Tudor Submariner 94010

Tudor Submariner Snowflake 94010

Debuting just a year after the iconic Rolex Submariner in 1954, the Tudor Prince Submariner shares an incredible array of similarities to its sibling such as an entirely Rolex-made construction. While Rolex originally ran three references of Submariners from the get-go, Tudor only released one. With its no-frills attitude to watchmaking, Tudor’s tactic of using third-party sourced movements to power their Submariner proved to be popular as militaries around the globe like the French, the US, South African, Italian, and more all used the Tudor Submariner at some point for their divers and Navy. In 1975 the ref. 94010 was released with a new generation of movement, the ETA cal. 2776 and the cal. 2784, which featured the date. Offered in either blue or black, the ref. 94010 was the last Submariner to feature the iconic Snowflake dial which has become one of Tudor’s most defining characteristics as different dials were issued in the 1980s and became prevalent throughout the collection until its discontinuation sometime later. Today, the Tudor Submariner lives on through the Black Bay collection, but there's nothing quite like the original. Combining its square hour markers with its unique square-shaped hour hand, the ref. 94010 was the last of the Tudor Submariner's to have earned the "Snowflake dial" designation. Built by Rolex, the Tudor Submariner, like so many other Tudor models from the time, features a plethora of Rolex signed parts like its crown, caseback, and bracelet clasp. This example's caseback also features an engraving still clearly visible across its center.
