Anyone seen this Tudor chrono?

Looks fantastic, but I've never seen one like this before...

If Dan says a Tudor isn't right, then it isn't right.

That`s one hundred percent fake, Rolex never produced Tudor Cosmograph.
My wild guess is that that`s some kind of Frankenwatch, oyster(ish) case, fake dial, and correct period movement (at first glance looks to me like Valjoux 234, just like in original Tudor Monte Carlo).
Avoid by any cost.

Perhaps this should be moved to the watch out section. Now I see how everything is off with this watch!

If you read the sellers description you'll see he's very upfront about the dubious origin and makeup of the watch. Apparently it's an original mvt and case but something was done to the dial, according to Rolex themselves, as the seller claims. At least it appears he's trying at full disclosure.

Defintely franken, or all together fake! Tudor never made a watch like that.
