Tudor Submariner Ref. 7928 – Rare Mark 6 Gloss Dial

Looking for a vintage dive watch that truly stands out? Meet the Tudor Submariner Ref. 7928, featuring the incredibly rare Mark 6 gloss dial — a real grail piece for Tudor and Submariner collectors alike. Produced in 1966, this model carries the kind of history, character, and charm that only a true vintage diver can offer.

The 39mm stainless steel case with rounded crown guards gives it that classic Submariner silhouette, while the beautifully aged gloss black dial features original Tritium/Zinc Sulfide lume — now aged into a rich, creamy patina that collectors dream about.

This example is especially desirable thanks to its original 7206 folded-link bracelet dated 1966, its rare dial configuration (only seen in a narrow production window), and its untouched, naturally aged character. It also comes with a custom grey single-pass strap from Yorkshire Watch Straps for added versatility.
