new to me Tudor Hydronaut II

Not a rolex but it is my first "fine time peice". It came with outer/inner box, three warranty cards, manuals. It did have a plastic protector on the back with the model number but I took the plunge and removed the plastic.

Is that a carbon fiber dial kind looks like it in the last picture...

Deployment clasps are great on straps like that

Yes it is a carbon fiber dial, model number 20040.

I love the rubber strap. I have large hands and rather small wrists. I run into the problem of making a bracelet large enough to pass over my hand which in turn makes a bracelet to large for my wrist. Non issue with this watch.
