The present Rolex Submariner Date reference 16800, dating to circa 1981 and bearing serial 7162XXX, is an outstanding example of the highly collectible transitional Submariner, combining the vintage appeal of a matte tritium dial with the technical advancements of sapphire crystal and an upgraded movement. The stainless-steel case is preserved in excellent overall condition, having been recently polished and now showing only minimal signs of wear. Importantly, the serial and reference numbers between the lugs remain crisp and well defined, a reassuring indication of the case's excellent preservation. The original matte black tritium dial is beautifully preserved and virtually immaculate, while the original tritium hands match perfectly, creating a particularly attractive and harmonious vintage appearance. The original bezel insert remains in excellent condition and shows only light wear consistent with careful use, complementing the watch's honest and well-preserved character. The watch is fitted with its original Oyster bracelet reference 93150 with 593 endlinks, preserved in excellent condition. The clasp bears the code L9, correct for the production period. While no service history accompanies the watch, it is in perfect working condition at the time of cataloguing. Combining a superb original matte dial, a sharp and well-preserved case, and the desirable early characteristics of the reference, this Submariner Date 16800 represents an excellent opportunity to acquire one of Rolex's most sought-after transitional dive watches.
