Its nickname is the diminutive of “Military” and “Submariner”. The brand with the crown marketed it notably in the United Kingdom where it equipped certain members of the British Royal Navy, notably the diving commandos, in the 1970s. Recognisable among all, it has a case with a screwed crown and case-back, fixed lugs, a bezel fully graduated over 60 minutes, a black dial with an encircled “T”, as well as a so-called military engraving on the case-back. This particular example has been preserved in excellent overall condition featuring all the original characteristics of these military issued watches.
