Tudor Submariner 7928 Gilt Chaper Ring Dial Pointed Guards With Papers

Tracing its origins to 1954, the Tudor Submariner was released as a cost-effective counterpart to its eponymous Rolex sibling. Blending Rolex-quality externals with an off-the-shelf movement to cut production, Tudor’s Submariner proved to be incredibly robust and popular. Released in 1959, the ref. 7928 is perhaps the most iconic Tudor Submariner as it had the longest production run; extending until 1968, and being the reference that introduced crown guards to the collection. Used across numerous militaries due to its quality and cost-effective nature, the Tudor Submariner has a long and storied history as a watch that has been there and done it all as it was intended. Offered here our example boasts a well-preserved black aluminum bezel, a stunning black dial with aged painted luminous indices and matching luminescent hands that highlight the ref. 7928’s age and heritage.
