Tudor Submariner 79090

Ref. 79090

Submariner

Tudor

Case 40mm
Material Stainless steel
Year 1989
From $7,000

The Tudor Submariner 79090 was produced from 1989 to 1999 and represents the final generation of Tudor dive watches to carry the Submariner name. Featuring a 40mm stainless steel case and the ETA 2824-2 movement, it shared many design cues with the Rolex Submariner but at a more accessible price point. Today, these references command significant premiums on the secondary market as collectors recognize their historical importance in Tudor's diving heritage.
