The [[Reference:16800|16800]] is the transitional Submariner Date — the watch that carried the line from its vintage roots into the modern era. Introduced around 1979 as the successor to the [[Reference:1680|1680]], it arrived with three fundamental changes that would define the modern Submariner: a '''sapphire crystal''' (the first ever fitted to a Submariner), a 300-meter depth rating (up from 200m), and a quick-set date via the caliber 3035 movement. Production ran until approximately 1988, when the [[Reference:16610|16610]] took over for a 23-year reign. Between those two sat the transitional 168000 “Triple Zero.” | The [[Reference:16800|16800]] is the transitional Submariner Date — the watch that carried the line from its vintage roots into the modern era.
