Info:

The Tudor Submariner 79000 series of reference (79090, 79190) was the 3rd and last generation of Tudor's classic Submariner collection. They were introduced by the brand in the 1980's and in different variation ran until 1999. The watches had a different dial version than the previous ones; the indexes at 9 and 6 o'clock were changed from square to triangle, the color variation was once again extended with the burgundy color, and the date became permanent. The movement was ETA's solid 2824-2. While the previous models had snowflake hands for this reference the hands are already so-called Mercedes hands, the ones you see on Rolex as well.
