Rolex Submariner Date 40MM "Bluesy" Blue Dial Two-Tone Oyster Bracelet (16803)
This timepiece is in vintage condition, showing signs of wear on the bracelet, case, and clasp. It comes as part of a set that includes boxes (inner and outer), a hangtag (green), an anchor, booklets, and papers with no specified date.
The Rolex Submariner Date (16803) provides an elegant fusion of steel and yellow gold in its 40mm case, complemented by a yellow gold 60-minute graduated bezel. The blue dial with luminous hands and hour markers not only offers visual appeal but also provides practicality with its date display, magnified by a Cyclops lens positioned at the 3 o'clock mark. It is equipped with an Oyster bracelet fashioned from a blend of steel and yellow gold secured by a folding clasp. Place your bid today and don't miss out!
This watch had a service overhaul in 2023 by Rolex: the case was replaced, the bezel, bezel disc, and dial, for a value of $6,000.

Hello Aldr2v8p5 - tat is not the case. it is 100% water tested as the outer case, bezel, bezel ring were all replaced. Rolex would not water test it without replacing the case. I have all the paperwork from Rolex stating the repairs that were made and confirming it is water tested and water proof.Aldr2v8p5 1
