Rolex Submariner, Ref. 168000 – circa 1987 (R38xxxx series) Originally sold in March 1988 at a U.S. military base, specifically the U.S. Naval Station in New York. The certificate is stamped with the 904 code (military delivery code). A fine example of the highly sought-after neo-vintage Rolex Submariner, reference 168000. The watch features a beautiful tritium dial with hands that match nicely, creating a well-balanced vintage aesthetic. Unlike the earlier ref. 16800, which was made from 316L steel, the 168000 was produced using 904L stainless steel—offering enhanced corrosion resistance and marking this model as a rare transitional reference. The case is in good condition, and the watch is fitted with a 93150 Oyster bracelet showing light stretch. A superb neo-vintage transitional Submariner. Comes with boxes, booklets, certificate, calendar card, hangtags, extra links, anchor nad 2024 service.
