This item is being sold to organize my collection. I purchased this ultra-rare non-polished one-owner watch (with an original vintage NATO strap) about 20 years ago from Time Tunnel in Tabata. It has been kept in my collection and has not been used regularly, so for its age, it is an exceptionally fine piece. The listing starts at the same price I paid 20 years ago, making it quite the bargain. Compared to 20 years ago, Rolex prices have soared dramatically, and in the current market, similar fine pieces would likely retail for about twice the price at vintage watch shops. Model: TUDOR SUBMARINER Ref-7016/0 Small Rose Dial Serial: NO.845xxx Movement: Automatic cal.2483 Bezel Diameter: 39.5mm Strap: Unused original vintage NATO strap Maintenance Condition: Overhauled on January 9, 2026 Included: Japanese Rolex documentation (address and name are marked out with a magic pen) For this listing, I sent it for an overhaul at the Nakatsu Service Center of Japan Rolex, but I received a message stating that supplying parts from Switzerland was difficult. Thus, I had it serviced at a workshop by a first-class watch technician just recently, so it is ready for immediate comfortable use. Additionally, Japan Rolex does not provide serial numbers on counterfeit cases and returns a document stating it is not one of their products. Therefore, you can be assured that this watch is full original. *Please be aware it differs from common counterfeit variations with some aftermarket parts; rest assured. From global market trends, it is highly likely that pieces priced below 900,000 yen are fakes, so please avoid them. The Tudor Submariner model, characterized by the exceedingly rare Small Rose Ref.7016/0, was only produced from 1968 until 1969. *The logo switched from Small Rose to Shield after 1970. This particular vintage watch, born in 1968, is incredibly rare, showcasing the iconic ‘Small Rose’ logo. The bezel has aged from black to a faint purple, and the lugs still have their original stance, maintaining the best condition possible. Both the indices and hands show minimal aging, boasting a charming cream-colored patina that only enhances its vintage allure. I would like to pass this onto someone who will use and appreciate such a fine piece. If you are looking for a pristine Small Rose Submariner, please consider this piece. *Please note I am not a store that handles new items. As an amateur, I may overlook fine details during inspection, so please understand beforehand. *I cannot accept cancellations once a purchase is made to avoid any potential issues. *Please complete payment within 24 hours after winning the bid. *Rest assured, the item will be wrapped securely in bubble wrap before shipping.
