1992 Tudor Submariner Date 79090
Fun fact: Tudor produced Submariners alongside Rolex back in the day. In 1954, the year after Rolex first released their version of the Sub, Tudor released their first Submariner. The Tudor Sub you see here is a reference 79090 in black from 1992. In the early '90s, Tudor reintroduced the Mercedes hands, which are present on the example you see here. This watch has the same exact build as the traditional Rolex Submariner, but with a slightly different dial layout (and signature – duh). The crown is the same triple-lock crown with the same Oyster case. One of the awesome things about this Sub is that it still has the plexiglass crystal, while Rolex had replaced these with a sapphire crystal in 1979 with the Submariner reference 16800.
