The reference 1680 was the very first date-displaying Rolex Submariner model, which makes it an especially important reference in the history of the brand’s famous dive watch. Like many vintage Rolex watches, the Submariner Date ref. 1680 came in several iterations.
This example dates to approx. 1978. It has a later Tritium Dial with matching hands which have both faded to a creamy off white colour.
The bracelet measures 20.5cm, no additional links are included.
