It looks to be a nice original piece. They are a great watch you won't regret it. They are only going to keep going up in value

Why is it missing the magnifier on the crystal?

I had the same thought, maybe a different crystal has been fitted ?

Turkey boy, you are a funny guy!

Once you have owned all the interesting rolexes the company manufactures, like I have, you may start to look at Tudor. In fact I prefer to wear my snowflake sub than my seadweller. I find Tudors to be more interesting.

Magnifier is there but not well defined in the images and poorly magnifying and not jumping out - aftermarket crystal?

Anyone here pick this one up?

I think I would pickup a Snowflake first when chasing a Tudor (well, I did).

Haha...I was looking at the same one....Offered 2200 for it, he came back with 2350...looks like someone paid full boat for it.....If it was a snowflake I would have jumped.
