The example offered here is part of the first era of tritium ref. 16610, which dates to 1993.
The dial is flawless, preserving its full glossiness and featuring a lovely creamy patina hue. The hands have also aged to a matching patina.
The original bezel insert is also presented in great condition, with only some minor signs of normal wear, and a hint of deep petrol hue fading under sunlight. The original pearl has aged to a matching patina.
The stainless steel case remains in great shape, showing thick lugs and sharp bevels which follow factory standards. It presents hardly any visible signs of use, with only some very minor marks. The case back is in the same condition.
It is in full working order, keeping great time, as it has been recently serviced..
The original sapphire crystal remains clean, except for a white cotton hair, probably from the watchmaker's gloves, resting in the interior face at around 6 o’clock that could be easily blown away.
It comes suited on the original 20mm Rolex Oyster 93150 stainless steel bracelet with 501B end links, clasp code T4 and divers’ extension that remains in great shape with almost any stretch at all and no mayor signs of wear.
Macros of dial and case are available under request.
