Does anyone know the value of a Vintage Stainless Steel Rolex Tudor Oyster with the following description?:

This is a like new Vintage Rolex Tudor Oyster Watch. The watch is manual wind and keeps excellent time. The dial has been expertly refinished in an awesome Black California Dial marked Rolex Oyster with magnificent Mercedes Hands and sweeping second hand. The hands and numbers are luminous so they glow in the dark. The case has been polished and shines like new. The band is an aftermarket Oyster band with a Rolex branded buckle and also looks new. The watch is 34mm without crown and 41mm from lug to lug. The inside of back cover is marked Montres Tudor SA Switzerland Patented Stainless Steel. The movement is marked Montres Tudor SA Geneva Swiss Seventeen 17 Jewels Unadjusted.

The seller says it was manufactured sometime btwn. 1940-1969.

Thanks alot!

I'm not sure. It sounds like it's trying to be something that it isn't. A Rolex Bubble back "California dial" style refinish, in a simple wind up Tudor. I'd look elsewhere for either an original Tudor or a real Rolex Bubble back or just pay something really low for it, like less than $250.
