Reneé-Paul Jeanneret´s Dream in Green!
The launch of the Submariner in 1953 dates back to the idea of the then Rolex director Reneé-Paul Jeanneret. He wanted a diving watch that was technically and functionally state-of-the-art, but at the same time featured such an elegant design that it could be worn with a suit without hesitation. Thus, the Submariner was born. The watch with which you could sit in the morning board meeting and at noon go for another round in the Mediterranean with Jacques Cousteau.
Our reference 16610 here was purchased in May 1994. The watch comes in a complete full set, as well as the original purchase invoice for 3,850 Marks.
The case of the watch is in good condition with strong lugs and only light polishing over the last decades. Light signs of wear are present. Light signs of wear are visible on the bezel.
The bracelet has age-related stretch. Visually, it is in very good condition.
Inside ticks the extremely proven caliber 3135, which has been in use since 1988. Like every Rolex movement, it performs its duty for decades without complaints with proper care.
