The Tudor Submariner ref. 79090 marks the final chapter of acrylic‑crystal Tudor Subs, delivered from 1989, in a 40mm case waterproof to 200 metres. It preserves the matte dial and tritium plots of its predecessors, now adorned with classic Submariner‑style triangular indices at 6 and 9, plus Mercedes hands, delivering a subtle yet definitive shift in identity.
Collectors know the tactile appeal of that deep bidirectional bezel: refined grip, fluid turn, unapologetically vintage, no modern ratchet here.
The ivory‑toned tritium matched with lightly oxidised handset lume speaks volumes of patina done right. It even retains its original folded‑link Oyster bracelet with Fliplock extension, a rare survivor.
