7922?
Hi,
are you sure it is a 7922? looks like a 7924 to me, big crown, brevet, 200m dial!?
the 7922 is a small crown, 100m!...
The experts will confirm, Jeff? Nico?...
in that case, that's even more good news for you in terms of value, fantastic watch to get!
the ref number should be written in the case back and between the lugs.

I wanted to share my good experience on a Tudor 7922 I got from my grandpa, in quite bad shape: DrStrong confirmed I should go to meet the guy. here is the result: After months looking for someone who could help me, I found this web site: xxxxxxx thanks a...

Ah shit!...
sorry, this is complicated if they even mix between the ref numbers!...so what's the difference with the 7924, did this come before? I'm puzzled! must be even rarer than a 7924 no?
tropic 16 for both versions?
by the way, do you known if both versions of the 7922 (small and big crown) have a tropic 16 as plexi? thanks
it is a 7922 BC, no doubt
it is a 7922 Big Crown. 7922 between the lugs, brevet written on the crown, serial starts with 307 (from Rolex range), 200m
we learn every day!...
so I will go to bed less stupid tonight!...mea culpa! If it is a 307 XXX it would suggest it came after the 7924???...
Here's some reading for you
I have tried to gather some informations here a while ago rolex.watchprosite.com
Great reading Jeff!
will study this WE. Thanks very much, looks like great info and beautiful pictures! Matt
Hi Charles. I had to edit your post as per our forum rules.
As we are not allowed to post links on commercial websites. I know Jerome, he's a friend of mine, and yes he does a great job. Of course you're allowed to say how happy you are, which doesn't surprise me, coming from him. You have a fantastic watch, which...

Hi Nicolas, sorry, I did not know about the rules. I wanted to make some advertisement from him, I am so happy about the job. I removed the steel bracelet and put a NATO instead. The steel already almost erased the ref and serial. I can hardly read the se...
I love the double Ref 7922 / 6538 engraved in the case back.
I will keep you updated when a GTG comes at the horizon. No worries. Best. And thanks for the pictures. Nicolas.
A watch to be proud of; coming from your Grandfather!
To me. this would be my grail. To be treasured above all others.
That would be an excellent choice, Fernando.
A few are spotting, from time to time... Getting an authentic one is a possible target. Not as expensive as a Rolex BC, but not less desirable. I know where some are hiding... Best, Nicolas.
I mean..
if my grandfather passed it on to me Nicolas. Or any watch that has been passed down from family members and has been given to me with love. I will be its faithfull guardian to be passed along to the next family member when the time comes. The thing with ...
Wise precaution. I totally agree.
Well, a watch from Jack the Ripper, that may be cool! Best, Nicolas.
Please, do tell!!!
Knowing where those lovely and dangerous creatures hide! Well, I say dangerous because tudor 7922 and 7924 are infested with THE VIRUS. It's like rabies, I'm already salivating, he he. Amigo mío, cuando tenga los fondos, promete que conpartirás ese conoci...
Hola René....
The 7924 is one of my top 3 Vintage Rolex, with the Pussy Galore and the Explo I 6610, in my current collection. Would love to add a 7922. In fact, I targeted a very nice one, but dealing with its owner is another story. Highly addictive watches, for sure...
A great restauration result.
I like it even more as it is a hand me down and that your have taken very good care of it. Best regards, George
Congrats for the restoration job !
Jerome in paris is a real expert concerning these watches, I knew he would be able to help. Concerning the Tudor BC's...well...I love them ;-)...
Thanks Jeff
Thanks for confirming me that I should go and see him. I am just surprised when people are looking for Rolex parts, he's not mentionned. Lot of people told me it would be nearly impossible to find the missing parts and if so for a lot of money. He had eve...
