Tudor Submariner 76100 Full Steel Yellow Patina Lollipop Hands

Tudor Submariner 76100 “Lollipop” – Vintage 1980s Dive Icon

Founded in 1926 by Hans Wilsdorf, Tudor has long been celebrated for producing robust, reliable timepieces that embody the spirit of Rolex while offering their own distinct identity. The Tudor Submariner, introduced in the 1950s, quickly became a favorite among military and professional divers for its durability, precision, and accessible design.

The Tudor Submariner Ref. 76100, produced during the 1980s, represents a transitional model in the brand’s history—featuring the iconic “lollipop” hour hand, matte tritium dial, and dependable ETA movement. Known for its versatility and strong connection to the golden era of tool watches, the 76100 remains one of the most sought-after vintage Tudor dive watches today.
