Been meaning to post this. Tudor Snowflake content...

Post by erikclabaugh » Wed Nov 18, 2015 4:17 pm

Been meaning to post more over here, but haven't had a chance. Just picked this one up recently. Been wanting a snowflake since I saw the one my buddy Alex brought to an Atlanta Watchfam meet-up (and was later owned by RockmasterMike).

Anyway, this is my new baby.

Cheers
Erik

Agreed. The new blue is a bit "in your face" but I don't know if it is honestly any crazier than the blue on the Rolex "Smurf"

Wouldn't think of getting her wet without a pressure test... Much like the bride before we consummated things.

Ive had many tudor subs, i always got them serviced right away. if you noticed a lot of them have a rust ring around the edge of plexi. its usually overlooked but a good service, cleaning and new crystal takes care of it.

Good to know. Also need some new end links as these are squashed. Any recommendations for places to look?

can't you just spread the endlinks back out?

Yeah, but would like to have backup in case I mangle them...
