Tudor Maxi Rose 7016 Submariner Unpolished
Offered up for sale is one of the rarest pieces in my collection. It pains me to do this but I’m chasing a couple of other pieces right now.
This is an unpolished Tudor Maxi Rose Submariner, reference 7016, serial 624,9xx, dating the watch to 1968. The Maxi Rose dial is a very rare variant of the reference 7016. They were only found between serials 623,xxx and 624,xxx. This dial has the same characteristics of the non-Maxi 7016 predecessor, except that the size of the hour plots are much larger, with some even touching the minute markers. I believe that the Maxi 7016 and the blue snowflake 7016 are the two rarest Tudor Submariner variants, as production runs were very short. This is a collector grade example as the dial is free of any marks or scratches, and the case is unpolished. My exact watch was featured on the website https://www.tudorsub.com/. You can see my watch on the main page (second Tudor from the left hand side), and on the 7016 page (where they compare the non-Maxi to the Maxi dial). The watch comes with a C&I rivet bracelet, with very little stretch if any. This is a stunning example, with significant vintage wrist presence, as the maxi lume plots and the lollipop seconds really pop in the flesh. These seldom come up for sale. The watch was recently fitted with a new acrylic crystal from TrueDome (https://truedome.com/). $14,000 USD shipped and insured. |
