This example of the highly coveted reference 1680 stands out through its clean and attractive dial with red Submariner script.
Nicknamed “Red-Sub” by Rolex collectors, the timepiece features attractive luminous accents that have aged to a uniform color. Adding to the appeal of the wristwatch, the color of the dial has changed to a dark brown color and is allied to a well preserved stainless steel case with very strong proportions, featuring clear reference and serial numbers.
Furthermore, this example is attributed to the rare 'meters first Mark II dial'. Brown dial Submariners such as the present watch are highly sought after, especially rare and appearing usually only in case numbers in the 2.2-2.4M serial range.
