ROLEX, STAINLESS STEEL SUBMARINER DATE WRISTWATCH, REF. 1680

The present ref. 1680 is a very well-preserved example of the Submariner Date model, fitted with a matte MK I dial, perfectly matching the production period of circa 1979. The creamy luminous accents are in a shade perfectly matching the luminescence of the hands. The case shows strong proportions and well-defined edges to the lugs.
