Info:

This is a wonderful example of a Single Red Rolex Submariner with stunning case and dial and original folded link bracelet. This watch is a premium example of a Single Reg Submariner reference 1680. The case has only been lightly polished and it still retains good thick lugs with excellent chamfers. It has the original Fat Font bezel insert with the 40 almost touching. The beautiful Mark IV dial has perfect pumpkin lume and matching hands. The bracelet is dated 1972 one year later than the watch case date but it's almost certainly original as the watches were often sold some time after their case back date stamp.

Box & Papers:

It comes with the original box and Rolex Service Guarantee card dated March 2015
