Rolex's 1978 Technical and Service Information describes Cal. 2030 as automatic, with sweep seconds, 28 jewels and hacking. It distinguishes the calendar-equipped Cal. 2035. Sotheby's and Antiquorum catalogue Cal. 2030 in individual 6718 watches. The exact-reference catalogues document those individual fitments; broader 6718 fitment and production dates remain unresolved.

Cal. 3035 ran from 1977 to 1988 in the 16800, 168000, 16808, and 16803. It was the first quickset Submariner caliber, with 27 jewels, a 28,800 vph frequency, 48 hours of reserve, hacking, and chronometer certification. Compared with the Cal. 1570 generation, it increased frequency from 19,800 vph and added a crown position that advances the date wheel directly. Its free-sprung Nivarox Breguet overcoil is regulated by four Microstella screws and protected by KIF Elastor.

Exact-reference auction catalogues ~~also~~ identify Cal. 3035 in Datejust ref. [[Reference:16003|16003]] examples. The 1977–1988 dates above apply to the listed Submariner references, not to the caliber’s full use across Rolex models.

Two construction details separate it from Cal. 3135. Its balance sits on a cantilevered cock, and its hairspring is glued to the stud. Cal. 3135 uses a bridge anchored at both ends and a laser-welded hairspring stud.
