Lot Essay

The present Red Submariner reference 1680 is one of the earlier examples and fitted with a Mark II dial. Interestingly, contrary to the regular production, the dial of this example here does not feature the outer minute seconds divisions. Since, at the 6 o'clock position the dial is still featuring the typical "SWISS - T < 25", it is possible that this dial was never printed with outer white divisions.
