Hey Guys,

Well, It looks like I am Canada's newest homeowner....finally. And how do you celebrate!? By selling one of your favourite watches to free up funds for incoming expenses :)

Joking aside, here we have a Rolex 1680 I purchased early last year from a respected member here on the forum. It's a lovely watch that my discerning eye can't find anything unauthentic about. I've even had it inspected by watchmakers and even by the Rolex watchmaker here in Calgary and everyone who's inspected it thinks it's absolutely lovely.

Everything is correct and original from the crystal to the buckle. The MK1 dial and hands are some of the nicest showing and even patina I have ever seen. You won't be disappointed.

I wear all my watches very carefully and this one will come in the same condition as it was originally sold to me. I will even include a period correct Rolex box I had kicking around the house.

Things to note : There is a small chip in the edge of the top hat crystal around the 11 o'clock marker, There are two removable links missing from the bracelet, The bracelet shows some minor stretch but is still very wearable

You can see the original post here: http://https://canwatchco.ca/showthread.php?46410-SOOOOOOOOOOOOOLD!-Vintage-Rolex-1680-Submariner-Mk1-Dial&highlight=Rolex+1680

I'm looking to get out exactly what I paid for her $16,000 which includes parcel pro shipping to your address.

Attached are photo's taken today ( June 28th 2020 )

Let me know if you have any questions and I will do my best to answer all I can. Stay safe CWC :)

You'd be hard pressed to find as minty a dial and hands as this old sub retains. Everything matches perfectly with peachy patina and fat even lugs. Even has the original crystal which you don't see on many of these old subs. This is a great watch in very collectible condition.

Getting really close guys!
Somebody on here must know what they're looking at. 93150 bracelet with 380 end links and VB clasp code, dating it to 1977. Original super high top hat crystal. Match that with the serial of 5093xxx and we've got a winner.
All the residue in the photo from under the caseback was cleaned up during inspection.
Keep those offers coming!

One more drop to $15,000, if you're looking for a 1680, this is the one you want. This case could look new if the right watchmaker gave it some TLC.

Withdrawn. Thanks for all the interest but the offers just weren't good enough to let this one go.
