ROLEX SUBMARINER 16800(0)
The 16800(0) was only produced for roughly nine months! making it the most rare Rolex around production wise. The extra zero in the reference was added because of the fact that Rolex changed the stainless steel for the production of the 168000 Submariner. The 168000 is manufactured from 904L stainless Steel making it more acid and corrosion resistant that the 316 stainless steel made submariners (16800 1680 etc.) which was the standard stainless steel used up until that point.
Besides the beautiful matte grey dial, the 904L stainless steel case is in a 100% unpolished condition! Its not ‘refreshed’ or welded and re-cut. A true connoisseur will know, and notice the difference. Please take a look at the macro shot of the watch its lugs and the side of the case, absolutely beautiful and original. This 16800(0) is accompanied with its original boxes, punched and stamped warranty (Wempe, Germany) service booklet and spare link to the 91250 bracelet.
This killer Submariner was serviced by our watchmakers and will be delivered with a twelve month warranty.
