Hey folks... I have been offered to chance to add this vintage 7016 to my collection.... I dont know the providence of the watch so just unsure if it's what it appears to be. Any experts out there?

I'm not into swiss watches at all. If I were tho, a nice vintage Tudor with the rose emblem below the 12 would be what I'd want.
Can anyone tell me why Tudor changed to the current emblem?
What are your concerns?
really it just potential looks to be in too good a condition. Perhaps new hands and bezel insert... which would be okay. I just know these watches were faked a bit. I am not an expert on them, and I think this model was a transitional one from 1969... so, some of those models got the 1st snow flake handset etc and this one was almost only around for a year or so.
Some folks have said to look at the curve of the writing of "self winding"... others say the T Swiss T writing. I just dont know tbh
the case back, and movement are all correct from what i have seen too
Not at all an expert and I know there is variation, but I haven’t seen one where Oyster Prince was hyphenated.

I passed on it... just wasn't 100% confident
