Hello!

Kaneko from Commit Ginza will introduce some recommended watches!
Today we're looking at the blue sub dial!!

Rolex Blue Submariner All Tritium
Ref.16613 Serial.X (manufactured around 1991)
Cal.3185 FF401B/Hard bracelet 93153 Clasp code/S2
Accessories: Box, warranty card (400: Hong Kong/stamped November 1993)
SOLD OUT!!

A violet dial with a five-digit blue sub dial.
There are various opinions, but it seems that dials like this exist due to differences in dial manufacturing factories.

Even among violet dials of the same type, there are significant individual differences in how the purple appears.

The piece we have received this time does not have a particularly strong violet color, but the dial has a slight purple hue.

The color in this photo is a blue dial with a blue sub, which is a common color, so it doesn't look violet, but...

When the light hits it, the violet color is clearly visible.

Violet-changing dials tend to be deep blue dials, but this dial is mixed with pale blue, making it a rather unique dial.

If you look closely, you can see that the dial has slight deterioration due to aging, but this is a natural deterioration and creates a nice atmosphere.

The luminous material is all tritium.

The dark navy blue bezel insert is typical of the era and has some small scratches, but is in good condition.

The condition is that there are scratches on the whole item due to use, but there are no major scratches.

The case condition is excellent, and the crisp case makes this an attractive piece.

The bracelet is slightly wrinkled but is relatively sturdy.

Comes with box and warranty card.

Wrist shot!!
This is an attractive piece with a very beautiful blue dial!

All-tritium blue Submariner "Ref. 16613"
The dial with its exquisitely changing colors creates a unique atmosphere!
It also comes with a variety of accessories, so I highly recommend it!

If you are looking for a good blue sub, please consider this one.
