1997 Tudor Submariner Date ref. 79190 “Full Size 40mm, Blue Dial, Papers”

Reference 79190 which was at the end of production for Tudor branded Submariners. This model has similar characteristics to Rolex 16800 model in that it is a 40mm watch with matte, tritium dial and sapphire crystal. This reference also wears a bit slimmer than its older brother 79090, which has an acrylic crystal.

B983XXX serial number circa 1997 production with warranty papers dated in 1998 at time of purchase.

Excellent vintage condition case with thick lugs and legible numbers. Factory chamfers still remain. Original Rolex winding crown.

Dial is original, blue with nice cream patina on plots. No damage, no relume, no refinish. Crystal has a few marks from use over time. The hands were most likely replaced during past service as they briefly glow still after exposure to UV light for a few seconds, but they do match well to the dial in natual light and seem to be tritium.

Bezel insert is original with correct fat font insert and tritium pearl.

Caseback is original.

Bracelet is a rare Tudor 78500 with 11 links, diver’s extension, 380B ends, Z date code on clasp which is matching to the watch correctly. Essentially this is a Rolex 93150 bracelet

No box or papers. No service history is known. The watch runs at about -3 seconds per day with strong ampltiude.

My price is $8,500 shipped within US. I ship via FedEx w/ ParcelPro insurance so international shipments are not an issue.

Financing is available via Affirm and PayPal Credit via our website.

Bad Experience - Lunar Oyster Krlyuzh

Montres Tudor SA has designed, manufactured and marketed Tudor watches since 6 March 1946. Rolex founder Hans Wildorf conceived of the Tudor Watch Company to create a product for authorized Rolex dealers to sell that offered the reliability and dependability of a Rolex, but at a lower price. The number of Rolex watches was limited by the rate that they could product in-house Rolex movements, thus Tudor watches were originally equipped with off-the-shelf movements while using similar quality cases and bracelets.

Historically, Tudor watches have been manufactured by Montres Tudor SA using movements supplied by ETA SA. Since 2015 however, Tudor has begun to manufacture watches with in-house movements. The first model introduced with a in-house movement was the Tudor North Flag. Following this, updated versions of the Tudor Pelagos and Tudor Heritage Black Bay have also been fitted with an in-house caliber.

Tudor watches are marketed and sold in most countries around the world including the United States, Australia, Canada, India, Mexico, South Africa, many countries in Europe, South Asia, the Middle East and countries in South America, particularly Brazil, Argentina and Venezuela.
