Tudor parts availability

[foxpembroke2]

I have a ladies mini sub Tudor 26 mm and have lost the bezel and chipped the crystal. Rolex NY wants 3 times what the watch is worth or to sell a new watch. Anyone know where I can get parts for a watch like this affordably or over the internet? Face and bezel are blue. Watch is SS.

I've had my wife's Tudor repaired at the Rolex service center for a crystal about 2 years ago. They do require and charge for an overhaul if it hasn't been serviced in the past two years according to their records. The service was only $375+tax and I think like $48 for the crystal. We opted not to have the peeling dial replaced because all they had were "service" replacements. It was less then $500. We later had the dial replaced when we found one at retired rolex watchmaker that opened his own shop. It may have been refinished as he offered us a refinish on the original. It was like $100 parts, refinish and labor total. So you may want to check around your area for an independent watchmaker. Be prepared to make many calls and many trips. First call to see if they will work on it and have a source for parts. Then they will always insist you come in with the watch so they can see, feel and touch it to give you an estimate.

Try to find a local watchmaker with a Rolex parts account.
