UK 1:1 Wholesale Super Clone Rolex Submariner ref. 1680 ‘Red’ Mk IV Watches
The high quality replica Rolex Submariner date began life in 1969 with the reference 1680 that featured a single red line of text at the bottom of the dial. History would come to know these early Sub date models as 1680 “red” references, or more commonly as as “a red Sub.” This feature can also be found in the Sea-Dweller collection during the same period. By the mid 1970s, after six slightly different iterations, the red dial gave way to a fully white white dial, but it is these early 1680 red Subs that most entice enthusiasts and collectors today for their somewhat odd inclusion of color. As one collector noted, “A dash of red text can make a grown man swoon.”
This example, which is available from H.Q. Milton features a Mk IV dial with a 2.2M serial case, making it one of the earliest such examples we’ve seen. The Mk IV dial is unique for being the first to layout the depth rating using the measurement in feet before the measurement in meters, known as a “feet first” dial. The number 6 in the depth rating text are also slightly open, and the word UK best copy Rolex Submariner watches are printed in red over a white base, which gives it a bit more pop at a glance. This example features a case that retains many of its original lines, and is offered as a full kit, with box, papers, and even coming with the hang tag. The bezel inserts on these references are easy to swap, but this example gets a beautifully faded option that pairs well with the matching hands and hour markers. This is what a red Sub should look like!
UK Swiss Movement Fake Rolex Submariner ref. 1680 ‘Red’ MkV Watches
The final appearances of so-called ‘red’ dials within the 1680 reference generally appear in the 4.0M serial number range, which runs right up to 1974. MkV and Mk VI are the final regular production red dials, and they represent the most common of the production span. These dials are “feet first” and get a slightly more closed 6 in the depth rating. The red cheap super clone Rolex Submariner watches are also printed directly onto the dial rather than over a white base. The Mk IV dial in particular is a transition to fully closed ‘6’s and presents an interesting point in the short evolution of the ‘red’ dial.
This 1680 red Sub, available from Tropical Watch, features a Mk IV dial and has a 3.0M serial number case, correctly placing it at 1972 in production. The hour markers and hands show matching age, which has taken it to a creamy off-white color against the matte black base. The case here looks like it has seen a refinishing, but does show signs of age which is a good thing. The lines are sharp and it looks to be in great condition for regular usage. This is paired with a nearly fully black bezel insert that matches the dial perfectly. Overall a beautiful online fake Rolex watches that would make for a great regular-wear candidate.
