Rolex Submariner Date Two-Tone Blue Dial

This item is a Rolex Submariner Date wristwatch, distinguished by its two-tone construction (steel and gold) and a vibrant blue dial and bezel. The watch features a classic Oyster case, likely in stainless steel, with prominent gold accents including the fluted unidirectional rotating bezel's edge, the winding crown, and the central links of the Oyster bracelet. The bezel insert is a deep royal blue with gold-colored minute markers for the first 15 minutes, and then Arabic numerals at 20, 30, 40, and 50, along with baton markers. The dial is also a matching blue, featuring luminous dot and baton hour markers, a triangular marker at 12 o'clock, and a date window at the 3 o'clock position magnified by a Cyclops lens. The hands are Mercedes-style, a signature Submariner feature, with luminous infill for legibility in low light. The bracelet is a hallmark Oyster design, combining polished gold center links with brushed steel outer links, secured by a fold-over clasp, which is not fully visible but is typical for this model. The overall condition appears good with minor signs of wear consistent with use, particularly some light scuffs on the metal surfaces, which is common for pre-owned watches. No major damage or repairs are apparent from the provided image. The watch exhibits a high level of craftsmanship, indicative of Rolex's quality standards, with precise finishing on the metal components and clear dial markings. This particular configuration, often referred to as 'Bluesy,' became available in various iterations starting in the late 1980s and continuing through recent models, placing its estimated age from late 20th to early 21st century.
