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. |

Love this! Would frame and hang with pride! You just gave me some ideas for my finished basement.

Make sure to get it foam mounted at a craft store like Hobby Lobby before framing. Makes a huge difference in how nice a poster looks framed. Actually, I do the same with all large photos as well.

Looks great, I wonder what your other art is? Is it also Rolex related?

Where can I get that strap? ;)
I have some pieces hung up. Worth it to get it framed professionaly and with a nice matte. Maybe creme colored matte. It will make that poster pop on your wall. |
