What an exceptional specimen dear Nicolas! Just as we love them! It`s incredible that a military watch can suurvive with those super sharp bevel lugs and overall condition.
Congrats to its owner and thank you so much for sharing with us. A gift for our eyes! Abrazos amigo mio! Abel
Tudor Marine Nationale MN 76 94010.
Some photos of a superb specimen belonging to one of my good friends. The patina, the dial, these beveled lugs, and the History behind this watch... Vintage as we like them! Best, Nicolas ...
I passed on these many years
ago when they were literally inexpensive. What a mistake on my part 😡
Beauty!
Blue, no date, charming! It doesn’t get much better than this. Do you happen to know this case size?

The charm of the no date 94010 vs date 94110.
No date has a little extra sauce plus MN. ...
Agree with you Bill that the no date has an extra spicy touch but your date specimen looks so gorgeous to me. It would make me a very happy man this watch on my wrist!
Keep enjoying and loving it so much!! Best cordial regards, Abel
Just beautiful Nicolas
Thanks for posting. This really has the magic. I wonder what it sold for new. Irrelevant, I know, but it's interesting how certain watches (cars, or other things) capture our imaginations and have lasting value.
Sounds about right Nico
Just for fun, I looked up the price of the world's most expensive car (a Ferrari 250 GTO) when it sold new in 1963 -- $18,000, which was a lot and Enzo had to approve the sale. I think only 36 were produced and one recently sold for $70 million.
Love it, great to see.
I'm trying to remember how I spent $450 in the 1970s, but I'm sure this would have been a wiser choice.
Wow!! We need a Time Machine like in the H.G. Wells novel dear Nicolas! I remember my Dad paid 200,- US dollars for the ref 5513 (gilt) Submariner he gifted me in 1966.
By the other hand, a good friend of mine paid less than 250 dollars the following year 1967 in Tiffany & Co. New York for his Daytona. It had a standard "panda" dial signed with the store name. To have an idea of what dollars could buy in those far ye...
Ah yes my friend. Good old times! That was a very different and long gone era. It was possible to buy what you wanted anytime, anyplace... and I guess at a more affordable price as well as the present prices...
... are well beyond the inflation rates which affected the dollar for example. Un abrazo fuerte amigo mio, Abel
Oh! Nicolas! Just wait a few days... I´m working on that!
Just take a little back pack with you. We don´t have too much space here! Lol! Abrazos amigo!! ...
Ha ha ha!! Looks like it isn´t it Nicolas?
From the "Time Machine" movie of 1960 with Rod Taylor, based on the G.H. Wells novel. I wish we could ride it ! Abrazos, Abel ...
