Description: Rolex Submariner 16800

Pre-owned Rolex Submariner ref 16800 (Circa 1984) is the best of both worlds when it comes to a dive watch with a vintage aesthetic but also all the usual modern amenities, such as a high-beat Perpetual movement with a Quickset date, scratch-resistant sapphire, a uni-directional time-lapse bezel, and Tritium lume in glitzier white gold surrounds. At the same time, ref. 16800 also sports an older-style case and bracelet. Rolex produced reference 16800 for a few years between the late 1970s and the 1980s, during which the model was equipped with a matte dial with painted indices, followed by the glossy dial example you see here. It holds a special place in Rolex history as a transitional model that bridges the gap between vintage 4-digit Rolexes and the modern aesthetics we've come to know and love today.

Overall great experience and product

Watch was in condition as pictured and described. Some major dents and scuffs on the bracelet/end-link were hidden well by the lighting but were very noticeable in person. Overall the watch was in great shape for the age.

Birth Year Sub 16800

I’ve bought multiple modern pieces from Bob’s and had a great experience every time. I’ve been looking to buy a birth year Rolex for awhile now and for me, that’s a late production run 16800. Couldn’t be happier with the watch and for those out there looking for a Sub, you should seriously consider the 16800. It has some great “modern” features, but holds true to a more vintage feel and elegance. Incredibly comfortable on the wrist and will undoubtedly continue to grow in value in my opinion. It’s a can’t miss buy all the way around.

A fair trade

I aquired an older vintage Rolex in a trade. It was going to cost a lot to refurb. Bob's offered a very fair trade in on a completely refurbed Submariner. I was very happy with service and the Submariner. A very positive experience and now the proud owner of a well running Rolex

Excellent Service & Quality Item

Bob's provided excellent service even when calling them to see if my PayPal transaction had posted so I could receive my purchase the next day. I am certain that not every company's Accounting team would be so customer oriented and my experience certified that I would go nowhere else for my vintage Rolex watches.

Black Submariner

I purchased this black Submariner for my son as a graduation gift. It is a classic watch, great to use in a new profession or for leisure activities. My son loves it and wears it daily. Thanks, Bobs!

Classic Look

This is one of those watches I think every collector needs. It's not too flashy, good for everyday wear and it's a Rolex (need I say more). Very happy with my purchase.
