1995 Tudor Submariner Blue Dial - Complete Set & Service Papers (Ref. 79190)

Free

 

Reference: 79190

Model: Submariner

Movement: Automatic

Year: 1995

Contents: Box, Papers, Booklets, Hangtag, Service Card

Case: The 39mm case is super sharp. The holes case is very clean with thick lugs and prominent chamfers. The bezel insert has perfectly faded into a light denim color.

Dial: The dial is perfect, with beautiful tritium hour markers. The Tudor Service Card confirms an overhaul of the movement and a fresh set of hands.

Strap & Buckle: The Tudor signed bracelet is in great shape.

The end of the 1990s marked a transitional period for Tudor, as they began to move away from using the Rolex name on their watches, using 'Prince Date' on dials and omitting the associated 'Oyster'. Tudor branded winding crowns and case backs were also introduced, marking the end of an era and setting the future path.

The last series of Tudor Submariners, the references 76100, 79090, and 79190, saw significant changes to the Submariner Date line, including a uni-directional bezel, sapphire crystals, and a slightly larger inner diameter of the bezel ring. Early models featured a glossy dial with 'painted' hour plots, which were replaced by luminous-filled white gold applied markers with text printed in a silver font. The word 'OYSTER' was dropped from the dial, and in 1997, polished steel bezel inserts were fitted, featuring black paint-filled numerals and markings.

The Mini-Sub was dramatically expanded into smaller size watches to include red, green, salmon, and copper colors. Tudor opted for the silver bezel on full-size watches and kept the dials blue or black. In 1998, the Hydronaut was released, and the Tudor Submariner was no longer produced.

The 79190 Submariner, a rare Tudor equivalent, takes styling cues from the rare last version of the 79190 Submariner, with the bezel insert being a dead-ringer for the 79190's. It also added a date window to the Black Bay dive watches, making them unmistakably father and son.

This specific example isn't the royal blue you often find within the reference. This configuration is more navy with a rare faded bezel. The watch is a true complete set including service papers. A real dream for vintage enthusiasts especially when looking at the condition. The chamfers and bezel on this example are what collectors look for.
