Tudor Sub MN.....I finally found one!!!!

 
By: Ross Povey : January 26th, 2012-11:46
I recently managed to acquire a watch which, for me, has been a truly exciting addition to my small collection. For a couple of years I have been looking for a Marine Nationale issued Tudor Submariner; I finally found it!! A Tudor Submariner reference 940...  

Great catch

Nice historic piece and documented. Goes to prove that staying focused on your goals you can achieve them. Bravo Wear it in good health.

I can understand your love for these MNs...

Here is my Trio, well, should say was, as the 7016 has disappeared... 7924 / 7016 / 5513... All MNs: It doesn't matter the dial is snowflake, or diamond... The blue dials just rock! Congrats on your new catch, this is a superb and great one. Best, Nicolas...  

Really lovely, Ross. More so satisfying having done your own

Great find Ross

Great find with with the good dial for that year. I also love them so much. On the wrist, it"s not a watch but a killer!! Wear it in good health. Mine is from 1976. Guillaume...  

That is a superb specimen, Guillaume.

... Ross, Amanico and Guillaume, those are wonderful pieces, which fire the flame of desire in me! Have been looking for a nice Tudor Sub for sometime. I´m sure it won´t be a historical piece like those beauties you are showing here. But I´ll love it anyw... 

Well, these are ( at the exception of the big crown ) not too hard to find

 
By: amanico : January 27th, 2012-05:41
And not too expensive to get... Always try to find a complete one ( I mean with the decom papers ). Best, Nicolas

You mean the Big Crown or any Sub?

How come they never got decommission? Strange. What's the story? Regards Tyler

Tudor MN's in general

 
By: DrStrong : January 28th, 2012-13:16
most of these watches were destroyed, kept by the divers, etc....but very few of them were decomissioned and sold with official decom papers.

You have now a new year goal. :)

 
By: TdotBean : January 27th, 2012-07:55
You just have to pick which reference you like best. Without marking 7922, 7924 With marking and decom paper 7928, 7016, 7016/0, 94010 Have you read the great article about Tudor M.N. by our Dr. Strong? Here the link rolex.watchprosite.com A MN with decom... 

Thank you Tyler!!... I know now were to aim my sights!
