Rolex Submariner 16803

5684 Submariner Two-Tone "Bluesy" 16803 c. 1985 Box While the Submariner has its origins as a tool watch, these watches have superseded their original purpose. The original references were only produced in steel, but in 1984 Rolex began to offer a two-tone dive watch in the form of the ref. 16803. A tacit acknowledgement of how watches were increasingly seen as status symbols, it was unapologetically luxurious. Despite this, they were being built with the strictest of Rolex standards in mind, meaning that they're able to back up their flashy appearance with solid and reliable performance. Rolex's Submariner is to many the definitive wristwatch. From its origins as a diver's companion and James Bond's wristwatch, the Submariner has ingrained itself into popular culture like no watch before or since. Worn and loved by bankers, rappers and watch enthusiasts alike, the Submariner possibly the most culturally significant piece of horology ever.
