Description
The Rolex Submariner ref. 1680 from 1973 is one of the most iconic vintage dive watches ever produced. As the first Submariner with a date function, it holds a special place in Rolex history. This example is even more desirable as it features the legendary MKIV "Red Sub" dial, with the word Submariner printed in red a highly sought after detail that makes this reference a true collector's piece.
The 40 mm stainless steel Oyster case is paired with the classic Oyster bracelet and fitted with the characteristic plexiglass crystal with Cyclops magnifier, preserving the authentic vintage character of the watch.
Powered by the automatic Rolex Caliber 1575, it offers exceptional reliability and approximately 48 hours of power reserve.
Presented in excellent pre-owned condition, this Submariner is backed by a 24-month warranty for complete peace of mind.

I recently bought my Rolex Datejust through Wristler. The whole proces was supereasy, Whristler answered a couple of question that I had fast. Payment went securely through them. The watch is magnificent!! Couldn’t be happier with the watch, but also the the whole buying process.
