Navy Seal Tudor

Look what I saw today at the navy seals museum in Florida, an old Tudor Submariner. It seems like this was worn by a Navy Seal and has held up very well. It's a pretty neat piece of history.

The aura pertaining to Tudor and Rolex Submariners in the Vietnam War was so appealing it lured me into this great hobby.
Thanks for sharing!

Very cool!

Check out this interview with UDT/SEAL Moki Martin. He still has his Tudor Submariner he received in 1965!

Google Hodinkee and Moki Martin for video.

Just imagine that 7016 going to auction with that level of provenance…

Pretty cool, I did not realize Tudors were ever issued by NSW. Supposedly in Army SF back in the day they used to issue Subs to dive teams only. You got to keep yours as a "operational loss" when you left the team. Only issue watch I ever got was a Sunnto!
