Description: Wonderful blue Tudor Submariner Date from the last series.
The case is in great and unpolished condition. It shows the typical case finish of the late classic Tudor Submariner. It is slightly rounder, wider and makes the case appear significantly larger and gives the watch more presence on the wrist. There are minor signs of wear, but no deep scratches, dents or anything like that.
The blue Submariner Date dial is in perfect condition with no weaknesses. It is one of the last watches with tritium lume and has acquired a great creamy patina. The hands are also in perfect condition with a matching patina to the dial.
The bezel is wonderfully sharp and the blue inlay shows only minor signs of wear.
This great blue Tudor SUB will delight its new owner as a great full set. The watch has been sold on June 12, 1998 by Fung Leung Kee Watch Co. in Hong Kong (LC 400). The set is really cool including the original hangtag with serial number, booklet and original box.
Since this is one of the last classic Tudors to be produced, this 79190 is already equipped with the solid Oyster bracelet. Just as the watch, the bracelet is in great condition, unpolished and with clasp code Z4 for April 1997, it is the original bracelet for the watch.
Conclusion: I love blue Tudor Subs and this watch impresses with its great condition and great scope of delivery.
