Men's Rolex Submariner Model # 16610 Wristwatch Vintage Swiss T < 25

Seller poolguyfl

VERY NICE Rolex Submariner
Model # 16610 SWISS T < 25
OYSTER PERPETUAL DATE WRISTWATCH


Nice overall condition well cared for (Normal Wear).... Nice Original Blue dial Bezel has light scraching...


SWISS T<25 MARKINGS ON THE BOTTOM OF THE INSIDE refers to the chemical used on the hands and hour markers, which causes them to illuminate. Around 1950, watchmakers started using Tritium as their luminous material, and began indicating the amount of that radioactive material with a designation at the bottom of the dial (i.e. T SWISS T or SWISS T < 25). Around 1998, watchmakers changed the designation to read SWISS or SWISS MADE, when they replaced the Tritium with LumiNova (an organic, non-radioactive chemical), as their source of luminescence.
SWISS T < 25 more specifically indicates that the wristwatch emits an amount of Tritium that is less than the 25 milliCurie limit.


Rolex uses 1.4439 (or 904L) Stainless Steel. 904L has a slighytly higher nickel discharge, and thus a slightly higher resistance to corrosion. 904L is mainly used in industry applications handling chlorides, sulfer dioxide gas or other toxic materials. While this may sound like overkill for use with wristwatches, it's just another exaple of over'engineering on the part of Rolex where only the best will do.

That must be a "vintage" fake, because the new fakes are better than that. :-)

Reported again.
