Looks excellent.

One question is that dial tritium or luminova? You can't go by what is necessarily printed on the dial.

Nice watch...love snowflakes. Looks super

Regarding the bracelet. The D12 stamp indicates december 1979...ca.
On odd thing that I can spot, I´m no expert, is the word Registered on the clasp. The stamp looks kind of faint....and off??

The end links should have another number stamped then 16610??

Consider getting a bracelet from RUSA, or from one of our friends in the UK. I have a Tudor Snowflake that didn't have a bracelet. Last year I decided to get a bracelet, and my AD sent the watch to RUSA and they fit a genuine Tudor Oyster fliplock bracelet, and sent the watch back to my AD. RUSA required the AD to send the watch head to them before they would sell the bracelet, but the bracelet only cost me $450, which seems like a bargain compared to what a 16610 bracelet costs.

Anyway, enjoy your retirement & your Tudor.
