An extremely rare submariner NOS incoming. Waited years for this one.

Somehow clickbait title, however I am sure people will appreciate the joke here (at least I hope).

Back when Rolex made tools and their users were more worried about reliability than scratches, the company commissioned a Swiss designer to advertise the 1680 and its waterproof ability. I remember seeing this image long ago, and always wanted to get a good copy of the poster.

Let me tell you that finding such an example was not easy. I have now to frame it, and finally hang it next to my others pieces of art.




Yet, it might have been easier to procure (and faster) than many current models.
