Rolex

This is the end of a crazy week, my friends.

I traded one of my watches for several I hunted for a long time.

Among them, I fell on this piece, a Tudor Submariner Marine Nationale from 1982.





As you know, there were 2 versions of this 94110 Tudor, one coming with snow flakes indexes, and the other, this one, with triangular indexes at 3 / 6 / 9 / 12.

Both of these dials are lovely, and atypic.

If the Snow flakes is more original, the triangular indexes are very cool, too.

They both share a superb blue dial, and a matching bezel.





The thick Submariner case, the big crown, and the engraved case back give strength to this Bad Boy's Watch



This was a revelation, and a new entry in my wish list.

Should I get it, or go to another of my long awaited watch?

Epilogue today!



Best,

Nicolas

... watch. What is it btw?? )

K.

Can't speak about it, already, as I'm a bit superstitious, I'm afraid to confess...

I'm trying to find a Tudor MN with the Decommission Paper, by the way.

I found one, but if I can go on my long awaited watch, I prefer.

To be clear, I fell in love with this Military Tudor, which has a big PRO for a Military watch Its relative affordability.

Stay tuned!



Best,

Nicolas

This 94110 is a great watch, which its value, thanks to God, not reaches the sky. A great hunt for a diver´s collector.

I must admit that I prefer the snowflake version, but I must admit too that this blue dial must be awesome in the flesh. And yours is in a great condition.

A great hunt, indeed.

Welcome to the Tudor subs world, my friend!

Nicolas

Emilio

an absolute beauty. To find one in good condition like this can be quite difficult. You did a very good job my friend.

Congrats

And the deal is done...

I think you gonna love this latest...

As for the Tudor MN, I locked another one with the Decommision Paper, and with a nicer patina.

Will ba albe, with a bit of luck, to get it at the end of this year...

Best, my friend.

Nicolas

I m sure you will surprise all of us with your long awaited watch

Either way, I think the blue tudor subs are really cool and not insanely expensive as some Rolex' are. Hope you will manage to get the Tudor aswell.

Cheers
Steven

I couldn't pass on my long awaited watch, as it is in great condition with a stunning lacquered dial.

You know this feeling, when you know that it is THE watch you were waiting for.

Will post some pics as soon as the light is good enough...

The Tudor MN can wait, I know I will easily find one with paper.

I still have so many Vintage Rolex to hunt...



Best,

Nicolas

my turn is this coming wednesday... long awaited dream hopefully coming through

Another arab dial????

You're a killer, my friend.

Will try to take pics of my latest addition today, if the light conditions allow it...

Best,

Nicolas

bernhard

As I found another badly hunted watch right which is on my wrist as I'm typing these words...

I think you will love it!



As for the MN, I will soon have a complete one...

Best!

Nicolas

you are the Don Juan of vintage Rolex ;-)

By you!



Aaah, by the way, I met a guy this afternoon who has heard about your DRSD Comex...

He was offered this watch some weeks ago.

Best,

Nicolas

I know that the existence of the Comex had been mentioned to your friend.

But when the diver handled me the watch and I had to remove an incredible amount of dirt to be able to read the serial number and see what the dial looked like...I knew that the watch had never been offered ;-)

Sometimes you just have to be in the right place at the right time.

And will the complete one be a Snowflake one... as they are the best!!!!

Can't wait to see the other one...

I would say that the Snowflakes has my slight preferrence, but a very slight one...

As per my latest catch, I'm sure you will love it!

Best,

And thanks, my friend.

Nicolas

... you're going completely bezerk now Nicolas ... your collection will never have and end now... .

The way this stunning blue dial matches the strap is really cool .. it gives me a true blue feeling .

Best,

The Bim

And this one will join, one of these wees, my collection.

But I have another great catch to share...



Best, my friend.

Nicolas

The watch is in superB condition...Congrats...

Really BIG catch...

Best

Chung

As I've picked something really exciting...

I had to delay this MN, and luckily, I may lock one with the Decommission Paper...

Best, my friend.

Nicolas

my new lamp which would be a perfect match! You are BAD, Nicolas, BAD! Cheers Luc

I love this blue masterpiece.

As for the MN, this is another story, my friend.

They are not tha hard to catch, affordable, and with a strong History behind.

Now, you have to love the Blue dial...

But it is an original way to see the traditional Sub, IMO.

Best,

Nicolas

you are missing a wristshot my friend.... So, with your permission, here is yours but with a more suiting strap in my opinion....

A great vintage...enjoy it Cheers

As I went on another choice...

Which is on my wrist, by the way...



Best,

Nicolas
