This Submariner is in great vintage condition with wear consistent with age. The stainless steel case is strong with some wear, nicks, and scratches. The caseback is stamped "1680 IV.72," with the serial and reference numbers clearly visible. The bevels are still visible on the case. The bezel has remained sharp and the bezel insert is a later, service replacement in great condition with light wear. The black matte dial is in overall great condition with light patina. The lume on the dial have aged to an attractive off-white eggshell white color. The hands are in great condition and the lume in the hands is close to matching the lume on the dial. The folded bracelet is in great condition with some scratches and wear, it has some stretch between the links which is not uncommon for this style bracelet. This has a stainless steel 93150 fold-over Oyster bracelet with 10 links and 501B end links. The bracelet clasp is stamped "K4" indicating it is from 1986.
Pre-owned Rolex Submariner ref 1680 (1978) is one of the most sought-after vintage watches on the market. It hails from the legendary Submariner collection, complete with a waterproof case, 60-minute diver's bezel, and self-winding movement. The 1680 also holds a special place in Rolex history as the first Submariner to feature a date mechanism on the dial. Rolex initially made the 1680 with a single line of red text on the dial and would later move to all white text like the example we have here. These "White" 1680s have gained popularity and good ones are becoming harder and harder to find.
