Rolex Submariner Date Stainless Steel Black Dial 16800
Rolex Submariner Date Stainless Steel Black Dial 16800
The Rolex Submariner Date 16800 is a legendary dive watch that blends vintage charm with modern functionality. Produced from the late 1970s to the late 1980s, this model marks a key transition in Submariner history. The unidirectional rotating bezel features a black aluminum insert, ideal for tracking dive time.
The black dial is clean, functional, and easy to read. It includes luminous hour markers and Mercedes-style hands for high visibility. The Cyclops lens over the date window at 3 o’clock enhances legibility. This upgrade added a refined, luxury feel to the tool watch aesthetic.
Inside, the 16800 houses the Rolex Caliber 3035, a self-winding movement known for precision and reliability. It was the first Submariner movement to feature a quickset date function, allowing faster adjustments. Water-resistant up to 300 meters, the 16800 is a true professional diver’s watch.
Collectors value the 16800 for its transitional features— quickset date, and vintage aluminum bezel. It bridges the gap between early Submariners and modern models, offering the best of both worlds.
The Rolex Submariner Date 16800 stands out as a historical, reliable, and stylish timepiece. It remains a cornerstone in Rolex’s legacy of precision diving watches and timeless luxury design.
