Rolex Submariner 16800

The Rolex Submariner 16800 spanned a decade from 1979 and is known as the 'transitional' Submariner because, while it featured the addition of a sapphire crystal, quick-set date and increased depth rating, it still retained the older-style matte dial. Later 16800s were less transitional because the matte dial was replaced with a glossy finish and the hour markers were given white gold surrounds. This piece is an iconic reference for one of the most legendary watches in the world.
