Latest Vintage Piece
1987 Rolex Submariner 16800 $12,900.00 CAD. 505-00637
We have steady requests for any estate Rolex Submariner. Especially popular are models made exclusively from stainless steel. The versions with a date display are by far the most sought after by our customers. For those who have been asking, here is your chance to pick up a classic vintage Submariner.
This is the somewhat uncommon 16800 “transition” model that marked many significant upgrades over all previous Submariners. The 16800 introduced a sapphire crystal, quick-set calendar setting mechanism, high beat 28,800 cycle per hour movement (calibre 3035), improved water-resistance rating 50% higher than the previous generation, and a new one-way bezel timer.
The 16800 only stayed in production for around 10 years before being substituted by the stopgap 168000 that was offered for less than a year. Overall condition of this example is pretty decent. The 11 link Oyster bracelet shows some sag and a bit of stretch big but has a decades of life left in it.
The bezel and buckle are genuine Rolex service replacements. The original tritium dial and hands are in excellent condition and show just a hint of even parchment patina.
The watch is working great, keeping time, and comes with our complimentary one year warranty.
There are no original documents or packaging included with this watch. If you’ve been looking for a Submariner Date, this is a good opportunity to pick up a blue chip example that is always welcomed back on trade if you ever want to upgrade.
Running great with all functions operating perfectly. Including our one year warranty and travel case this watch is estate priced at $12,900.00 CAD. Stock #505-00637.
