Specialist note

The present watch is a superb example of the classic and ever-popular gold and blue Submariner. It is preserved in very good overall condition, the appeal enhanced by case back engraved 'Officier de la Legion d'Honneur, Jean Todt, 1 Janvier 1993'

Reference 16618, the all-gold Submariner, was launched in 1988, fitted with the caliber 3135 movement and quick-set calendar functions. The model was available with a variety of dial versions, the present blue dial variant with gilt print being among the most attractive versions.
