On November 30, 1976, a Sailor aboard the USS Nimitz purchased this remarkable timepiece from the ship’s store during its maiden voyage in the Mediterranean. The watch remained in his family until now. This vintage Tudor Oysterdate carries a unique legacy. Meticulously serviced by Justin Harrell, a graduate of the Rolex Technicum School in Lititz, Pennsylvania, this rare timepiece is in excellent condition.
