1991 Rolex 18K YG Submariner 16618 Lapis Dial with Box and Papers

Sold

“The Stone Sub”


Case: The thick and even case shows a warm rosy patina and prominent bevels. The case looks to have been polished in the past and shows only light wear from use. The blue bezel insert is excellent showing only very light wear.

Dial: The blue lapis lazuli dial is excellent showing little if any wear for its age. The gold flecks are perfectly distributed through this particular slice of stone. There is a very small and subtle mark just above the 11 o'clock marker that looks only to be on the surface of the dial and not a crack. The lume has aged to a warm creamy hue and the hands have aged just slightly lighter than the dial which is common for watches of this era.

Bracelet: The 12 link Oyster bracelet is excellent showing no perceivable stretch. The clasp is stamped with a 1994 date code.

Accessories: Rolex Box and Papers.

Notes: It doesn't get much rarer than this.
