Vintage Watch Condition Examination:
This Tudor Submariner is in overall honest, vintage condition with wear consistent with age. The case is strong with normal signs of wear; the bevels on the lugs are visible. The "Long 5" bezel ring has remained sharp and the bezel insert has aged with an attractive look with a gradient fade throughout; the pip at the 12 o'clock is missing. The watch has retained its correct crown (non trip-lock without three dots). The dial has developed a unique and consistent patina throughout, almost a cow-like/ spotted print. The lume on the dial and in the hands has developed patina and have aged to an attractive sandy color. The rivet Oyster bracelet is in good condition with normal signs of wear and some stretch between the links.
Description: Tudor Oyster Prince 7928
The reference 7928 was introduced in 1959. Here we have a beautiful Tudor Submariner from circa 1965. This example has aged nicely over the years and has taken on an interesting and unique patina. From the bezel to the dial, you won't find another one exactly like this one.
This watch has a few stand out features that are worth mentioning. First off this is of the chapter ring variation which is always a treat to come across; we love the combination of the gilt colored chapter ring with the silver text. The dial has the "self-winding" is in an upward arch and collectors refer to this as a "smiley." Tudor used this detail in some of the modern Black Bay watches so its nice to see the history of this detail. The dial also features a "Rose" logo which is something Tudor stopped doing around 1969 when they went to the shield logo.
This watch comes from the original owner who wore and enjoyed it for many years! Overall this is a great and honest example of a vintage Tudor Submariner that is oozing with character!
