Haven't worn my 5512 in a while (3.7 million), and I swear the tritium is getting more lemony every time I take it out of the box, especially if the sun hits it the right way ... like this morning!

Very very rare. Some would say mythical.

Like an albino GMT or white gold 6265.

Sure. I.68 thru third III.68 produced Tudor 7016 had a unique case shape (cough Montres Tudor THIS should be your Heritage inspiration, cough) that was unique to Rolex or Tudor. These watches have the 7528 stamped in the caseback.

Not a full pointed crown, but as you can see still far different than the later (and earlier for 45 years) Rounded Crown Guard with the droopping chin.

Lovely, didn’t knew that too. Looks a little like a polished 1675 at the crownguards from the sideview. Thanks for clarifying!

Great, thanks for that shot!
Short production period, wow.

Yet - it is most like a 1675 CGs, ever so slightly thinner case than the 7928.

I would have much preferred Tudor reach back to THAT case for sake of history than the PO1 THING they did release at Basel. Put that bezel and dial in the SPCG case and it would have been a hit.

Yup - looks like 1675 - I thought the same.
Probably. The newer cases are too hefty IMO - Rolex and Tudor.
