The reference 7928 was introduced in 1959. Here we have a beautiful Tudor Submariner from circa 1965. This example has a few stand out features that are worth mentioning. First off, we love the honest condition - every scratch tells a story that we wish we knew! This 7928 has the chapter ring 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. The "Long 5" bezel has faded throughout and gives the watch a distinct look; in some lights it can have hints of lavender which is something we have seen before.  From the bezel to the dial, you won't find another one exactly like this one. If you are in the market for a Tudor Submariner with character, this is worth considering Shop Tudor Submariner Collection
