Reasons to bid

The Rolex Submariner Date Ref. 1680 is the latest member of the collection to be fitted with an acrylic crystal. It is known that there are many versions of this reference, so it always arouses the great interest of collectors. This Ref. 1680 ‘White’ Mk1 offers a monochromatic version of the Rolex Submariner Date design, which is very much in keeping with the character of this extremely technical watch. The impressive dial design is made according to the Maxi dial type, i.e. with large lumi indexes and Mercedes hands for the hour, ‘pencil’ for the minute and ‘lollipop’ for the seconds – this watch will never go unnoticed and underappreciated.
