Design

Dial and Hands
The watch features a matte blue dial characterized by its square-shaped Tritium indices, which show uniform patina. The design incorporates the signature 'snowflake' handset, which is designed to match the indices. A cyclops lens is positioned over the date aperture at the three o'clock position to improve legibility. The dial is signed 'Tudor Prince Oysterdate' and 'Submariner' with a depth rating of 200m/660ft. The combination of the blue color palette and the specific geometric markers is consistent with the 'Snowflake' configuration identified in the reference materials provided.
