Tudor Sub and Rolex Sub comparison:

I just wanted to share a few photos/thoughts on the 1966 year Tudor Sub 7928, and compare it to my other weekend watch: Rolex Sub 16800. The Tudor is exactly what I expected, a very nice looking older model Submariner with faded hour markers under acrylic crystal. It's my first high quality vintage watch- I haven't taken it off since I picked it up yesterday.

Tudor Sub:
-1966 year built- 390 movement
-no date model
-flatter caseback, so it sits flatter on my wrist
-case and crown look and feel very similar to the Rolex Sub
-yellowed hour markers/dots provide the vintage look
-acrylic crystal raised

Rolex Sub:
-1984 year built- 3035 movement
-date model
-raised caseback, sits slightly higher on the wrist
-cyclops makes a statement.
-sapphire crystal flat
