This Rolex Submariner, reference 168000, is a 40mm case in Steel used condition, featuring a Black Standard dial, a Black Standard bezel, a Oyster bracelet, dated circa 1988. Priced dealer-direct and shipped fully insured.
Launched in 1953, the Submariner established the diver's-watch archetype and has never given up the title. The unidirectional rotating bezel, luminous dial, and Oyster case set the standard others copied. It bridges genuine diving utility with design that collectors and first-time buyers chase equally. That demand is why it stays the most liquid luxury sports watch around. Steel runs near retail; pay by wire and the math gets better still. Read the full Submariner buying guide ›
Think of a Rolex as both a watch and a position you can exit. The 1905 Geneva manufacture, started by Hans Wilsdorf, pioneered waterproof cases, self-winding movements, and date functions, earning a precision reputation that runs past horology. The Oyster, Perpetual movement, and Cyclops lens need no introduction. Submariners, GMT-Master IIs, and Daytonas in steel trade above retail, which is why wire-versus-card savings change your real cost. Browse all Rolex ›
