Collectible Features |Rolex Submariner 16803

Discover all the different variants of this specific reference that can enhance, or limit, this watch's value and collectability.

Tropical Dial

A dial that has aged from black to a brown or caramel color due to prolonged exposure to sunlight and elements. Highly prized for its unique and attractive aging. Greatly increases value due to unique appearance and collector demand.

Nipple Dial

The "nipple dial" is a term used to describe a specific type of dial found on certain vintage Rolex watches, particularly the Rolex GMT-Master and Submariner models from the 1970s and 1980s. The distinguishing feature of a nipple dial is its hour markers: instead of the usual flat or applied markers, these dials have raised, gold-trimmed markers that resemble small "nipples." These markers are typically made of gold and are filled with luminous material, allowing them to be easily read in low-light conditions. The nipple dial is considered highly desirable among collectors due to its distinctive look and its association with vintage Rolex models.

Tiffany Dial

A dial co-branded with the "Tiffany & Co." logo, signifying a special partnership between Rolex and the famous jeweler.
