FS: 2000 Rolex Submariner Date 16610 w/ Box and Papers - SEL/Holes Case - A Series

[luxuwrist]

Rolex's Submariner is synonymous with the concept of a tool watch, and at the same time a classic design icon and one of the most important watches ever made. The watch offered here is the reference 16610 which uses Rolex's unique 904L stainless steel case and is powered by the 3135 caliber COSC certified movement.

The watch offered here is in outstanding condition for its age and looks like it has been seldom worn throughout its life, with a very thick case with crisp brushing and bright polished surfaces, a thick coronet on the bracelet clasp, and an excellent condition bezel insert.

This is an excellent condition example of the legendary Submariner, and being a late A-series serial, is one of the first watches with a Superluminova dial and a solid end link bracelet. This is also part of the small run of watches with the solid end link bracelet and a holes case, keeping the true tool watch look but with the much more modern and well constructed solid link bracelet. The original warranty papers, box, manual, and polishing cloth round out a great collector's set.

Take a look at the photos and our condition description below:
