|
Excellent condition Rolex Submariner model reference 1680 dating to 1977.

maintained with a great deal of care.
It was serviced around 2 years ago by an independent watchmaker
and is keeping good time. It
is the highly collectible Submariner date with thick plexi crystal
(plastic) and matte tritium dial. The 1680 reference submariners are
very collectible and are difficult it find in good condition.
Whilst the prices of vintage Rolex sports models has dropped off
in recent months due to a fall after a little bit of a collecting hype,
figures have stabilized. At one stage at the peak of their hype, the
1680 Submariners were selling for up to £6,000 for an average condition
one. The Submariner is a watch that needs no introduction, as it is
unquestionably the most successful and widely known divers watch in the
world. It is the watch that set the standard in professional divers
watches and one that most other divers watches aspire to emulate. This
watch has been used by the military for issue to special forces divers.
It has been issued to divers working for under water pipe laying
companies. It has been issued to divers working on oil rigs, and used by
non commercial divers all over the world – such is the reliability,
robustness and practicality of this watch. It is equally at home being
worn with a suit or for weekend leisure. Needless to say it is an
officially certified Swiss chronometer as indicated by the dial
markings. It is 300 metres resistant, sturdy uni directional, friction
operated rotating bezel with screwed down crown and genuine Rolex 2 mm
thick acrylic crystal. The dial, crystal, case and bracelet are mint
condition. Dimensions are: width is 40 mm excluding crown, 43.5 mm
including crown and 47 mm lug to lug and thickness is 14 mm. ROL

military used for issue to the Royal Marines in the late 9160’s and

Rolex Military Pocket Watch
|
|
Excellent condition Rolex
Military pocket watch. Rolex
themselves need no introduction as they are one of the most famous watch
houses in the world. In the
early days of their history they were making pocket watches before the
advent of the wristwatch. This
one is one of their military watches that was issued to the British armed
forces during the World War 1 period and is more than likely to have been
issued to an officer. The
style is typical in military design with a mat black dial with large and
bold numerals and hands, some of the luminous fill has fallen from the
hands, but a decent watchmaker will be able to restore the hands, however
it is best left and it is being sold as it is.
The dial is signed Rolex and the numbers A17274.
As with all military watches, the case is metal alloy.
The case back is stamped with the military issue numbers “A.
17274, below that G.S. MK II and beneath that a broad arrow.
The inside of the case back is also stamped by Rolex.
The movement is in excellent condition and the bridge is stamped
with Rolex. It is a 15 jewel
stem wound movement. This is
a wonderful piece of military memorabilia and one to be treasured by a
collector which appeals to militaria and Rolex enthusiasts alike.
Dimensions are width is 50 mm and thickness is 15mm.
