Description
The Blue Submariner - Rolex Sports models in 18K gold are known as bricks on the wrist with a substantial weight. Don't get us wrong, there is nothing wrong with that, this is, in fact, something which buyers of these like. The combination of yellow gold on a sports watch has something sexy. The here offered watch is such an example, it just looks wow on the wrist and has a nice feel to it. The condition of this example is astonishing, it remains unpolished and still shows the factory bevels and finishing. Another interesting fact is that this 16618 has a tritium dial with nicely aged cream color Luminous with matching hands. These Neo Vintage Submariners are for every day wear, given that they have a Sapphire crystal and are actually water resistant. This watch is the perfect watch for the sea, no matter if you are swimming or on a boat. It just looks so good in the Sun.
