For sale is a Rolex Submariner 40mm Ref. 16613 also known as the ‘Bluesy’. The watch is dated from 1999 and sold with original Box, Manuals, Calendar Card & Red Swing Tag.
This piece is particularly distinguished by its striking blue dial and bezel, paired with a two-tone stainless steel and 18k yellow gold case and oyster bracelet.
The 40mm case size has been a hallmark of the Submariner series, aswell as most sports models, striking a balance between robust performance and wearability.
The watch comes fitted with the iconic oyster bracelet which comes equipped with a fold-over Oysterlock clasp, designed to prevent accidental opening while providing a secure fit. Additionally the clasp features the famous diver extension which allows the bracelet to be easily adjusted to fit over a wetsuit.
