FS: 1972 Rolex Submariner ref.1680 w/ Mk IV Red Dial - $22,500

For sale is in my opinion a pretty darn good MK IV 1680 red submariner. Not unpolished or completely “clean” or “untouched” but will pass the smell test of most vintage people. We all know that a great example will run you $28-$35k easy.

What I have here is an all original specimen that has no significant issues and has been tested to +-5 seconds a day so it is running great. I believe it is a great value proposition for the non-perfectionist. I am offering it from one collector to another without having vintage dealers take their 15-20% cut.

I've provided a ton of photos so please take a look closely.

Description: The 1680 red-letter Submariner is one of the most sought-after watches in the collector’s world for many reasons. It introduced the date complication to the range; it was the last reference with the acrylic crystal and was only produced for a decade until 1979. Of that decade, the red Submariner line was only available for the first half, making the dial relatively scarce.

S/N: 3.3 Million - (1972)

Case: Very good case which has signs of being polished. Comes with a MK III, fat font bezel insert which has has slight wear from use and matches dial. Inner caseback is stamped: 1680 IV 72. Serial and reference numbers are legible. There are some marks on the back lugs but it is covered by the bracelet. I can still see some good beveling.

Dial: Excellent Red Submariner dial with warm yellow markers, clean except for a very minor chip at 7 o’clock. Matching hands.

Bracelet: Very good 93150 bracelet with 10 links and 580 end links. Some scratches on bracelet.

Movement: I've had a watchmaker open the case and verify it is in good working order and 100% authentic.

Accessories: None

PRICE: Offered at a collector's price of only $22,500

I am in Los Angeles and welcome a face to face deal. Tons of references readily available upon request.

I am a watch collector that from time to time sells my watches. All my watches are guaranteed authentic and I will stand by its Authenticity. THE PHOTOGRAPHS ARE OF THE EXACT ITEM UP FOR SALE & Everything Pictured:

Back on the market for the next 1-2 weeks. Have an incoming Patek and need the funds so we'll see if this or my Chronometre Bleu sells first.
