Vintage Tudor Submariner "Lollipop" 76100 Full Set (1985)
These 76100 are unique collectors items. Tudor, Rolex's slightly "wilder", less conservative relative created a watch series with hand that did not use the typical Rolex mercedes hands. Instead, just for a short period the 'lollipop' hands were used. Much rarer than for example the Rolex Submariner refrence 1680 the "lollipop" is as cool as late model Tudor Submariners get. Tudor has created the newer Black Bay Heritage series with much larger watch diameters and more modern looks ,however, these vintage Tudor Subs that are no longer produced keep increasing their value and hold their elegant beauty and keep functioning perfectly with a bit of care and service.
Interestingly, 76100 and 79090 Tudor Submariners often tend to exhibit pure white lume indices, rather than the creamy lume that’s often seen in earlier references. The result, however, is a super clean matte dial Sub that will look great for years to come. Special nuance that only OCD collectors will appreciate – this is the only Tudor Sub to feature a metal date wheel. All others (7021/0, 9411/0, 79090) have white date wheels.
We are presenting the lollipop WITH original papers and original box. The watch is in fantastic condition and amazing collectible opportunity since it comes with the original documents/box.
The watch comes with it’s original steel bracelet. That adds to the long-term collectibility and value of Tudor submariners (that often come without papers or the actual original bracelet). However, we think it is best worn with the NATO bracelet as displayed in the pictures. These watches were often used in military special forces around the world with NATO bracelets. We can send the watch with additional NATO strap on request.
Tudor watches are increasingly being auctioned under “important watches” in leading auction houses:

Of particular desirability are the models with unique hands and dials, such as the reference 76100 offered here. Contemporary to the Rolex 5513, the reference 76100 Tudor Submariner was a limited production transitional model that features so called "Lollipop" hands set against a dial with triangular hour markers at 6, 9, and 12, which make them considerably less common than the standard "Mercedes Hand" versions.
