Signed Rolex, Oyster Perpetual Date, Submariner, 660ft=200m, ref. 1680, case no. 5’909’215, circa 1979

The present ref. 1680 is a well-preserved representative of the famous model in gold, featuring a so-called "bicchierini" or "nipple" dial, referring to the applied dot indexes with stylish gold surround.

The gilt graphics on the present dial are particular to the gold version of the reference and befit the watch perfectly. Unique is the slight colour change depending on the angle at which the watch is seen, from blue to purple pink.

The combination of the colour change dial, massive gold case and very good overall condition render this ref. 1680 a golden opportunity for the Rolex aficionado.
