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?
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
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.
