FS: Rolex Submariner, reference 168000. R serial dates it to 1987-1988. The 168000 was a transitional model, slotting between the outgoing 16800 and the new reference 16610 and was the first Submariner to be constructed from high grade 904L steel. The 168000 was only produced for about 9 months, making it short production run.
Comes with original chronometer certificate and Canadian AD Birks warranty booklet. Both are matching. Box, manuals and accessories are not original to this 168000 as it is from a later Submariner model.
Service history is unknown but appears that the date wheel has been replaced. Runs accurately. Little stretch on bracelet. Small chips on edge of crystal from :31 to :36, but rest of crystal is scratch free. Correct and original L coded 93150 bracelet on 593 end links.
Asking $6,500 via EMT. Price is FIRM. I'm after a grail and if it doesn't happen, I will happily withdraw this watch at the end of August. Watch mails from Burnaby, BC. Shipping inclusive or FTF available. PM for questions. Many references available. Thanks.
