One of the most famously collectable Rolex sports models in history, the single line of red writing only appeared on the very first 1680 Submariner Date models for a few short years before Rolex switched to a monochrome 'all white' text. This example, from 1971 has come to us in super condition with a perfect Mk V dial, original 'fat font' bezel insert and beautifully aged Tritum lume. Fitted to the correct rare 'folded link' 9315 Oyster bracelet.
