Notes
This 16618 remains in outstanding condition, with a great sharp
case and strong blue bezel insert. The blue dial has gracefully
aged over the past three decades and has turned a beautiful
purple hue that pops in the spring sun. The solid link yellow gold
Oyster bracelet is in fantastic tight condition and comprises all links.
