REF: 1680
CHF 12'500 .-
A beautifully preserved example of the iconic Submariner Date reference 1680, this watch dates to 1977 (Serial 5.429XXX) and features the classic matte tritium dial that defines the vintage charm of this era. The case remains in excellent condition, having been polished in the past, and shows only light wear from use. The original tritium dial is flawless, with a warm and even yellowish patina that lends the watch exceptional presence. The hands appear to be later service tritium units and match the dial well. The MK3 bezel insert is original, lightly faded, and in excellent condition with minor signs of wear. The watch is fitted with a newer 93150 Oyster bracelet with 501B endlinks and a U1 clasp code, showing only very light stretch. The serial and reference numbers between the lugs are crisp and well defined. The movement has been thoroughly checked by our watchmaker and runs perfectly. A great example of a late 1970s Submariner Date with strong aesthetics and a beautiful patinated dial—ideal for vintage Rolex collectors who value condition and character.
