What Makes This Watch Special

This pre-owned wristwatch, produced around 1973, features tritium luminescence and is equipped with the in-house movement "cal.1570," certified as a chronometer with a 48-hour power reserve. It is notable for being the first Submariner model to include a date display, produced for approximately 15 years, and this version features the "Submariner" inscription in white at the 6 o'clock position. The watch has undergone an overhaul and exterior finishing by our partnered craftsman, though it does show minor scratches on the bezel and surface of the crystal, with some parts replaced including the case, dial, bracelet, hands, and bezel.
