1984 Rolex Submariner 16800 Spider Dial with Patina for Days

Sold

“The Chocolate Spider ”


Case: The recently polished case is excellent and shows only light wear from use. The bezel is aging to a dark glossy blue with light signs of age.

Dial: The glossy black white gold surround bezel shows extensive and even spider cracking patina. The lume has aged to a rich milk chocolate hue and the hands have aged slightly lighter than the dial.

Bracelet: The 11 link Oyster bracelet is excellent showing very light wear for its age. The clasp is stamped with a 1983 date code.

Accessories: None

Notes: This one is just so imperfectly perfect. The fading bezel is the perfect dark blue, the aging lume plots are the perfect chocolaty brown, and the spidering of the dial is delightfully organic.
