Tudor Rolex - Does it look right?

[chrisdt]

Been offered this Tudor Rolex and I must say I've not seen one like it before. Before I take the plunge would kind Rolex/Tudor enthusiast cast their eyes over the pics and tell me what you think....Thanks

Without looking any further the first thing I'd say is the strap, or at least the end pieces looks right.

Edit

Have you got a photo of the movement and inside the case back.

I'm not familiar with this model. I agree with @AndyGSi that the strap and end pieces look OK.

I'm not so sure about the spacing in the writing on the back. The 'V' isn't spaced correctly.

I never buy a watch unless I get some good pics of the movement.

I agree with @mikepilk that the back doesn't look right.

Edit

Dial text looks wrong also.

But could be a lot newer model but the movement and case back would answer that.

It might be OK as the writing on originals is a bit uneven. Look at the 'N' s in your pic @AndyGSi. And here's a genuine one I recently had - with 'N's are wonky too !

We need to see the movement

My issue is the shield, it looks printed on the watch in question but raised on the ones I've Googled.

It was more the punched text as opposed to the detail I was looking at but I see what you're saying.

If it is genuine then it's going to be late 70s at the earliest.

Edit

I was 50/50 until seeing this which now makes me believe it's a fake.

Key point to me are markers are too far from edge of dial.

Thanks guys for your help.If I can get a pic of the movement I will post it but the guy has no tool to remove the case back and it's a distance purchase so possibly too much cash to risk it...
