A superb Snowflake in all its essence—great colors, serious presence, and a lot more fun than a traditional Submariner from the era. I’m always on the lookout for nice Snowflakes; the oversized hour markers and thick hands give them so much character. This example has aged beautifully, with very warm lume and a killer faded insert.
Condition & Specifications:
The 40mm stainless steel case is in great condition and has been lightly polished in the past. The lugs remain well defined, with the chamfers still present. The 12-link Oyster bracelet has a matching clasp code. The blue matte dial is in stunning condition, showing no damage or wear. The lume on the hands is stable and has aged uniformly. The bezel insert has faded to a beautiful blue tone, and the lume pip is Luminova. The watch has been serviced and is running accurately on the timegrapher.
