This vintage Rolex Submariner Date, reference 1680, is the highly collectible "Red Sub", named for the red "Submariner" text on its black dial. The 1680 was the first Submariner to feature a date window with Cyclops magnifier and remains one of the most sought-after vintage dive watches. It features a 40mm Oyster case, a unidirectional rotating dive bezel and Rolex's self-winding movement. This example comes with its box and service card and is fitted on a 7.75 inch factory bracelet. As with any vintage piece, it shows wear consistent with its age; please review the photos carefully for condition.
