The Tudor Submariner has earned its reputation as a rugged tool watch, long favoured by professional divers and military units around the world. Few versions embody that legacy as strongly as the Tudor Submariner issued to the French Marine Nationale.

At Bulang & Sons, few pieces excite us as much as an MN-issued Tudor.

Here we present a blue “Snowflake” Submariner, reference 9401 — a watch that shows honest wear from real use, exactly the kind of character we appreciate in service-issued pieces.

This example belongs to a verified group of MN Tudors, with a serial number that falls perfectly within the range known to have been supplied to the French Naval forces. It is engraved “MN 82,” indicating delivery in 1982.

The lume on both the dial and the trademark Snowflake hands has aged into a warm light-yellow tone that contrasts beautifully with the rich blue backdrop. The watch is fitted with a single-pass strap that complements its authentic, utilitarian spirit.

The blue bezel insert has softened over the decades, developing an attractive fade while remaining free from major flaws or cracks. The lume pip has lost its luminous material during its military service.

Fresh from a complete service by our watchmaker, this piece is ready for many more years on the wrist.

We take great pride in sourcing exceptional military Tudors for collectors, and this MN Submariner stands firmly within that tradition.

Don’t wait — this MN Submariner is prêt pour sa prochaine aventure !
