Up for sale is a two tone Rolex Submariner with a stunning purple dial. As you may know, two tone and solid gold Rolex Submariners with blue dials from the early 1990s can sometimes age in a way where they start to exhibit shades of purple in certain lighting. Naturally, the vividness of the purple varies from dial to dial and I'd argue this example is one of the nicest that I have seen.

Details

Case & Bezel: Case is thick and in very good condition. Bezel is original and also in very good condition. Pip is original and has turned a cream color.

Dial, Hands and Crystal: Dial exhibits a vivid shade of purple in indirect and direct lighting and presents in very good condition. The lume on the hands and indices is tritium and has turned a light shade of cream. Hour hand has what appears to be a couple tiny marks/tears in the tritium (barely visible to the naked eye). Sapphire crystal is in excellent condition with no noticeable scratches.

Bracelet: Two tone Oyster bracelet is original to the watch with a matching 08 clasp code. Very good condition and minimal stretch. The coronet on the clasp shows good definition (not overpolished). 11 links in total.

Movement: Automatic, cal 3135. It was serviced by the previous owner in 2022 and keeps excellent time.

Summary: A two tone Submariner with a beautiful and uncommon dial.
