Tudor Submariner Ref. 94110 'Snowflake'

Partially verified

This Tudor Submariner, identified as reference 94110 and dated to circa 1981, is known in the collector community as a 'Snowflake' model. This designation refers to the specific configuration of the handset and the square-shaped Tritium indices on the blue dial. The watch features a stainless steel Oyster case and a matching Oyster bracelet. The rotating blue bezel insert displays evidence of fading, including a patinated luminous pip at the zero position. It is powered by an automatic movement and features a date display with a cyclops lens. The overall condition is described by the vendor as fantastic, with a uniform patina evident on the dial markers and hands.

Object description

Dial and Hands

The watch features a matte blue dial characterized by its square-shaped Tritium indices, which show uniform patina. The design incorporates the signature 'snowflake' handset, which is designed to match the indices. A cyclops lens is positioned over the date aperture at the three o'clock position to improve legibility.

The dial is signed 'Tudor Prince Oysterdate' and 'Submariner' with a depth rating of 200m/660ft. The combination of the blue color palette and the specific geometric markers is consistent with the 'Snowflake' configuration identified in the reference materials provided.

The watch is secured to the wrist with an Oyster bracelet, which appears to be of stainless steel construction. The case retains the crown and guard assembly associated with the Submariner line.
