I have for sale a Rolex Submariner ref 1680 mk1 Lemrich dial from 1977 (5.1M serial)

I like it very much, but life is made of choices and I prefer my Tudor blue snowflake (https://omegaforums.net/threads/tudor-submariner-snowflake-9411-from-1980.78700/), so I decided to let it go. I am not interested in a trade.

Case:
Polished in the past, but it remains a killer, lugs are very thick, even and bevels are beautiful, it is flawless and has no dings. top hat plexi with cyclop.

Dial & hands:
Full tritium lume plots with no missing bits, Patina is slightly heterogenous, with yellow, orange, brown tones, it is incredible. It no longer reacts to UV light as it should be. Hands show a similar patina and have oxidation on the edges.

Crown :
triplock crown

Insert :
incredible period correct mk3 insert with a slight anthracite grey fade

Bracelet:
Solid link 93150 bracelet with 580 end links. Clasp with B engraving (1977)

Movement:
Fully working, no service history. I've own it for a few years and wore it 1-2 times. I have no case opener but i'll take a photo of it as soon as possible. Period correct silver date wheel with open 6 and 9.

Price is EUR 13500 / USD 16000 / CHF 14500 net to me

I am located in Geneva, Switzerland. Watch can be shipped from EU if needed to avoid annoying fees and taxes. More photos are available upon request.

Face 2 face is preferred of course around the Geneva region. Revolut (USD, CHF, EUR), bank wire or cash are preferred payment methods. Paypal is not my friend, sorry...

I have plenty of international references (Singapore, Hong Kong, Germany, USA, France, Italy, UK, Switzerland, etc…)
