The first Submariner with date/Ref.1680.
This was manufactured from 1969 to 1976.
The early model with the SUBMARINER logo in red,
It is commonly known as the Red Sub .
The item we have in stock this time is a rare model among red Submariners.
Meter first.
The 200m marking comes first, commonly known as " meter first"
This is an early model with a matte dial.
The Meter First was produced from 1969 to 1970.
The red Submariner is a meter-first model.
They are classified from MK1 to MK3 .
Furthermore, the model that is said to be the most difficult to obtain among the already difficult to obtain Meter First models is
This is the earliest dial, "MK1" .
The features of the MK1 dial are:
The Submariner logo is wider than the waterproof label,
It is a “660ft” “Close 6” and a “Long F” with a long upper part.
This particular model has a faded light gray "long 5" bezel and evenly colored tritium luminous paint, giving it an incredibly cool look!
I was surprised at how good the dial condition is for a watch from around 1969.
It is a beautiful dial that appears slightly brown depending on how the light hits it.
The condition of the needles also seems to be in very good condition.
The case and bracelet have some small scratches appropriate for the age of the watch.
There are no major scratches.
The case is also in good condition and doesn't feel overly thin.
9315/Wrap bracelet (FF380) is wrinkled,
It is relatively sturdy.
Wrist shot!!
This is a great piece with a ghost faded bezel and a beautiful dial!
It's cool!!
