Shown on an Olive Nato and on the Rolex Oyster strap which is around 10 years later than the watch 'head' (1979) in stainless steel with the original hands and the 'Lume' plots are the original Tritium in near perfect condition.  The watch has just had a full strip down, overhaul service and strap refurbish. The watch comes with a Rolex box and outer card box.  The screw down crown with logo is also the original. Serial number starting 21---- It's worth noting that these are exceptionally difficult to find in this condition.

]]> Rolex Submariner https://theclockandwatchshop.co.uk/product/rolex-submariner/ Tue, 23 Jul 2024 16:08:23 +0000 https://www.theclockandwatchshop.co.uk/?post_type=product&p=87817 Now Sold but please call us for latest arrivals .The 168000 is one of the rarest Submariners made by Rolex . A transitional model, it was made for just 9 months prior to the launch of the much longer running 16610. The 168000 featured Rolex new case metal made from 904L used because of enhanced anti corrosion qualities .
This model dates to 1987 and is instantly recogniseable by the oxidised dial and Tropical Lume fading on the hour markers consistent with this model and more importantly it has the thin Tulip Coronet at 12 on the dial . There were amazingly 2-3 dial variations of this model and in such a short production run !
The watch comes with period correct bracelet 93150 and original box with warranty card holder with serial number sticker and green tag sadly the original warranty papers are not present.
The watch is in great condition having just been serviced . The case is unpolished and retains the original thickness.
