NOTES:

The reference 1680 was introduced in the mid-1960’s (est. 1966) and had the chronometer movement standard as well as the date display. This was also the indtorduction of the ‘Cyclops’ date magnifier on the acrylic to the Submariner line.
The 16800 succeeded the 1680 as the improved generation featuring a scratch-resistant sapphire glass further improving water resistance to 300m (1000ft.) The first series came with a matte dial and subsequently was replaced with a glossy white gold surround applied markers dial in the mid 1980's.
