Sub 1680

[mortysnl]

Hi again,

As i am on the hunt for a correct vintage Rolex not as a collector but just to leave behind for my son later and do not have the knowledge to fish the correct one, you maybe see me too often coming time. Sorry for being so present.
This forum is the place i can get the correct info.
Thanks for this!!
Now i have found some 1680's which i am wondering if they are correct:

Forget traipsing around in the dark recesses of the web. Buy from one of the amazing sellers here. HQMILTON. Kirill. Etc. they'll source you an amazing 1680 for your boy

Is it a birth year watch for your son?

You're certainly welcome; knowing that this is for your son, I think you will rest easy knowing that you bought it from an unquestionably ethical and reliable source. Also, could I be your son?

HQ Milton will ship worldwide. Highly recommended, and they have four nice 1680s in stock right now. No affiliation - just a happy customer.

He meant a watch corresponding to your son's year of birth. If that's what you're after. What year was he born?

From US to EU meaning a lot of import tax. I will contact them and see maybe they can deliver it from EU or have some other solution. Thnx!!

Well, if you are looking for a birth-year Sub 1680 for your son, you will need a red Sub for 1973, and be prepared to increase your budget. You could also look at 5513 (no-date) Subs, which would be less expensive but still pricey.

Yes indeed. I found this one and looks pretty good. Called them and they say it's all original. I hope so

Send Henrik from subgmt.com an email explaining what you are looking for. Great guy, knows what he is talking about and reasonable prices. And he is in Holland so no issues with import duties etc. I bought from him before and highly recommend him.
