Trade In
Details

The Submariner With Added Flare

The Rolex Submariner 16613 is a reference that perfectly encapsulates the shift from pure tool watch to a versatile luxury item. While maintaining the core functionality and robust design that defined the Submariner, the introduction of yellow gold and a blue dial elevates its presence. It offers the best of both worlds: a watch capable of deep-sea exploration, but with an aesthetic that seamlessly transitions to more formal settings.

A Distinctive Two-Tone Presentation

This 1990 example of the 16613 showcases the iconic two-tone aesthetic that has become a staple of Rolex's enduring appeal. The combination of stainless steel and yellow gold, paired with the blue dial and bezel, creates a visual impact that is both sophisticated and bold. It is a configuration chosen by those who appreciate the Submariner's pedigree but desire a more distinctive and luxurious expression of the model.

Good, Unpolished Condition

This example is in good overall condition. The stainless steel and yellow gold case is unpolished, retaining its original lines and character. The blue dial is clear and legible. The rotating bezel is in good shape. The Oyster bracelet, with 10 links, shows wear consistent with its age. As with every watch we offer, this piece has been verified as mechanically sound and is ready to wear.

The Everyday Statement Piece

For those seeking a highly capable diver with a distinctive sense of style, the two-tone Submariner 16613 makes a compelling case. It offers the legendary reliability and robust construction of a Rolex tool watch, enhanced by the yellow gold and the blue dial. This is a strong daily example for someone looking for a diver with an extra touch of distinction.

What Our Clients Say About Us

I knew I was gonna like Danny, based on his name, but nothing could’ve prepared me for how great of an experience this was. He had the most beautiful 70s Seamaster Cosmic on his website and I was set to be married 2 days later - I arranged to buy it but before leaving we both realized it needed to be serviced. I panicked, because I was literally buying this for my wedding, and Danny being the legend he is, loaned me a nearly identical Seamaster to make sure I could get through the event Never have I had someone go so above and beyond for me, especially while purchasing one of the lesser priced items in their inventory. He serviced my watch and exchanged it with me after the wedding on a super fast turnaround timeline. I would sincerely recommend you visit this guy, you will not be disappointed Edit: adding a pic of the loaner (two tone) and the owner (crosshair)

Great service and shop. Danny and his team were incredibly accommodating, professional, and kind. Great selection of vintage watches. Their store is the hidden gem in the diamond district.

This was my first real luxury watch purchase, a Rolex 15200 Date 34mm, I own Tissots and a Laco, but those are entry level luxury watches. I found Danny’s Vintage Watches online, and had great feedback both on Google, Chrono24 and the Reddit watch community. So decided to give him a shot as buying online can be a crap shoot. Ordered Monday night, was at my doorstep Friday morning. Despite the watch being over 30 years old, serial number says it’s from 91, the watch looked new. Didn’t come with box or papers, and was shipped in a plastic sleeve wrapped in bubble wrap. Danny was always available to answer questions. I’ll be buying from Danny again for the next purchase…saw a couple of Speedmasters on his site I liked….
