One of the most popular current watches, the Tudor Black Bay has a lot of appeal.  Model reference 79230N.

HOW DO WE DATE THIS WATCH?

From the International Guarantee card, which matches the serial number on the case lug, we can accurately date this watch to being sold in October 2018.

CONDITION

Although this watch has been worn, it hasn’t been worn much.  It is difficult to fault the condition, and the extra NATO strap has not even been removed from the plastic wrapper.  There are a lot of different Black Bay models, but this has the larger case and the in house chronometer certified (COSC) MT5602 movement with an impressive 70 hour power reserve.  The older versions, with curved writing on the dial, were not chronometer rated and had a forty hour reserve so this movement is a significant step up, and makes you wonder why the Submariner is twice the price?  The Black Bay also has the snowflake hour hand too of course!  The leather strap is the original, made to look distressed Tudor item.

This watch will be supplied with the original inner and outer presentation boxes, papers, unused NATO strap and our Certificate of Authenticity.
