Is this Tudor 72033 Real or Fake? Help for a newb?

[lazypolarbears]

Hi,

I bought a Tudor 72033 for my brother (who wears a damn timex) and was wondering if the sellers pics are of a real or fake one.

Normally with someone with 1300+ feedback @ 100% on ebay, I wouldn't be concerned. BUT, he's located in HONG KONG (the fake everything capital of the world).

Attaching some pics before I pay. Any opinions? Does it look right? Sapphire crystal should be on the 1997 B6XXXXX 72033 model, correct?

Thanks!

its fine, and hong kong is also the vintage rolex capital pretty much. many vintage tudors come out of there! any pics of the dial though? i can check and make sure it hasn't been redialed

Here are some front pics...

So you're saying it's OK to buy a vintage Rolex/Tudor out of Hong Kong? Maybe I was under the wrong impression..

Hi TRF,

I'm about to blow $1k on this watch... can anyone else confirm that it's real, despite being shipped from Hong Kong? It looks consistent with Tudors I've seen in the past...

Seller gave me bad pictures but I'm pretty sure its real, can anyone confirm?

Thanks so much in advance! Cheers!

Do you really want to get a 32mm watch for an adult?

I'm 5" 5' and 21 years old LOL, and so is my bro.
