High miles, ridden hard, and put away wet. Nice project, already approaching value less money needed to fix

A nice simple project but ......

Easy to source a full bezel set - never cheap though.

Not so easy to find hands to match those orange - brown plots and it'll never be a beauty queen..

I wouldn't pay much more than it's current bid of $1,050 ..... but I'm pickin' others will

Could be cheaper though some might like the project aspect.

Yip. Derek's watch at his current price is AOK ...

Nicely patina'd example of an iconic Tudor Sub, case looks ok and a very sexy insert.
And Derek is a great fella, very easy to deal with.

Here's a wrist shot of a non-Snowflake with similar patina to Derek's current offering.
And a Snowflake waiting for a service - older brother of the eBay project perhaps ?
