV. I have the same opinion on the lume, seems excessively sloppy. I am not familiar with BBCODE, if you could tell me what to do for future reference that would be helpful. Thanks.

LOTS of problems with this watch. Badly relumed, at least bad sweep hand, wrong crown, badly polished, bad insert. Terrible piece

In your Imgur thumbnail image gallery you can select a photo and you should get a pop-up window showing the image and a bunch of options of different types of links you can choose. One of them will be BBCode link, click on "copy" next to it, and then paste it into the Rolexforums window where you are making a post or reply. It will just look like a gibberish url when you paste it, but when you save the post it will show up as the image.

At least that's how I do it, there may be an easier way.

yep... not to mention case is wrong vs. dial, the mismatched bracelet + clasp.
