Real 7928
281211430828 - love it even with service Dial - don't love how they all have the same sweet patina. Bad insert
121210568652 - some concerns but legit but over priced (just my opinion)
111193322982 - like
290963740686


Real 9411/9410
261339676811
121220111276 Crusty Goodness
360792831445 BOING!
271313743170 - Photos have me on fence leaning legit
171171980345 - Photos have me on fence leaning legit
111193322982 - like
271243222919 - nice

Full or Partial Fake 7016 / 7021
261337873424 - crown guards are wrong or 7016
Full or Partial Fake 7928
141126415007
171058391230 - best 7016 service dial ever! (Ok, that may be the regular dial as they were in a small window IIRC)

Full or Partial Fake 9411/9410
131052742917 - just awful
28121331888 Dial maybe service - not sure - hands are fugly - might be whole thing is faked - not sure on CGs
370950768646 bad dial for starters - case looks OK, bezel is wrong
171109948856 - horrible dial - bad case polish as well
281123707022 - bad dial - rest might be OK for Pointy Crown Guard 7528/7016 (wrong hands)

Fake Parts:

Dial:
161161037817
261337908916
Admitted refinished

271167823135
271167817423

My Dad was in Switzerland back in 1977. He brought me this back. I was only 11 years old! It has been in my safe since 1989.

I started wearing it again about two weeks ago. Keeps perfect time. Tritium still glows a bit... not great but still glowing! In love with my Tudor Snowflake again!

hey all... as a newbie i can post links but does anyone own a 7016 - transitional model with the merc hands?
Someone from work is offering me one, but after reading this forum i think the "Swiss" is a bit small between the lines (i.e. it doesn touch them on either side) so wondering if it is a fake one.

Any assistance would be great

I can tell you if a 7016 dial is legit are not, as long as you post a link to the watch or a decent photo. Yes, SWISS does not reach the lines, but it is hard to be certain what you mean without photos.

Yep - all no good. Oysterfisher was spot on.

Crown looks bad, insert bad, hands suspect, Crown Guards look too big.

Would need more and better photos to determine if it is all fake or just mostly fake.
