Blue Tudor Snowflake 7021/0 opinions and help

Team,
I would like to get everyone's opinion on this watch. This is a 7021/0 73X,XXX serial that comes with no papers and no bracelet.

I would like to get a bracelet for this watch and would like it to be correct to what the watch originally had. Can someone tell me please what bracelet and end links this watch should have?

Also I would like everyone's opinion on the watch. I know the 7021/0 had issues with the dials and "bubbles" but this one seems to be very clean. Also I would like everyone's opinion on insert, crown, case back, etc.

http://www.rolexforums.com/showthrea...ight=snowflake


really appreciate it.

regards
JFO

Endlinks are 280s or 380s. Band 7836, 9315 or more modern 78360, 93150. Stunning watch you linked

Hey bud! Good to see you here. It's nice looking watch but it has a domed crystal installed. But many like the dome look....

That's a beautiful looking SF. That said it looks black to me, even the insert looks faded grey. Could b my phone? 🤔


I blame it on the autoconnect.

Great looking piece. Unsure if the dial has been changed or not as I have not seen many black 7021s with original dials to have a pulse on what should be there. That said, that is one of the nicest black 7021s I have seen.

Yes buddy I am here too, though I rarely come in here anymore. The watch comes with both the domed crystal and the top hat which is the original for the watch!

wow.

I think it is an original blue dial. I have one that also looks nearly black (but mine has blisters). This looks to have been stored a long time but the insert is faded and the case has corrosion on the back so it was worn... Possibly only polished once in its life, just before pictures were taken

Good luck!

pics above help? I am trying to see if someone can tell me a bit more about the watch just from pics. I think is a great example, but i did hear that 7021/0 dials had issues and wondering if someone can tell if this is a service dial or not.

what about the rest of the watch? Case, hands, crown, etc.

thanks!
