The Rolex Submariner<\/a> reference 1680 was introduced in the late-1960s and was manufactured until 1980. The Submariner 1680 is a popular vintage Rolex watch to collect since it was the very first Submariner to include a date window on the dial. However, there is a specific variant within the 1680 family known as the Red Submariner that\u2019s the most coveted of all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

As its nickname suggests, the Rolex Red Submariner 1680 includes a red SUBMARINER inscription on the dial. Rolex eventually replaced the red version with an all-white text Submariner 1680 in the mid-1970s. Yet, despite its less-than-a-decade production run, Rolex still made several versions of the Red Sub, which makes collecting this vintage model even more interesting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
