1986 Rolex 168000 Submariner

Description:  The “triple 0” 168000 Submariner is one of the rarest White Gold Surround Submariner’s in existence. Believed to be made for only a couple of years, the 168000 sits between the 16800 and 16610 as a transitional watch. It houses the 3035 movement that the 16800 had, but differs in that the Steel that was used was shifted from 316L to 904L. This means that this was the first Submariner to be housed in 904L. This particular 168000 is in excellent condition. The dial lume is creamy and even throughout and the black glossy dial remains very reflective still. Furthermore the cherry on top is that the case appears unpolished with sharp bevels and even lugs.
