That you can play with straps... Leather Natos: Canvas and Nylon Natos: Tropic Straps: Luckily, its bars are not fixed. And it changes the look of the watch so much. Not only a holy monster in a watch collection, but also a pleasure watch. Best, Nicolas
The Submariner reference 7924 is a notable early iteration of the model, recognized for its specific design elements that differentiate it from other references within the Submariner lineage. It represents a particular period in the model's development, characterized by a focus on robust construction and legibility. This reference is often sought by collectors interested in the evolution of the Submariner series and its foundational designs. Its production run was relatively brief, contributing to its distinct position.
This reference typically features a stainless steel case, often distinguished by its larger crown compared to some contemporary models. The movement housed within is an automatic caliber, designed for reliability and consistent timekeeping. The crystal protecting the dial is generally acrylic, consistent with watches of its era, offering a warm aesthetic and shatter resistance. The case dimensions are characteristic of early sport watches, providing a substantial presence on the wrist.
For collectors, the 7924 holds significance as a transitional reference, bridging earlier designs with later, more standardized Submariner aesthetics. Its specific crown size and dial configurations are points of interest, allowing for detailed study of production variations. The appeal lies in its historical context and the opportunity to acquire a piece from a formative period of the Submariner's development, appealing to those who value originality and historical accuracy in their collections.
