    Hi All,
    NOW SOLD - thanks to OF for the facility.
    For your consideration I have for sale a very nice Tudor ‘Date+Day’ Jumbo.
    Ref 7017/0, serial number 69**** indicates that it’s from 1969.
    The ‘Jumbo’ designation references the 38mm (without crown) case size with 20mm lugs.
    Looks great on the wrist compared to its 36mm Rolex counterpart.
    This watch is in remarkable condition for its age.
    The case is almost certainly unpolished with sharp bevels, edges and facets, the lug holes are sharp edged.
    Clearly it’s been a ‘wearer’ in the past, so It has a few minor scratches and there are a couple of minor marks on the plastic crystal.
    There is a small ‘ding’ on the rear of the 1 o’clock lug and slight wear marks from the bracelet end links - but as these are on the back of the watch they are totally invisible when worn.
    The inside lug and caseback engravings are complete and clear.
    The silver dial is impeccable with onyx inserts on the hour markers. All the Tritium hour dots are in place with no discolouration (rare).
    The tritium glows brightly under a UV light but dies rapidly (correct for this vintage).
    Please note that this is the sought after early itineration of the dial with the 1/5 second markers and the elegant long hour marker plots.
    Has a Spanish language day wheel.
    The watch has been rarely worn whilst in my 4 year ownership, it has always run well and kept great time with very good power reserve.
    The day and date click over at exactly midnight and the crown screws down smoothly.
    My watchmaker checked and oiled the watch around a month ago.
    The watch comes on a nice stitched brown strap.
    Overall, a lovely classic daily wearer watch with great ‘wrist presence’.
    I’d like to see UK £2500 NOW A BARGAIN UK £2250. FURTHER REDUCED TO UK £2150 (to include insured shipping).
    Please check the photos as they represent the majority of the description.
    Thanks for looking and thanks to OF for the facility.
    Please PM to discuss further.
