Wow! Frankenwatch

You certainly don't see one of these everyday.

At least the seller is honest.

Love the way "hybrid" has become the new tag line for Faked.
Also have seen guys using " homage" too.

So he's selling a "Tudor" with NO genuine Tudor parts? Maybe the dial, but it is a repaint, probably from India or China. How dowes one get away with selling a Tudor with NO Tudor parts and claim : "The result is a watch with same quality and styling of this vintage Rolex Tudor MILSUBS that sell for over $4000!"?

The seller says he has been collecting parts for many years...
Most of the parts are aftermarket...
Grady, you found the only collector of aftermarket parts in the world!
This POS is selling for $1380...
