Hello! I have a Rolex Submariner Date 1680 8 in excellent, honest, unpolished vintage condition. The watch was made in 1978 and features the “nipple dial.” It has full links, but does not come with original box or papers. The watch was serviced within the past 6 months and the paperwork for that is available. The crown and stem were replaced. Otherwise it’s all original. The watch is located in the Tampa Bay, Florida area. A viewing can be arranged in person for a serious buyer. Seller is asking for $59,000 obo.
