Hello Tudor Snowflake Sub owners! Might any of you have the original literature that came with your sub or possibly period catalog/advertisements that you would be willing to scan and share with me? My Sub did not come with and would love to see.
Thank you! Brian |

I did find this online TUDOR booklet from Chuck Maddox, 1982. Still searching for something older

as to your question about which strap looks best on the blue snowflake - it would be easier to answer what strap color doesn't look good on it Dan Pierce put up some nice strap combos - only one i'd add, and i don't have a picture of one, is a highly distressed thick grey leather strap enjoy the watch - i'll check my tudor literature this evening to see what i've got that might be of use |

Were the year's inscribed? Is that common practice?
May I please have the details on this strap! I think it may look good on my Omega SMP. |

Now that looks amazing! The bracelet does look best. A nice med brown vintage leather is a close second. Everthing else looks like, you got a watch that someone sold the bracelet off for parts. I do have a few of those myself. Comes with the territory of collecting vintage watches I guess.
Ironically, I am on the (unsuccessful to date) hunt for a blue bezel insert for a similar blue Tudor snowflake! Ironically, mine came with a beautiful original bracelet, but no bezel insert. Any ideas? Tom Dallas |

The strap is a great color and comfortable too! I ordered it from Alan and www.VintageHour.com after I saw one of his blue snowflakes sporting one.

Nice combo Brian.
Took the bracelet off my blue 9411/0 and put it on the black 7016/0. Although I like the Nato it came on, this 7016/0 looks great on the bracelet IMO. |

Oh, forgot to mention the new blue leather strap is Kangaroo. ;-)
(That is for all my Aussie friends on TRF) Brisman, I like the look of the bracelet and NATO on these pieces. So nice to be able to change looks so easily. |
