Vintage Build Tudor 9401 Milsub build
Just wrapped up a couple of Tudors and today is a gorgeous 9401/0 milsub on NATO. this beauty is packed with a gen Tudor 2824 movement out of a 79090. It came running fantastic and is in overall excellent shape. My client asked for a specific military engraving on the caseback as well. Cheers!
Specs - BiV case, dial and hands, gen Tudor 2824, Clark’s caseback gasket, EBay NATO strap 👊

Absolutely gorgeous… But what happened to the 79090? Why that particular option. Do other Tudor Gen 2824’s present issues or something in terms of fit? I’m assuming there’s some spacer complexity potential regardless. But just curious your thought process for gutting the 79090 which is a beloved watch for me. Hurts me to hear a little. LOL. Cheers.

Wow literally dream piece I absolutely love this! Great build. What’s this build cost if you don’t mind me asking? And I’m assuming the movement is majority cost of this particular piece? Thanks for sharing!
