Catalog Essay:
Pre-owned Tudor Submariner ref 94110 (Circa 1976) offered the "Snowflake" style hands on the Submariners since 1969 and this era of Tudor Submariner would be the last to use them until Tudor brought back this design element to some modern models. The 94110 came out around 1973 and Tudor offered these in blue or black. Collectors tend to gravitate towards these blue Snowflakes because the French Navy / Marine Nationale chose this color to issue in the 1970s.
The Snowflake we have here comes directly from the original owner and was loved and worn for decades. From the well preserved blue dial to the perfectly faded bezel, this watch has taken on a beautiful aesthetic. The lume has all aged to a lovely pale yellow color that pops with the blue dial. The faded blue bezel is clearly the focal point of the watch and immediately gets your attention. If you have been in the market for a blue "Snowflake" Sub this is worth considering!
