Tudor Submariner 9411/0 Snowflake – 1973

Tudor Submariner Snowflake 9411/0

Perhaps one of the finest Tudor Subs of them all, the 9411/0, also known as the 94110 for later years, combines everything we love about vintage Tudors into one package. The 39mm Oyster case houses a meters-first matte blue dial with tritium markers, date, and the iconic snowflake hands, topped with a blue bezel and tritium pip, all aged to perfection.

This particular example dates to around 1973 and presents in excellent vintage condition. The previously polished case shows prominent bevels, and marks, nicks and small dings commensurate with its age. Numbers between the lugs are clear, and has a 6 digit serial.

Dial has a beautiful patina with bubbling present as is typical on 9411’s. These dials are often replaced with service dials, so great to see an original dial with such a cool patina. Tritium plots are quite full, with even patina. Hands are tritium, and the hour hand is lighter than the minute hand. The hour hand potentially looks to have been stabilized, with some tritium partially missing.

Bezel looks original, with tritium pip and shows an even ‘Ghost’ fade. Very stiff to turn.

Comes equipped on a near-new 9-link Tudor 78500 bracelet with 380B endlinks that is in superb condition. Clasp date is CL. Will fit up to a 7.7in wrist.

Service history is unknown. Keeping time at around +12 seconds a day at 270+ degrees of amplitude. Date changes as it should, and winds very smoothly.

This is an lovely example of the highly desirable and collectible Blue Snowflake.
